Description

Peacekeeper Lover is the story of a young Nigerian, Ambrose Imoke, whose ambition is to follow in the footsteps of his late father into the army and win medals like him. His mother is vehemently against it because his father was killed in combat in the Nigerian civil war. Through his persistence and support of his uncle Frank, he is commissioned into the army. This exposes him to knowledge of the civil wars in Liberia and Sierra Leone and his country's role in the monitoring group, ECOMOG. In the absence of opportunities for combat operations, he accepts a peacekeeping assignment as head of an ECOMOG force in war-torn Sierra Leone. There he falls in love with a medical student. The book takes the reader into the thick of some of the battles for the control of key mining towns. War and love are played out around the uncertainties of the fading stages of the war and the unsettled differences between the girl's mother and father over his father's determination to join the war and Ambrose's intention to marry their daughter.
