What Queen Elizabeth II’s Death Exposes About Biafra

First published in my column, #TheAlternative, in today’s ThisDay.

When on Thursday, September 8, 2022, Her Majesty, Queen Elizabeth II passed on into ancestor-hood, I was not particularly moved. I like England. I schooled and worked there and those years were some of the best of my life. The English people are by far some of the most decent peoples on planet Earth.

However, I am rather indifferent about their monarch. I did not like or dislike Queen Elizabeth II. The only thing I can think of that I admire in her is her stoicism. Her ability to take pain and pleasure with equanimity. She is the epitome of duty and a stiff upper lip.

But I doubt that I bothered much about her and her goings on. I was just aloof.

So, while I was not one of those mourning, it was not because I had some grudge against the House of Windsor. No. It is just that the House of Ginuwa (the first Olu of Warri), mattered more to me than Buckingham Palace.

The above not withstanding, I was absolutely mortified by the hideous and historically inaccurate things that were said about the Queen and her family by a Nigerian woman living in America, whose name I will not dignify by mentioning.

I later got to find out that this woman has other issues, which made me understand her bitterness better, though I still vehemently reject her indecorous words.

She was one of the people who famously celebrated the death of TB Joshua and called him all sorts of unprintable names when he died. So it is no big surprise that she has turned her vitriol in the direction of the late Queen.

And so now, let me tackle what the death of Queen Elizabeth II reveals about Biafra. It shows us as a people not aware of our history, and because we are not aware of our own history, we have distorted it, such that propaganda and pseudo history has been orally passed down from one generation to the other, feeding unfounded bitterness that is destroying those who harbour it, and having no effect on those against whom they are embittered.

That is why some people believe they were just sitting down minding their business and Hausa people came to fight them (all Northerners are Hausa to some people) because they hate them. There was absolutely no provocation, or igniting events that preceded the Nigerian Civil War. Hausa people just woke up on the wrong side of the bed and for some strange reason decided to pounce on the people of Eastern Nigeria.

But of course, that is not what happened. However, because we do not write our history, and even worse, we have refused to teach it in our schools, there are millions of people who believe this version of events. In fact, they swear by it.

One fellow named Uche Nnaya even tweeted at me that the Igbos of Southeast Nigeria had a right to rail against the British monarch and the rest of Nigeria, because “you can’t push people to the wall and dictate how they react.”

Really? But do those who hold such views not know that some other persons were FIRST pushed to the wall? Uche’s response will also justify how those who were first pushed to the wall reacted.

We cannot keep holding grudges as if other people do not have their own grudges that they have let go for the peace and unity of this country called Nigeria.

My great uncle, Chief Festus Okotie-Eboh, was shot and killed in the street by Major Chris Anuforo on January 15, 1966. Ironically, I went to school with Anuforo’s son. Should my people carry that grudge forever?

Sir Abubakar Tafawa Balewa was shot on the street like a common criminal by Major Emmanuel Ifeajuna. Ifeajuna tried to deny it, and claimed that Alhaji Balewa died from an asthma attack, until his body was taken to LUTH and examined by the then minister for health, Dr. Moses Majekodunmi. It was established that the body was riddled with bullets in a front page story in Daily Times, written by Segun Osoba, who later became the Governor of Ogun. He is still alive.

This was an incorruptible gentleman. He lived a very ascetic life. Materialism was FAR from him. He was an author. His book, Shaihu Umar, was the first novel written in Hausa. He surrounded himself with Southerners (in hindsight, was that a mistake?). His best friend was Matthew Mbu. Should the Tafawa-Balewa family and the people of Bauchi, where he was from, hold a grudge forever?

I could go on and on and list the people killed on January 15, 1966, and the identities of their killers, but that would just be reopening old wounds. These are historical facts, which some people deny and pretend as if the Civil War happened in a vacuum.

