Commenting about this book, Mr. Illemakin Soyinka, son of Nobel Laureate, Professor Wole Soyinka said: ""Dead on Arrival" is a story of parallels. It mirrors the suffering, deprivation and the foibles of a village in Nigeria's Biafra and also symbolizes the larger society full of confounding contradictions. The novel is arrestingly authentic and utterly impressive". Continue...
Oluikpe pulls a lot of punches with this book and come to think of
it, the book is garnering rave reviews from readers far and wide already. Kudos
to our own Dr. Oluikpe for putting this together and wowing the international
audience with a thought provoking novel like this.

The title sounds intriguing...hope to read it. BGM
I'm surely gonna read this book
Dead on arrival is not just a novel u read like everyother book,you have to put your self in the place of the characters to be able to comprehend what this unique novel seeks to explain.
The effect of the civil war on a small family in the eastern part of the country.
from the first to thelast page,you are taken on a solemn journey of analysing how devastating effects of war could be on the family.
~BONARIO~says so via NOKIA3310
I bliv there are other things to write about except the civil war, too much books on the civil war..half of a yellow sun, there was a country etc. Write somtin else Jare.
Well, I am going to buy the kindle version but I think this novel is too short 169 page. I'll finish it in a sitting Mr. Paul, try to make your next book longer Chimamanda has shown us Nigerian writers can write up to 450 pages of novel. Thank you.
How try to get it so that I could read it #bright bravo#

Okay... Nice one!
Nigeria's Biafra......really? What was that? There was Nigeria and Biafra. Hopefully, Biafra will return.
Nice.....
I am happy that the Biafran story has not been exhausted.The genocide committed on the Igbos will always be fresh in our memories
Ok.ilemakin is commenting as what now?its not like his sense dey there like his papa.
I learnt it was Biafran war that caused some of "them" to be eating fellow human beings when the hunger was unbearable... However,I enjoyed "Because I am involved" written by Ojukwu..

Hmmm, Teacher Bonario. Pls take note that not everyone here are dumb or jobless, who ever see such a title shld knw. Some of us r writers ourselves, so keep the I too know for urself or r u d writer?
sounds interesting will love to read this book
Lol! 100k for your rent in school? You must be a joker and lazy person.
Achebe, soyinka, chimada etc all has written so many on Biafra can we read something else pls... #myopinion
i must get daht book. love literature
It's sad that stories/announcements such as these can only generate a few comments. Publish something about some half naked person or scandal and comments pour in. Linda publish o
We need to sound the story of the Biafran genocide loud and clear. You all want it muted cos it did not affect you. Every family in Igbo land lost someone,women lost their husbands and children to Nigerian bullets and starvation,entire families got wiped out,the pain is ever there, and therefore the memories will never go away. Pls also read " In Biafra Africa died". Our children need to know our history. More books pls. We speaking out now!
