BORN FREE IN CHAINS: AN AFRICAN POLITICAL EPIC
BORN FREE IN CHAINS: AN AFRICAN POLITICAL EPIC

Summary/Abstract: This contribution is directed at the generic problems of an African nation-state and the profound discomfitures of the country’s citizenry. The disconcertments of these citizens essentially emanate from some seemingly unending national miseries. The specific area of study is the West African Nigerian state where the average inhabitants are hypothesized to be born free in chains. The article is considered significant in the context of globalization since in the prevailing understanding there is ostensibly an immensely interrelated humanity. Still within the context of common humanity, the study area is the most populated nation in Africa and the seventh-most populated state on earth. The auguries of an enduring generic anguish in this location accordingly demands scholarly attention. It is envisaged that the attendant research disclosures would lead to further theoretical and empirical interests in the affairs of this unarguably besmirched polity. The article is intended as an intervention into why in the 21st century; citizens of some segments of the global order are still validly depicted as being born free in chains.
