The Biafran Army Slaughtered all the Hausas they could Lay their hands on in the Midwest and it didn’t end there

During the Biafran Soldiers withdrawal from Ore every non Igbo along their route between Ore in the Western Region and Agbor was shot dead, a distance of more than 200 km. Those that were inside Cars had the Cars taken over by Biafran Soldiers who didn’t have enough Vehicles to transport them back to the East.

Both sides of the road were full of dead bodies,

When the Biafran Army reached Agbor there was another Massacre every non Igbo they could find in Agbor Town was killed.

Gen Gowon prevented the full details from being published in the interest of reconciliation and One Nigeria

Obi Ebbi who was a Biafran Soldier confessed in his book “ Broken back axle , unspeakable events in Biafra “ they killed all the non Igbos along the Biafran Army’s withdrawals route it in order to prevent information on their Biafran Army’s Movement from being passed to the Federal Soldiers who were in Pursuit behind them

There is a Photograph of the road with dead bodies on both Sides of it for as far as the eye can see , I think it Was Peter Obe a Newspaper Photographer that took it.

The report of the Justice Omo Eboh Panels investigation into the atrocities committed during the Biafrans Army’s Invasion of the MidWest was said to have filled more that twenty boxes



The Non Igbos of the East even Claim they were Victims of Ethnic Cleansing by the Biafran Soldiers

2 ). Enough Of This Biafran Nonsense!!! By alabo abiye Akkio-abbey


As a Rivers man who saw the events of 1967-1970 and who was old enough to understand them, this protest in Port Harcourt is a slap on true Rivers indigenes. and the memory of ALL the Rivers men and women who were slaughtered in the pogroms and ethnic cleansing committed during the civil war by the Biafran Army.
Let us remind ourselves of the TRUE facts and REAL reasons behind the secession and subsequent civil war. Ojukwu and his cohorts decided to secede from Nigeria because Gowon broke up the regions and created Rivers State among the 12 states he created. Remember the Aburi accord? Article 4 of that accord had to do with the breaking up of the regions. On the 27th of May, 1967, Gowon broke up the Regions, from the then Eastern Region and carved out Rivers, South-Eastern and East-Central states. 3 days later on 30th May, 1967 Ojukwu seceded citing the Aburi accord. ON ABURI WE STAND!! The rallying war cry of the day. How anyone who calls himself/herself a Rivers indigene support tacitly or otherwise the so-called Biafra cause when Biafra seceeded just because Rivers State was created and the Rivers people for once had a right to self rule?
In the quest for a sovereign country did the Igbo majority seek, discuss with or solicit the support of the minorities in the Oil Rivers and South-East?? Where is Biafra? How do you seek for a country which was susequently named Biafra WITHOUT involving the indigenous people of Biafra? Isn't that supreme arrogance or maybe they were not included because they were meant to be wiped out later. Events proved the latter to be true.
Late Chief (Dr.) Nabo Graham-Douglas who was the Attorney General of the Eastern Region was sent on compulsory leave and exiled to his home town Abonnema with orders for him to be executed. Fortunately the plans leaked and he miraculously escaped. He didn't draw the Articles of secession and only heard about Biafra from the BBC journalists who came to interview him in Abonnema.
He was one of the lucky ones.
The ethnic cleansing began in earnest. Our intelligentsia; top civil servants, technocrats and other able bodied men and women were rounded up and summarily executed in Enugu, Owerri, Aba, Umuahia, Degema, Buguma, Bakana, to mention but a few towns/cities. In Port Harcourt, Rainbow town and Igritta, became killing fields. the bones of those victims still lie there
These atrocities were committed by the Biafran Army, against people who were supposed to be fighting the same cause with them.
In a bid to wipe out the minority tribes, our towns and villages were evacuated, our men put to slave labour and later on shot (reminiscent of Nazi Germany), our women taken as sex slaves, young boys shared the same fate as the men. Bakana, Bille, Abonnema were all forcefully evacuated.
Finally, when the Nigerian Army counter attacked and liberated Port Harcourt, the retreating Biafran Army, burnt Kingsway (now Supabod building), Nabo Graham-Douglas's law library (which was the best Law library in the whole of West Africa) and other land marks in the Garden city. Of what military significance were these acts??
I don't blame the misguided ill-informed people for trampling on the graves of those who were murdered by the Biafran Army, by protesting in Port Harcourt. I blame Gowon for forbidding accounts of the war being published after the war, but more importantly for not trying war criminals (like Col Ojeh of Degema) within the Biafran Army and holding them accountable for their inhuman and murderous actions during the war. 70 years after World War 2, we are still reminded on a daily basis the atrocities that the Nazi's committed. If Gowon had done what he was morally and duty bound to do, this matter of Biafra would have been put to rest once and for all.
By the way, in May 1968, my uncle (my mother's younger brother) was shot in his Warri street residence in Port Harcourt, his corpse butchered, his flesh sold as Biafra meat in Mile 1 market. That same day the Nigerian Army opened up and started shelling Port Harcourt, which was ultimately liberated
Are those protesting and the other supporters of "Biafra" aware of these facts??
The war has been over these past 45 years, we are forging on as a country, setting aside our ethnocentric issues. That Ex-Biafrans have been assimilated into all spheres of our society (as they should), without any punishment meted out to the war criminals among them, doesn't give anyone the right to re-write history or bring these painful memories back.

