Title	Nigeria: the edge of the abyss
Authors	Barling, K. and Akinrinade, O.
Abstract	Even by Nigeria’s standards political events over the past few months have been extraordinary. With the death of the head of state, General Sani Abacha, from a heart attack in June, swiftly followed by the death of the imprisoned opposition leader Chief Moshood Abiola in similar circumstances, Nigeria has been plunged into a crisis as deep as that which led to the outbreak of civil war in 1967.
