Taffy Williams Quote About Biafran Soldiers by kettykings(op): 1:05pm On Aug 01, 2023
Taffy Williams, a British mercenary who fought for Biafra during the Nigerian Civil War, was known for his high regard for the Biafran soldiers he commanded. He once said, "I've seen a lot of Africans at war. But there's nobody to touch these people. Give me 10,000 Biafrans for six months, and we'll build an army that would be invincible on this continent. I've seen men die in this war who would have won the Victoria Cross in another context."

Williams's quote is a testament to the bravery and determination of the Biafran soldiers. They fought against overwhelming odds, and many of them died in the conflict. However, they never gave up hope, and they continued to fight for their independence until the very end.

Williams's quote is also a reminder of the importance of motivation and morale in war. The Biafran soldiers were motivated by their belief in the justness of their cause, and they were determined to win. This motivation gave them the strength to overcome their enemies, even when the odds were stacked against them.

Williams's quote is a powerful reminder of the human spirit. The Biafran soldiers were ordinary people who were faced with extraordinary challenges. However, they refused to give up, and they fought for what they believed in. Their story is a testament to the power of hope and heroism

Williams was assigned one hundred Biafran fighters in early 1968, and managed to keep two battalions of Chadian mercenaries serving with the Nigerian Federal Army at bay for twelve weeks with only antiquated weapons. After Williams redeployed his forces in early April, the Chadians forded the Cross River at two locations, and captured Afikpo, a main town on the western side.[4]

Any day Nigeria wages war on Afonjanistan will be the end of the weak Yoruba race.

They know this and that's why they love "diplomacy".

Of course Biafra would have made Africa great again… but Blacks in Nigeria continue to fight to save what white people created to impoverish them…

What type of NIGGER JUJU be that?
