dc.descriptionThe Issue 2856 of West Africa Magazine (week ending 10th March 1972) mixes economic triumph and activism. Published in London and Nigeria, it leads with Nigeria’s bold move to clear war-era debts, reviews a scathing exposé of Mobutu’s Congo, and crunches trade numbers. Expect post-war optimism and Cold War shadows. Key stories: Nigeria clears its non-arms import bills (Nigeria pays in full), signalling recovery; Books spotlights La Grande mystification du Congo-Kinshasa (Maspero), a fierce critique of Mobutu’s brutality; Commercial news notes three African countries snub a trade fair, while UK exports to the Commonwealth beat EU sales. A compact issue of geopolitics and cheques Africa flexes its muscles.
