My dad tells me the Biafran story with so much pain written all over his face. He never fails to narrate in details to anyone who cares to listen, of how he wore his boot for almost a year without taking it off, and when one finally manages to take it off, some part of the flesh comes off with the boot, or how you will be walking with a fellow soldier, and within a split second he is gunned down right in front of you, amongst other heart wrenching events. He fought as a Biafran soldier at the age of 17. Still waxing strong till date . God bless all our fathers who fought for us to be here.

I was one of Biafra youngest boy age 11 years old who survived Birtish and Nigeria Genocide war. The first day I went to war front at Ngor okpala Biafra soldiers was very upset with me coming to war front. I was with SS Brigade one of the powerful and strongest flightier. Biafra soldiers came out from the trench and pleaded and asked me to go back home, I told them am sorry sir I am not going any where. Four of the Biafra soldiers started crying and said I will get killed. I was very happy with Biafra soldiers in the war front and in the trench. Every one of the Biafra soldiers was very happy. Every Biafra soldiers and none soldiers are my heroes. My prayer today and tomorrow what happened In 1967 to 1971 Nigeria and Biafra should not happen again in Jesus Name Amen. Nigeria politicians and Government have forgot Nigeria pass history. War is not the best way to solve problems. Peace is the key for all things

@@lawlyshewroteeven the independence struggle had many Igbos in prominence……probably more than any other ethnic group. The massacre of women protesters in Aba in 1929 by the colonial masters caused massive outrage in the UK, and probably marked the beginning of the reconsideration of colonialism by the British. What other fight are you talking about? Before independence the North, the East and the West were administered separately……even independently of each other, so the question of fighting themselves didn’t arise at all. The only interaction was at the level of individuals who chose to live in regions other than their ancestral regions. With the British in control, the various tribes were kept away from the throats of one another. Truth be told, considering everything that’s happened in Nigeria, I fully expect Nigeria to splinter into several countries eventually. There’s been too much bloodshed, and the hatred is still visible and raw, as was clear for all to see during the 2023 elections. With this mutual hatred, transmitted through the generations to even our youth today, I see no hope of true national integration at all. This country is just sitting on a keg of gunpowder and waiting for the right conditions to ignite it into a raging inferno.

Reason ; To preserve British Investment in Nigeria oil & Gas located in the South East Nigeria for the Economy of Britain & America while Russia too wanted a Share of it .Biafrans demonstrated Bravery , Courage , and great Ingenuity(Science, Research &Technological Inventions) during the war effort .

It is not helping when some (and I want to emphasise SOME) foreign nationals commit heinous crimes such as selling drugs, raping women, forcing young girls into prostitution, etc. A recent announcement by Government shows that there are more Zimbabwean/Mozambican/Lesotho/Nigerian prisoners in SA than there are South African prisoners in any of those countries.

With a heavy heart I write these; while we have a fantastic "videomentary" of the Biafra/Nigeria war , it's very important to highlight the immediate and remote causes of the war; (1) A heavy "pogrom" , literally; the killing of the "Igbos" in the Northern parts of Nigeria, for reasons best known to Northerners, for a long time, resulting in thousands of cruel deaths and even more being displaced and restless, Gowon was only making empty promises to end these killings of the Igbos in the North (2) The sudden denial and dismissal of the "Aburi Accord" agreements by Gowon, which were reached in Ghana by Ojukwu and Gowon, in the presence of the then Ghanaian Head of State as well as other notable African leaders, which prompted Ojukwu's insistence of controlling the revenue from his area aside crude, and Gowon having all the military might, and wealth from oil revenue, went and "struck first" Now if u are unbiased and dispassionate about the whole thing, tell me if the situation is now in 2022 different from what happened in 1967?

Thank you for sharing the detailed and well explained video. I now understand the rationale behind the clamours and agitation for Biafra. it's so pathetic that history isn't a compulsory subject like mathematics and english in schools today. many Nigerians would have known alot of things about this war but unfortunately they haven't because history isn't majorly taught in schools today.

When men, where men. So sad that, such history were never taught at schools. Biafran’s has really sacrificed a lot, uncountable number of men and resources has been sacrificed for this struggle, both in the past and present. May the souls of all our departed heroes, especially my dad rest in the bosom of the lord. My dad was a war veteran, he was 18 when the war broke out, he later explained everything to me, how they fought tirelessly day and night to actualize Biafra. In all, let peace prevail

Yakubu Gowon should take the responsibility of this barbarism against the IBO people. He had a chance to resolve this problem with the agreements of the Aburi Accord in Ghana which he fully understood in Ghana and accepted it but change his mind on getting back to Nigeria because of they were not in the interest of the North.

You are funny, we pray such don’t happen because just as we all think the biafarns have improved, we have to know that the Nigeria military has a lot of stunts to pull also and it’s innocent civilians that will be killed. I still wonder why the biafrans had to kill and commit atrocities on those from the Midwest state because they choose to be neutral instead of them to seek for their support. It’s funny how some group of youths caused the Nigerian civil war due to pride.
