In his latest book entitled, We Are All Biafrans,
Chido Onumah offers a very powerful discourse of Nigeria by imposing on the
observable claims of marginalisation by every other group against the Nigerian
State the metaphor of Biafranism. Every other group is selling that
narrative about its own place in the Nigerian set up. In other words, they are
doing what the Igbos took to a very high level in the late 1960s by declaring
sovereignty, a move to which the Nigerian State responded by declaring a police
action.