So, please let us stop pretending as if the late Queen Elizabeth II came to Nigeria and ignited a war. The Nigerian Civil War was ignited by a series of unfortunate events that began with the cold blooded murder of 22 people from the Northern, Western, and Mid Western regions by people of mostly Eastern region origin, which led to a counter coup by Northern Nigerian military officers on July 29, 1966, and the unfortunate pogrom of 66-67.

Many people now spewing vitriol against the late Queen Elizabeth II for her alleged role in the Nigerian Civil War conveniently forget that between August 9, 1967 and September 20, 1967, Biafran forces invaded and occupied the Midwest region, and named Albert Nwazu Okonkwo, as military Governor of the Midwest. A number of non Igbo speaking Mid-Westerners lost their lives during the Biafran occupation of the Midwest.

After the Midwest was liberated by forces led by colonels Murtala Muhammed and Benjamin Adekunle, more Mid-Westerners, this time those linguistically linked to the Igbo (especially in the Asaba axis), were killed. Please research it before you insult me.

I need to add that the killings by the liberating forces were worse than the killings of the Biafrans, and should truly have been declared war crimes.

Yet, in that same Midwest, we accepted Nigerians of Southeast origin back after the war. We did not seize their properties in the abandoned property saga that occurred in the Port Harcourt area and its environs. We let bygones be bygones.

The truth of the matter is that If the January 15, 1966 coup had never happened, it is most unlikely that the Nigerian Civil War would have occurred. The perpetrators of that coup opened a Pandora’s Box that the rest of Nigeria are still suffering from today!

There was wild jubilation all over Nigeria after that coup, because Nigerians believed it was a patriotic and nationalistic coup. Then the names of those killed were announced over the radio, and it was discovered that only people from the North, West and Midwest were killed, but NOBODY from the East was killed, whereas the vast majority of those who carried out the coup were from the East.

That is the remote cause of the Nigerian Civil War. We will remember it. We will also teach it to our children, so that it does not reoccur.

So, to just keep nursing grudges and reopening old wounds will do no one any good. You can bully others into submission, but you cannot do it to Reno Omokri. I know history and I am a meticulous record keeper!

It is only those who are ignorant about how the British government works that will blame the late Queen for the actions of the British government. She was a titular and ceremonial head of state, whose actions were limited to appointing the candidate who has won election directly or indirectly as prime minister, and declaring open the parliament. She was a symbol. She was not the initiator of the policies of the British government.

And even the British government are not to blame for the Nigerian Civil War. We must learn to take responsibility for our own actions. That war was the result of the ill advised January 15, 1966 coup.

The coup itself was led by Majors Chukwuma Kaduna Nzeogwu and Ifeajuna. It was executed by the following persons:

1. Kaduna Nzeogwu
2. Emmanuel Ifeajuna
3. Timothy Onwuatuegwu
4. Adewale Ademoyega
5. Chris Anuforo
6. Humphrey Chukwuka
7. Donatus Okafor

Of these seven people, only one, Adewale Ademoyega, was non Igbo. The rest were all Igbo, although Major Nzeogwu was what was referred to at that time as Midwest Igbo (later colloquially referred to as Bendel Igbo and now as Delta Igbo). Major Donatus Okafor’s mother was Tiv. However, his father was Igbo.

Incidentally, some Igbos unwisely try to deny that Nzeogwu was Igbo, and call him ‘your South-South’ brother. Unknown to them, the more they do this, the more they make non Igbos feel that those specific Igbos who say that have learned very little since the civil war.

22 people were killed during the coup, including

1. Abubakar Tafawa Balewa
2. Ahmadu Bello
3. Ahmed Ben Musa
4. Hafsatu Bello
5. Ahmed Pategi
6. Samuel Ladoke Akintola
7. Festus Okotie-Eboh
8. Brig. Samuel Ademulegun
9. Brig. Zakariya Maimalari
10. Col. Ralph Shodeinde
11. Col. Kur Mohammed
12. Lt. Col. Abogo Largema
13. Lt. Col. James Pam
14. Lt. Col. Arthur Unegbe
15. Sergeant Daramola Oyegoke
16. Mrs Latifat Ademulegun
17. Zarumi Sardauna
18. PC Yohana Garkawa
19. Lance Corporal Musa Nimzo
20. PC Akpan Anduka
21. PC Hagai Lai
22. Philip Lewande

As is clear from the list above, none of them were from the then Eastern Nigeria. . (I have since learned that Lt. Col. Arthur Unegbe was Igbo. He was in charge of weaponry in Lagos, and was killed when he refused to cooperate with Major Chris Anuforo).

