It is the late 1960s in Nigeria. Debbie Ogedemgbe, daughter of a corrupt Nigerian government minister, defies her parents by joining the army. Torn between the traditional role of a Nigerian woman and her desire to take an active part in the struggle, her inner conflict reflects the violence around her.

Unfortunately, the writing in Destination Biafra is pretty clunky. I am not sure if JOM was better, or if I am more discerning now.
I picked this up after having read the wonderful [Half a Yellow Sun]. I wanted to know more about the Biafran War. Emecheta spends more time explaining how the British attempts to manipulate their former colony contributed to the bloodbath that was Biafra. This was interesting. Also, an interesting perspective on women and war. ( )
