Mammy Water and Her Women’s Cult during the Nigeria-Biafra War in Oguta
ABSTRACT The Nigeria-Biafra war, which lasted from 1967 to 1970, was fought on various fronts and in various tactics. Although the war was about the independence of the Republic of Biafra from Nigeria, for Oguta people of Southeastern Nigeria, it was a challenge to their goddess, Mammy Water and the people’s faith in her to protect their lives and properties. This paper, thus, studies the involvement of Mammy Water and her women cult during the Nigeria-Biafra war in Oguta. The findings indicated that the intervention of the goddess and her cult members in the war is a well-known event in Oguta.
