About This Book

A chronological narrative and critical analysis of a sudden armed insurrection in the capital, recounting how insurgents seized strategic points, established the central postal building as headquarters, and fought government forces across six tumultuous days. The account reconstructs street engagements, the eventual surrender and collapse, and the immediate political and social aftermath, including allegations of foreign support and public reaction. Alongside reportage, the author evaluates underlying causes, organisational failures on multiple sides, and the roles of leadership and propaganda, and advances proposals for reconstruction and constitutional remedies aimed at preventing renewed division.
