When the Military decrees that a crime carrying a prison
sentence now retroactively warrants summary execution, confusion
and fear permeate a society where the brutality and injustice
of military rule is parodied by life inside prison
Based on events in Nigeria in the early 1980s, Wole Soyinka's stage play From Zia with Love and radio play A Scourge of Hyacinths were produced in the early 90s when the writer was exiled by Sani Abacha's notorious and murderous military regime
