SynopsisExamining the complexity of the nature and outcome of the Biafra War, Africa's bloodiest war of the 20th century, this text considers the alienation imperative of the Western-created post-colonial state. The author argues that this state is historically flawed and does not serve the interests of the African peoples. He contends instead that a post-post-colonial state evolving from internal African conditions and priorities offers Africa the way forward to avoid horrendous conflicts such as Biafra.
