ATROCITIES PERPETRATED AGAINST THE IBIBIO DURING THE BIAFRAN WAR:

WRITTEN BY RAY ISONG;-

The Nigerian-Biafran War started on July 6, 1967 and ended on January 15, 1970. The former Eastern Region of Nigeria seceded from Nigeria and declared its independence on May 30, 1967, following the massacre of the Igbo people who were living in the northern parts of Nigeria.

The dominant argument in the historiography of the civil War, both within academia and the popular media, is that the Igbo were targeted for extermination by the Muslim north. Yet, not much has been reported about the atrocities perpetrated against the “minorities” in Biafra, both by the Nigerian military forces and the Biafran militias. In particular, the ibibio people.

William Norris of the London Times who visited Biafra, reported an eye- witness account in which some men of Ibibio ethnic origin were beaten to death at Umuahia on April 2, 1968. These Ibibios who included old men and young men were apparently suspected of collaborating with advancing Nigerian troops. They were reportedly frog-marched across an open space while the local people attacked them with sticks and clubs.

In a related account, B. J. Ikpeme, a member of a minority group and retired Senior Medical Officer in the then Eastern Region revealed atrocities perpetrated by Biafran soldiers against the minorities in some towns in the present-day Cross River and Akwa- Ibom States. Ikpeme argued that Ojukwu’s declaration of the Republic of Biafra had been issued against the wishes of the majority of the people of Calabar, Ogoja, and Rivers Provinces, who for many years had agitated for a separate state of their own.

According to Ikpeme, the Igbo leadership, who did not like the minority agitation, decided either to force the five million non-Igbo minorities into the new republic or eliminate them. It was on this basis, claims Ikpeme, that Biafran soldiers were quickly sent to the minority areas to “keep down the people, detain or even kill all who dared raise a voice in protest against the idea of Biafra.” It was during this period that the non-Igbos started experiencing different forms of inhumane treatment, ranging from torture, detention, to killing.

Ikpeme himself was detained in what he described as a “concentration camp” and was later transferred to a prison cell where he was given urine to drink when he demanded water. Ikpeme described instances where the Biafra soldiers allegedly perpetrated atrocities against some members of non-Igbo groups. In Asang town in Enyong, from where Ikpeme originated, about four hundred people were carried away to an unknown destination. Another town called Attan Onoyon in the same Enyong was burnt down with many people killed by the Biafran soldiers.

In Ikot Ekpenyong in the present day Akwa Ibom State, Biafra soldiers were said to have shot many villagers. Ikpeme also recounted that similar killings carried out by Biafra soldiers took place in places like Ikot Okpot and Idoro. He equally alleged that when the Nigerian troops landed in Calabar on October 18, 1967, about 169 civilians in detention were lined up and shöt by Biafran soldiers. This same allegation had also been published in The New York Times as an informational advertisement by the Consulate General of the Federal Republic of Nigeria in New York. These two accounts, given by the survivor-victim of Ikun and Dr. Ikpeme, portray similar pictures of gross atrocities but with different underlying objectives.

Viòlencé towards the minorities was not perpetrated only by the Biafran troops. Approximately 2,000 Efiks were reportedly killèd in Calabar by the federal troops. The victims were said to be returnees who revolted against the federal occupation. The killing was reported to Gowon who subsequently appointed Dr. J. B. Ikpeme as Chief Justice when the killing had nearly been completed. According to Emeka Uhuegbu, the field administrator of the United Nations mandated demining project, the minority areas of Rivers State had the highest number of landmine victims. Akwa Ibom and Imo States follow on the list.

According to a study on Nkari, an ibibio clan bordering Akwa Ibom and Abia State, in Ini LGA, the Nigerian Civil War military operation did not reach Nkari villages until late 1968. Before this period, the Nkari people only felt the effects of the war. Essential food such as salt, crayfish, sugar, bread and so on were lacking leading to starvation in the area. There was no army occupation of the Nkari clan during the early period of the war in 1967, the people only heard from news on the radio that there was a civil war going on in the country, later they experienced scarcity of goods and drugs in the market.

In late 1968, Nkari people started seeing soldiers in the community. The people, mostly men were asked to queue up for the exchange of currency, from Naira to Biafran pounds, and all men of the clan who queued up for the exercise were marched out of the community to an unknown destination.

(Inwang:2018) also added that some of the men in the queue who later escaped while they were led by the men dressed in military uniform wondered why only men were mandated and taken out of the community to exchange Nigerian currency for the Biâfrâ money. Therefore, some people escaped into the bush whenever they were out of sight of the soldiers.

Women waited for days, weeks and months and their husbands did not return. Therefore, they fled from the community leaving the entire area desolate. The study found out that they were Biâfrân soldiers hired by neighboring Igbo villages to carry out the nefarious and dastardly act, so as to evict the people from their land. Till date, Nkari people are still in land disputes with neighboring Igbo villages – Ariam/Usaka, Ntalakwu, Ibere.

