description: This work provides a close examination of African cyclic symbols, spatial categories, architecture, visual art, and ritual life. The author argues that these reveal the cosmo-biological bond connecting all of God's creation. Any society-church or state-that nurtures structural injustice deliberately, keeps the majority in abject poverty and installs mental and physical slavery eventually only prepares the basis for social violence and internecine civil war. Rev. Fr. Dr. Simeon Onyewueke Eboh is a Catholic priest of the Catholic Diocese of Orlu, Nigeria. Presently he lectures at Catholic Institute of West Africa (CIWA), Port Harcourt Rivers State Nigeria. His books include Church-State Relations in Nigeria (1984), The Theology of Law and the African Church (2004), and Legal Theories and African Concept of Law (2004).