After the coup, Major General Johnson Aguiyi-Ironsi took over. Rightly, or wrongly, the rest of the nation felt that a coup carried out by overwhelmingly Eastern officers, and of which the victims were entirely non Easterners, and which supplanted a Northern minority leader (Tafawa-Balewa), with an Igbo leader, (Aguiyi-Ironsi) was a set up.

However, Major General Aguiyi-Ironsi’s promise to try the coup plotters placated the rest of the country. Sadly, the plotters were jailed, but were never tried. And the immediate cause of the July 29, 1966 counter coup was when rumours circulated that the coup plotters had been receiving full salaries in jail and were to be promoted.

These are facts that we all should address, rather than blaming the late Queen Elizabeth II for a war she did not cause, nor had anyway of stopping. And if we do not learn from our history, there is every possibility that another war might erupt in Nigeria.

The Biafrans inflicted a very harsh occupation on present day Rivers, Cross Rivers and Akwa-Ibom, as well as present day Delta and Edo before they were flushed out by federal forces. The Bayelsa area escaped the brunt of Biafran occupation due to the fight back from Isaac Adaka Boro. They invaded Ore and hundreds of soldiers and civilians died. There is still a Yoruba proverb about the amount of people that died in Ore. Ask a Yoruba person to tell you the meaning of ‘o le ku ija Ore.

We have all forgiven and moved on. Yet, you want to reopen these old wounds and make them cancerous by blaming Queen Elizabeth II 50 years after the war?

And when you point this out, the very same people castigating the late Queen will accuse you of creating ethnic tension? Do you want to be victims and victors at the same time? Leave the woman and her family to grieve in peace. By celebrating the Queen’s death, you are giving Nigeria a very nasty reputation that will affect all of us and not only you. We cannot afford to be seen as a nation with anti British and American sentiments, when we are not able to get a better deal from China and Russia.

Reno sha,,,that guy really get time


Anyways,,u guys should vote the only viable alternate peter obi,,,make Nigeria great by voting the right candidate..

Does he not know uju anya's handle. Kindly tag her if he is not a coward.

Remakably, Reno gave the version of events he likes, and skipped all the injustice meted out to Igbos

I dont blame him, his ethnic group did not lose 3 million people, so it is easy for him to talk about moving on

Reno can never talk about the Igbos massacred in Jos in 1945

He can never talk about Igbos massacred in Kano in 1953

He can never talk about the 300 Igbo officers including General Ironsi, murdered in the counter-coup of 1966

Reno will never talk about the over 30,000 Igbos murdered all over Nigeria in the pogrom of 1966

Reno will never tell you how Gowon betrayed the Aburi agreement he signed with Ojukwu in Ghana, and that this is what forced Ojukwu to declare Biafra and led to war

Reno will never talk about the over 3 million Igbos killed in the civil war

But Reno can tell you about the first coup of 1966, the officers that carried it out, and the victims. He knows this because its something that he can use against Igbos

In other words, Reno is only good at remembering the bad Igbos are supposed to have done, but develops memory loss at the bad that was done to Igbos

Reno is just an Igbo hater. He is a typical 'one Nigerianist' who hates Igbos, and for purely selfish reasons, will never agree that Igbos exit Nigeria and form their own country.

Reno is just too biased against Igbos and I urge my fellow Igbos to forget this bigot of a man who no longer hides his hate for them

THIS WRITE UP BY RENO OMOKRI IS A COMPLETE REVISIONIST HISTORY.



