FIRST of the published triadic collection, An African Eclipse had appeared in 1999 as Chin Ce began writing political poetry, maturing in an era of frequent military interventions in the political life of the Nigerian people.

It painted a poetic landscape of African history and politics filled with treachery and betrayals by the ruling elite.

In the second edition Chin Ce promises same mood and tenor with artistic relevance for contemporary developments in our collective evolution not only as Africans but galactic humans.

The gruesome details of post colonial African politics and survivalism are most poignantly etched as interdictions but which challenge the audience with the onus of alternate realities.
