3rd World Junta and the Orkar Coup
by Aja Patrick Tarkende
Synopsis
In a gripping exposé of one of Nigeria's most audacious political uprising, AJA PATRICK TARKENDE unpacks the tangled web of ambition, ideology and desperation that fuelled what is known today in Nigeria as the failed Orkar Coup of 1990. Set against the turbulent backdrop of third world militarism, ' 3rd World Junta and the Orkar Coup,' goes beyond the headlines to explore the deeper fissures within Nigeria's post-colonial state - ethnic tension, uneven power distribution and the dangerous allures of military interventions. This account of Maj. Gideon Gwaza Orkar's bold but doomed attempt to redraw Nigeria's political map raises urgent questions about nationhood, justice and the cyclical grip of authoritarianism in developing nations and to confront the unforgettable truth behind Nigeria's struggle to forge a unified democratic identity.
