...condemnation, gratitude to distrust. Powerful Southern Democrats have accused McGovern of trying to "ram proportional representation" down their throats.

Whatever happened, Biafrans resent the foreigners for working in Nigeria for ENl's marketing arm, AGIP. Ojukwu is convinced that without the oil royalties Nigeria receives from continuing drilling operations, his cash-short enemy would soon be brought to the negotiating table.
