Divine Rage: a tear for Biafra

Divine Rage is a cry from the heart; a poetic depiction of the contemporary Biafran struggle for independence. It harps on the dysfunctional nature of the Nigerian society coupled together by the British in the 20th Century. Divine Rage brings to the fore, the clay legs of the Nigerian contraption and its wobbly nature that has entrapped within, millions of people. Included in this amalgam of nations inside Nigeria are Biafrans, a boisterous people focused on freedom they had enjoyed for millennia before the obtuse British arrived the scene. Defeated in a war of independence between 1967- 1970, Biafrans have refused to let go their quest for independence fueled more by a Nigerian nation hell bent on eliminating them physically.This work is a reminder and a call to the world that another colossal disaster is once more threatening the people of Biafra in a nation that had long rejected them, yet refuses to let them go. May the world never allow a repeat of the 1966 - 1970 genocide? Unfortunately the signs are all there that the world wants to let it happen again.
