In the European scamble for Africa towards the end of the 19th
century, Britain declared itself for the Oil Rivers Protectorate to
gain monopoly of the palm oil trade in what is now part of the land
it put together as a country. Later it formed the first Federation
of Nigeria with the former Royal Niger Company as its principle
commercial operator, and the indigenous people of tha area, the
Niger Delta, the suppliers of raw materials that Britian needed for
its factories. The author is one of Africa's foremost poets.
Drawing upon offcial documents and the oral tradition he presents a
powerful panorama of the players in the original drama of the
creation of Nigeria.
