Biafra: The Folly of “One, united,indivisible Nigeria”. The Owners of Nigeria’s Resources has become the “Slaughtered cow”. – Authored and Edited by Comr. Onuoha Endurance, for CIVIL RIGHTS ADVOCATES OF NIGERIA (CRAN)
From the eve of July 29, 1966 over 270 Igbo senior military officers were killed in Abeokuta, Ibadan , Lagos, Zaria etc… As this butchery of human beings was going on in what was tagged a retaliatory coup, the northern officers declared araba… Ferried their families home to secede from the rest of British Nigeria…
But this plan was discarded when Britain sold the idea of oil to them and how they will profit from taking control of the oil…
As the killing of military officers of Igbo origin was getting to a climax, the Northern civilians unleashed their cubs and machetes on innocent civilians all through the North… People were cut into pieces.. In 30 days, over 20,000 Igbo lives were mowed down by this sheer barbarism. What a folly of “one ,united, indivisble ” Nigeria.
In those days, rail transportation was the major means of traveling to the East from the North.. So when the train departed, one will have to wait for its return before another set of Igbo could depart the North…
The orgy for violence in the Northern civilians was without limits… Students killed their Igbo teachers… Colleagues at work killed their fellow Igbo colleagues..

For days, the Igbo seeking refuge from the Northern progrom were denied food and water… They started crying until they gradually died off. What a folly of “one, united, indivisible Nigeria”.
More than 6 million Biafran children and women from the East were gruesomely and atrociously murdered and humiliated by all manner of unimaginable means including starvation by the world cospiracy in an uncivil, evil war usually refered to a “civil” war perpetrated by the North under British watch.
More than 700 Igbo men,women, girls and boys from the East were slaughtered and gruesomely massacred at Asaba on July 10,1967 while they wore whites and waved “palm branches” of welcome to the Hausa-Fulani Federal troops heading across the Niger to wipeout their kit and kind after being brainwashed we are not of same origin. What a folly of “one,united and indivisible Nigeria.
Up until now, there has been no National apology for this savagely act neither has there been any reparations paid, no reconciliatory moves done, no reconstruction carried out and