OP, don't you think Gen Efiong who was in direct control of the Biafran military forces as the chief of defence staff, should be the best person to answer for all these allegations?

You mustn't also forget Mr. NU Akpan who was the secretary to the Biafran government, whose signature must have accompanied any major orders coming from Ojukwu.

Also bear in mind both individuals are from AkwaIbom

Those that fail to learn from history end up repeating history. I ask you again, is Nigeria stronger or more united than USSR, India, Sudan, Yugoslavia, Ethiopia etc that eventually broke up? Non of these countries governments ever wanted it to broke up and they kept resisting until they couldn't stop it anymore. Same will happen to Nigeria in our generation. We are following exactly the same pattern to those others that broke up.

2023 election was the best opportunity to save Nigeria but we bungled it. It turned into a disaster that will even hasten its breakup. There is a psychological disconnection of many Nigerians to the state. Most people are disgusted at the prospects of being ruled by not just an unfair muslim-muslim ticket but one that came to power fraudulently. One that has a drug lord in control. What we have currently is silence of the grave yard. Once Tinubu is installed as president, Nigerians alongside the global community will be disgusted that a character like Tinubu is ruling. Coupled with impending economic crises with solution whatsoever.

Installing Tinubu as president will be the beginning of the end of Nigeria. Go and mark it somewhere.

Ok, i agree.

Hope you would champion the course? You and i know that the coward who decieved your grandparents died long ago(Ojukwu), and your Leader mazi Nmnamdi Kanu the Jewish fool is still in hands of the DSS.

Who Champion's the course for Biafra, perherps that fool that calls himself Senator Abaribe that is always ranting in the Senate and have absolutely no Project for his Constituents.

We're not living with other tribes because they're conducive, it's just for hustling note that.

Well nobody is preventing other tribes from settling in Igbo land at least we have plenty Northerners and Akwa ibomites living peacefully there.

The powers that be knows that granting Igbos Biafra will lead to the disintegration of other indigenous tribes so they're preventing it.

Igbos are developing their villages at a rapid pace with no help from the central government, go there and see things for yourself. What do you think will happen if they're granted autonomy?

Stop the hate and be free. Igbos will be fine no matter what happens.
I support the Creation of Biafra but only with the 5 states and hope the Igbo's knows that they will never Visa to enter Nigeria?

The Jews, Russians, Germans and other great nations today lost far more lives and resources than Biafrans in their conflicts, yet they are still greater than ever before. Igbos fought against all odds like real warriors and have moved on from the disasters of the war. When Yaribanza pigs like you brag about 3 million Igbos killed in the war,its always important to remind you idiots that your Nigerian Federal soldiers are on record to have lost far more lives on the battlefield when and where it mattered more (google the Abagana ambush and learn how an entire division of Nigerian soldiers were wiped out for context)- but of course it's a thing of honor for animals to gloat and celebrate the killing of unarmed civilians with the help of superpower nations like Britian and Russia, yet you brag about " 3 million Biafran civilians" killed when your tribesmen lost more men on the battlefields!

Secondly when this war happens against Igbos, which tribes will join the Federal govt to fight the war? cause you will be the biggest fool to think the Middle Belt who provided the bulk of the infantry men during the Biafran war will fight your useless war, at least the Middle Belt know better now and have apologized to the Igbos for their role in the civil war...our real enemies aren't the Igbos, but the fulani bastards who are on a mission to wipe us out.

The South South will definitely not take sides with your govt in any war against the Igbos, they will definitely stay neutral in any conflict while the Igbos from the South South will naturally support their brothers.

That leaves us with the Muslim North and some yorubaas (mostly the yorubaa muslims)Muslims, are you that confident these 2 tribes without the support of the Middle Belt and South South can defeat the Igbos in a war? Also Igbos now have more foreign diplomats and military personnels abroad, so with heavyweights like Okonjo Iweala etc who can easily lobby foreign powers to support their people, which foreign nation will provide military support to your useless military?

You see why you yorubaas are actually the most stupid people in Nigeria?

You are not obidient, my friend, if you are you will be truthful enough to acknowledge that Peter obi visited more communities and hinderlands than any other presidential aspirants. even paid personal visits to personalities of icon who are not royal father's, built bridges with people who spoke against him e.g wole soyinka and femi kuti, try to make peace with those who openly oposed
him e.g soludo, called them "my brother", "my elder brother" or "my mentor"
Made effort to still humbly seek the face of a royal father who snubbed him e.g Oba of Lagos.
He visited communities in North Central that suffered flood and personally sympathized with them.
Visited Boko Haram ravaged territory in borno comunities, and IDP camps, community chiefs and the common people.

It's a pity you don't know what building bridge means. Probably you are veiwing it from a corrupt lense.
One more thing. The igbos who you call proud are in every nooks and cranny of Nigeria peacefully doing the business with the host community they reside. Never have you heard a clash amongst them and the host community. What do u say of that?
