Více o knize
The book delves into the roots of religious violence in postindependence Nigeria, linking it to the colonial imposition of diverse ethnic groups. Abiodun Alao explores how Christianity, Islam, and traditional religions have been manipulated by elites and politics, fueling discord. He examines the histories of these faiths, the impact of colonization, and the rise of Islamic radicalization alongside Christian violence, including the emergence of Boko Haram. Through this analysis, the work sheds light on the complexities of intergroup relations in modern Nigeria.