This is not the right time for this post

ba7man:
With how they taunt other regions, celebrate insecurity and bad leaders, chestbeat and boast all over the country, live in your region and still hate you, i guess that's what pisses the Northerners off and attack them.

These days, they've directed their hate and blie at the southwest that has been good to them. They live in our midst but celebrate our misfortunes and express hate for us.

We're now aware of their true intentions towards us.

durangokid:
. We the Igbos are praying for another civil war do that we can massacre our enemies as a revenge on what they did to our people, you people can continue to fake storylines, we the igbos knows what happened to us, we are waiting

DubaiLandLord:


At the end of the day, we ibos go still Atikulate in 2023, no matter how they have killed our people

kingawothefirst:
Forgive these people at your own peril, they are primitive and barbaric people. Gowon made a huge mistake by granting them pardon and using the phrase “No victor, no vanquished” that’s the biggest mistake Nigeria ever made.

The sore losers want to act like they were saints and they didn’t kill other ethnic groups that fought on their side, whom Ojukwu the coward tagged as mercenaries based on presumptions (he assumed they were mercenaries and killed them in cold blood in enugu)

They want to act like they didn’t trample Adaka Boro’s dream of a Niger delta republic, didn’t he have a right to self determination? Park well if you want to revisit history we will open una yansh this Christmas period.

You only wrote about the occurrences during a war(the civil war),The injustice to igbos has being going on even before the civil war,so you want to tell me that in a war the opposing side would sit and look without moving an inch?
In your ignorance you neglected all the massacres before the war and uploaded this.
You should have just kept quiet and kept your disagreement too yourself rather than this..

DubaiLandLord:
The South West and Mid West never had any confrontation with the Igbos, why did the Igbos invaded this two regions and even killed people?

T9ksy:
One school of thought suggests that the ibos HAD to invade these two regions in order to achieve their objective of taking down Gowon's govt in lagos.

Another school of thought though, claim they were "liberation" army trying to rescue these two regions
,albeit unilaterally, from the fulani hegemony in Southern Nigeria.

Un/Fortunately, the SW saw through their deceit and scupper the ibos' liberation army in their stride at Ore.

IGBOSON1:
Will you STFU!

What 'deceit' are you yapping on about? If the Biafran army wasn't taking the fight to the enemy headquartered in Lagos....or coming to liberate (as you've put it) the rest of the south from the murderous Fulani hegemony, then what's your own theory.....that they we coming to 'enslave' Yorubas'? Today, we're all living with the consequences of your stupidity and misplaced fear/hatred of Igbos! What possibly could Igbos have done to you that is worse than what you're going through with the Fulani hegemony today?

You Igbo-hating bigots can be so unreasonable and annoying atimes!