I DONT KNOW WHY THIS MAN, FEELS THE NEED OR URGE TO ATTACH HIMSELF TO EVERY IGBO AFFAIR IN NIGERIA.



HE KEEPS DISPLAYING HIS IGNORANCE.


THE 1966 COUP WAS NOT THE ONLY COUP IN NIGERIA.



WE HAD SEVERAL OTHER COUPS, INCLUDING THE GIDEON ORKAR COUP.




DO WE LABEL THEM FULANI COUP, TIV COUP, ETC.



THE 1966, COUP IS NO EXCUSE FOR GENOCIDE AGAINST THE PEOPLE OF THE EAST, AFTERALL, THE PEOPLE DID NOT COMMIT ANY COUP, THIS WAS A COUP BY POLITICAL ACTORS, FOLLOWED BY A COUNTER COUP AND SEVERAL OTHER COUPS.


THE LAND, SEA AND AIR BLOCKADE OF BIAFRA AND THE GENOCIDE, THAT COST BETWEEN 3 TO 5 MILLION LIVES, CAN NEVER BE JUSTIFIED.


RENO FORGOT TO STATE THAT THE REASON BRITAIN SUPERVISED THE GENOCIDE OF IGBO PEOPLE WAS BECAUSE OF OIL AND GAS DISCOVERED IN THE SE REGION.

YES, LET ANOTHER WAR HAPPEN, WE SET THE DATE FOR 2023.

I met Reno a few years back in the States and had lunch with him and his Wife Tope (then).
I couldn't imagine in a million years that the man has a deep-seated Igbo hate.
Ndigbo, please be very very very careful of some of your so called countrymen.
Some of them hate you in ways that you can never imagine.
Enough said.

Always talking about hate, south Africans hate you, Malaysians hate you even their police know ibos now different from other Nigerians, Kenyans hate you, indians hate only you? Dear ibos don't you people do what we call self assessment? Nothing has ever been your fault. Even your home videos is all about my uncle, my aunty, my brother hate me, haba! So from what you have read now which is a very clear and verified truth what can you learn? Indonesia hate you, everybody hate only you? Even Reno's people were slaughtered by Biafra soldiers but do you hear Delta people revisiting it all the time? My hometown Idah did not attack a single ibo because some igala's even speak ibo, the Attah igala asked that ibos should be escorted to the boundary to safety which our people did. Few months later on a market day our biggest market called "Ega" market by the river Niger shore a Biafra plane came and dropped a bomb that killed thousands. No home in Idah that was not affected that day. But today come to Idah and see what ibos own in Idah. Yet have you heard any igala swearing for revenge on ibos for the unwarranted deaths in Ega market especially that we are their immediate neighbors and we didn't harm 1 ibo when the war broke out?
Just the same shameful attitude exhibited by the fake lesbian professor of foolishness

gidgiddy:

What of the ojukwu who refused to receive international food aid so he can have starved Biafra corpses to show to uju anya professor of foolishnesss?

The blame lies squarely with the civil war generation who were hooked to Biafra propaganda and saw the war as an unprovoked and needless war on the part of Nigeria on the Igbo people.

This mindset was passed to subsequent generations and revamped by the Zionist propaganda outlet, IPOB through Radio Biafra.

The culture of denial and victim hood started with that war generation who are now dying out or in their last days but still cling sturbonly to their distorted narrative.

If their grand parents continue to hold on to these lies, who will convince them otherwise?

No self evidential truth or fact can sway these people to see the events leading to the war differently and I don't blame them because if I were in their shoes , I would believe my parents over that of those who vanquished them.

This is why every other generation will see to a revamped Biafran agitation and the only solution is to grant Igbos their own nation state within their ancestral lands only.

YES, LET ANOTHER WAR HAPPEN, WE SET THE DATE FOR 2023.

