The  violence of the war makes working in the rubber plantation risky.  Toje as a business man is severely affected  by the war.  Even though his business and  influence flourish as a result of the war, the war also gives him the opportunity  to indulge in evil acts.  He enjoys the  confidence of the military and this explains why he is able to get the military  to put Oshevire in detention.  Toje makes  a lot of money by supplying food to the military.
                    He  uses his money to attract and seduce Aku who is reduced to penury by the  detention of her husband.
                    Many  of the candidates gave only the negative impact of the war.  The question was well attempted.
