NO LONGER AT EASE AT THE CENTRE

THE TRAVAIL OF CHRISTIANS IN KWARA STATE NIGERIA An Indigenes Witness Time-Lines Account

Viac o knihe

Focusing on the Hijab crises in Ilorin, the book explores the historical and cultural evolution of the city, founded in 1450 by the Yoruba. Once a military hub of the Oyo Empire, it transitioned through colonial rule and became a melting pot of Islamic and Christian influences, particularly during the 1970s. The narrative draws parallels with Chinua Achebe's works, reflecting the struggles of Christians in Kwara State through the author's personal experiences. The titles of the previous books serve as a homage to Achebe while addressing contemporary issues in the region.
