Publisher's Synopsis
Yamtarawala, the Warrior King is a historical drama that revisits the socio-political convulsions in 16th century Kanem-Bornu Empire, where leadership tussle by two princes led to the breaking away of the elder son, Yamtarawala, with72 loyalists, in search of a new empire in Nigeria to dominate. With historical echoes in ancient Yemen and north African civilisations, the tragic play, which captures the intrigues of traditional warfare and the zeitgeist of the era, interrogates the quest for power by fair means or foul.