This whole conversation began with Uju tweet that again refused to accept the culpability of Ojukwu in starting a war he was not really prepared for?. I have watched some of his speeches moments before the war began and how boastful he was and was surprised at his performance during the war. He claimed and deceived his people that he has enough weapon, that was a fat lie and so many more. We read from Nairaland few days ago how Ojukwu refused food for his people from donors accept by air, so as to curry international supports in the face of the grief starvation confronting his people, yet he will turn around to blame another person. More worrisome is the fact that Biafra deplomacy was poor, no super power supported them, in a period of cold war, how do you intend to prosecute a war successfully with no serious allies? that's is foolishness.
Today we have people blaming the side that was better prepared asking them why they made better preparations. Briafra should properly educate themselves and agree that they were not ready for the war they prosecuted and lost.
I'm already sensing the same mistake in the way Obi's justified presidential bid is being prosecuted, no serious building of alliances across other ethnic groups, claiming national coverage when we could all see that he has almost become an Igbo candidate instead of a National candidate. Obi is being also packaged as a Christian candidate as if only Christian will vote. If for any reason Obi candidates fails at poll, you will begin to see another round of blaming others instead of taking responsibility.
Like Reno said, if we don't learn from history we are bound to make the same mistake of History, what an irony it will be.

Good insight let other regions who have suffered massacre from the Igbos start talking about it so their victimization mind games will be curbed . Every tribe and nation has suffered horrific event in the past but have moved on. Every other tribe in Nigeria hate igbos but igbos are littered everywhere in Nigeria yet every tribe hates them .

Armaggedon:
Does he not know uju anya's handle. Kindly tag her if he is not a coward.

Did you read the article?

Reno didn't even bother to mention that uncouth woman's name and made it clear from the write up that he wants to set the record straight on Igbo victimhood and their misplaced blame on the Royal family.

Why should anyone engage that gutter woman unless you want to promote the false Igbo latest blame game and their eternal victim hood?

I sha blame the OP for giving the thread the title as Reno did not respond to Uju but to Igbo collective stupidity in crying victims and blaming the late Queen.

I want you to clarify me clearly on what you wrote up here. Because I don't really understand what you mean by south Africans hate igbos, Indonesia hate igbos, Malaysian police hate igbos and so on and so forth.

Let me start by asking you some questions...
When south Africans started their xenophobic attacks in their country, were they asking their victims if they are Igbo before killing them? Were they killing only Igbos or were they killing nigerians in general??

When did you consult the Malaysian people or their government concerning Igbos living in their country and they tell you that they hate Igbos?
All the countries you mentioned that hates only igbo, how did you come about that?
You can only answer these questions if you are a truthful person.

Lastly, you and reno should tell Igbos why the northerners killed igbos in 1945 and 1953 was there any Igbo coup as of then?

Thank you Reno.

You decided to blame everyone else when you couldn't win the war you started. Haba.

Honestly, the Igbos really need to heal from this Biafra wahala so we can all move on as a nation.

OTHERS HAVE MOVED ON, PUTTING THE PAST BEHIND THEM BUT NOT WITHOUT LEARNING FROM IT.

Don't mind these people.
You see, they would go to any length to mask the truth, trying to confuse issues by making it look like Igbos are hated by everyone.
Fact is, without Ndigbo, Nigeria is not better than Benin or Central African republic.
That is why they HOLD unto Igbo for air. Without Igbo Nigeria becomes like the carcass of a giant animal.
Igbo THRIVE in almost ALL countries of the world. How possible is that if they are hated as they are hated by their so called "countrymen"?
Prof Uju Anya made it because she didn't grow up in Nigeria. She grew up in a country that understood merit, hate or not.
The Reno that I mentioned earlier NEVER showed his hate when we had lunch together. The coward never showed it whatsoever!
In fact throughout the time we hung out, he pretended that he was a normal human being. His Igbo hate only started to show after Jonathan left office.
That he successfully hid his Igbo hating, to me, is a lesson that all Igbo should learn.
That is the main issue.
Scratch the surface of your "countryman" before having lunch with him. O di mkpa.

I WISH OJUKWU IS ALIVE TODAY SO YOU CAN TELL THAT TO HIS FACE.
