Download or read book The Asaba Massacre written by S. Elizabeth Bird and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2017-07-31 with total page 259 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In October 1967, early in the Nigerian Civil War, government troops entered Asaba in pursuit of the retreating Biafran army, slaughtering thousands of civilians and leaving the town in ruins. News of the atrocity was suppressed by the Nigerian government, with the complicity of Britain, and its significance in the subsequent progress of that conflict was misunderstood. Drawing on archival sources on both sides of the Atlantic and interviews with survivors of the killing, pillaging and rape, as well as with high-ranking Nigerian military and political leaders, S. Elizabeth Bird and Fraser M. Ottanelli offer an interdisciplinary reconstruction of the history of the Asaba Massacre, redefining it as a pivotal point in the history of the war. Through this, they also explore the long afterlife of trauma, the reconstruction of memory and how it intersects with justice, and the task of reconciliation in a nation where a legacy of ethnic suspicion continues to reverberate.

Download or read book Father Daughter Succession in Family Business written by Paul W. Thurman and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2016-04-22 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To whom does a father, retiring from his life as a successful entrepreneur, pass control of the business he has built? Once it would always have been his eldest son, but increasingly women are becoming involved in family firms having risen to positions of influence and leadership. Using revealing case studies from the daughters who succeeded their entrepreneur fathers in a wide variety of challenging situations, cultures and continents, Father-Daughter Succession in Family Business discusses the changes which have led to daughters gaining influence in more and more family businesses. It looks at the tensions this succession can produce between old notions of how men and women should behave, and the new style of leadership that often comes about when a woman takes the helm. This book will help consultants, business educators, and researchers, as well as those who are themselves involved in significant family managed enterprises to better understand why it can no longer be assumed in any part of the World that the first born son will take over the reins of the family business.

Download or read book New Perspectives on the Nigeria Biafra War written by Chima J. Korieh and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2021-10-13 with total page 429 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: New Perspectives on the Nigeria-Biafra War: No Victor, No Vanquished analyzes the continued impact of the Nigeria-Biafra war on the Igbo, the failure of the reconstruction and reconciliation effort in the post-war period, and the politics of exclusion of the memory of the war in public discourse in Nigeria. Furthermore, New Perspectives on the Nigeria-Biafra War explores the resilience of the Igbo people and the different strategies they have employed to preserve the history and memory of Biafra. The contributors argue that the war had important consequences for the socio-political developments in the post-war period, ushering in two differing ideologies: a paternalistic ideology of “co-option” of the Igbo by the Nigerian state, under the false premise of ‘No Victor, No Vanquished,” and the Igbo commitment to self-preservation on the other.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nigeria nation is like footprints you saw on a beach in the morning, so new that you don’t really know who and who came to the beach last night… But as the day brightens, and the sun rises from the Eastern horizon, the sun will shine on the hidden facts, and what is hidden becomes known. Sometimes, whatever we have read sinks into our memory and are foreshortened. Some also find it hard to accept when the real truth has surfaced. It may later be evoked again and set against a different background with the result that the person, who was a victim of well-crafted propaganda, will eventually know the truth. Still, the toughest job is to bring him out of his old mental state when he was bombarded with the false information. One thing is certain; this book is comprehensive and lucid information of how Cain murdered his brothers in cold blood. We know that General Cain, who murdered his brothers, is not himself mentally today. He was so involved in every military coup in Nigeria. He brought a lot of curses and curses on his children and generation to come. Blood symbolizing life and is the element of God, and human is a mortal clone of God. There is a high penalty in the shedding of human blood. He who spills the human blood, by human will his blood be spilled, for in the image of God he made the human- (Gen 9:6). General Cain, do you know that the voice of your fellow soldier’s blood is crying out to me from the land? Don’t try to tell me: “am i my brother’s keeper? There will be retributive justice, if not you, your children or family members will pay for it…
