DescriptionHouse of War is a chronicle of the bitter and bloody struggle for political power in Nigeria’s Second Republic especially among the followers of Chief Obafemi Awolowo. This is the story of the schism in the Awo camp and how Awoists turned against Awoists in the great scramble for office. It exposes the politicians’ grand auction of principles and political intrigues, manoeuvres, double-dealings, back- stabbings, stealing of votes, burning and killing, that characterised the Second Republic; especially during the 1983 elections.
