In The Digital State, Kelechi weaves a powerful narrative linking the legacy of the Nigeria-Biafra War to the emerging digital infrastructure of modern Nigeria. This is not just a book about technology-it is a story of memory, exclusion, survival, and power.
- How forgotten histories shape today's digital inequalities.
- What civic tech, ID systems, and data policies reveal about national priorities.
- Why Biafra was never just a secession-it was a prototype for self-sufficiency.
- How digital tools can either heal or deepen historical wounds.
Narrated with the urgency of history and the precision of a digital architect.
Includes references to real historical events in Nigeria and the Biafra War.
A timely reflection on inclusion, civic tech, and the ethics of digital governance.
Ideal for readers of history, governance, tech, and Pan-African thought. What happens when a state forgets its history-and builds its future on a glitchy foundation?
