Nigerian Gods
Nigerian Gods is an enlightening and sobering review of the impact of the introduction of the three main Abrahamic religions on Nigeria's traditional religions, culture and way of life, viewed through the prism of eleven of the largest and two of the smallest ethnic groups.
Kome Otobo gives here a factual and acute description and presentation of the main characteristics of the major ethnic groups in Nigeria - historical background and socio-political structures, demography, traditional religions, differing impacts of Judaism, Christianity, Islam, and major occupations and modes of existence - which should serve to propel all to a fuller assessment of the complexities of the directions which a Post-Covid-19 World is tending rapidly, with ethnically and racially exploited differences jumping to the fore to question erstwhile dominant political ideologies and political arrangements based on them.
The 13 ethnic groups discussed in Nigerian Gods are: Edo-Bini, Fulani, Hausa, Ibibio-Efik, Igbo, Ijaw, Isoko, Ìtsẹkírì, Kanuri, Nupe, Tiv, Urhobo and Yorùbá.
