Another first hand account that confirms Igbo cannibalism and wickedness

The writer witnessed the butchering of his uncle and he was then dismembered and his body parts sold in a Biafra market.

Interesting......

The murders and atrocities committed by biafran soldiers confirms the lies by Igbos that they were only defending themselves against aggression from Northern Nigeria. The real cause of the war was Igbo greed and an attempt to gain access to oil in the Niger Delta. As soon as Gowon created Rivers State and removed it from the former eastern region, Ojukwu went mad

This is the same strategy that Igbos are using today with their fake love for the SS.

This man is not saying the truth. I'm frm RIVERS STATE, I wasn't there during the war but my parents and grand parents told me about the war, never did day mention of anything alluding what d poster said, rather I was told about the invasion of our land by the Nigerian troops and the war crimes they committed. If such ever happened then something that this man is not telling us led to it...RIVERS people are BIAFRANS and we came out in our numbers to protest the arrest of our leader, that tells u all u need to know. U are on ur own...IN BIAFRA WE STAND

Kponkwem:
What you wrote on facebook is very much one-sided and is not only novel, but largely unsubstantiated. You failed to highlight the exigencies and confusions of the war situation which led to whatever you alleged the Biafran army did wrongly.

You believe Gowon would reveal the atrocities of the war when Nigeria, like its British creator, has been a rogue state involved in genocide, ethno-religious killings and human rights violations which it manifested in its monstrous forms in the war both in PH and Igbo heartlands.

I can assure you that for every Graham Douglas extrajudicially killed by the Biafram army, there are one thousand Graham Douglasses and Okafors also extrajudicially killed by the federal troops during the independence conflagration.

My landlord, an Ogoni man fought that war on the Biafran side,and the only thing he agrees happened in what you enumerated above was the evacuations- that he also attributed to a movement to safer hinterland areas because of the operation of federal troops from the coastline. Many people died on that long trek to the hinterlands, he said. How were the Biafran troops directly responsible for this?

Elechi Amadi and other Ikwerre/Rivers leaders were at the Oputa panel in 2005. When the Ohaneze confronted them with some of the atrocities of misguided riverine persons against their hinterland Igbo brothers during and after the war, they couldn't handle it and mere flared up. How did the federal troops access the coast routes to attack PH and Biafran hinterlands? Let all verifiable truths be brought to the open immediately so that we all could get the healing we deserve.

Now I leave you with this question to chew on you since you appear to hold the above strong opinion: Do you consider it truly a 'liberation' that the federal government carved out Rivers State as autonomous from the 'old Eastern Region' but refuse to allow them free control of their resources which was taken with the left hand through revenue consolidation in Abuja, local governments, 600 ambiguous agencies, and states creations?

.... To drive home his point, his book contained some pictures portraying the damages caused by Biafran soldiers among the Annang and the people of Uyo. He wondered why someone would hold the 3MDCO responsible for crimes committed by Biafran soldiers. "Most of the atrocities allegedly committed by the 3MDCO, Isama insisted, were actually perpetrated by Biafran soldiers...."

Also in a book written by General Phillip Effiong, a former Biafran general who, apart from being the Chief of Defence Staff of the Biafran Armed Forces. According to Effiong in his book, Nigeria and Biafra: My Story (Pages 220 and 221) “… When I visited the Brigade shortly before the invasion, particularly in Uyo and Calabar areas, I received a lot of complaints from the local people about unsavoury treatment by our (Biafran) troops.

I drew Colonel Eze’s attention to the complaints and urged him to improve relations with the civilians. “At Uyo, military-civilian relations were so strained that I had to personally intervene to release a local newspaper editor from detention. Such acts on my part were not just a question of feeling alone for my people, but also a question of justice and sense of belonging in an emergent Biafran State.

Were these arrests, false accusations, and detentions a sign of things to come in an independent Biafra? These issues bothered me as they would anyone else in my position then….. “

Gowon, Awolowo, Ejoor, Adebayo, Mobolaji Johnson, Katsina, Wey and all the groups that supported and advised the Federal Government of Nigeria to renege on the accords agreed upon in Aburi, Ghana were responsible for the 1967-70 Civil War, alongside their murderous kinsmen who killed innocent Easterners in revenge for an act done by a misguided group of soldiers comprising both Southerners and Northerners.

Ojukwu tried making peace, and called for peace-talk in a neutral ground hence the Aburi Accord, but Gowon and his co-travellers violated the agreement reached. If Ojukwu wanted war he wouldn't have called for peace talk in Ghana but the declaration of Biafra was inevitable as the killing of Easterners continued across the country. Ojukwu never asked for war! Ojukwu only declared Biafra when over thirty thousand corpses littered the Northern region in the aftermath of the January 15 1966 coup. Gowon and his cohorts declared the civil war! And Benjamin Adekunle, one the Nigerian soldier, later attested to the fact that Nigeria declared war because of oil in the Eastern region and not for the unity of the country!

Why didn't the July 1966 counter-coup plotters just wipe out the Eastern political class and call it a day. Aguiyi Ironsi did nothing deserving death yet they killed him. Ironsi was too much of a peacemaker and he died making useless peace, appeasing the Northerners. The counter coup plotters simply wanted a war and they sure got one.
Bear in mind there was no war before the pogrom of 1966 started in the North.
So why resort to maiming and killing innocent Easterners cum civilians. Has the killings stopped till date? NO!

The February 13, 1976 Dimka-led coupists came from Benue and Plateau region. They assassinated Murtala Mohammed then Head of State, yet there was no genocide carried against the Middle-belt people. Why was same treatment not given to the ethnic groups of the Dimka-led coupists that committed same offence? It's simply hypocrisy!
It is even against the military rule to harm the innocent civilians during coup.

According to the warped logic of hypocritical Yoruba and their co-travellers anytime there is a revolution or a coup the ethnic groups of the coup plotters should be singled out for ethnic cleansing!

Bloody, treacheerous, lousy noise-maker, you think you can cover up the atrocities of you saboteurs and your god, Obafemi Awolowo, who was the chief proponent of hatred, bitterness, tribalism, nepotism, propaganda and wickedness in this country? The same power hungry and greedy Awolowo who was imprisoned for treason and coup plotting until he was released by Odumegwu Ojukwu just before the 1967-70 war?

Hypocrite, what did you and your Yoruba tribe do when Igbos where being massacred across the North in 1966? Did you and your people come to the aid of the people of Igbodo and Asaba in 1967 when genocide was being carried out on them by your wicked Yoruba tribesmen and their co-travellers? 

Just like the chameleon, the Yorubas can change the colour of their skin at will and can vacillate at random between Christian and Muslim worlds whenever the evil spirit begins to operate them. Little wonder they are descendants of a fallen demon!
The vacillation is akin to the abracadabra of a sworn homosexual who might screw a man today, a woman tomorrow, or an animal the next time. You never can tell.

The level of Yoruba treacheery and betrayal is second to none.
Finding a reliable and trustworthy Yoruba person is like searching for a pin in a haystack. Yorubas who possess these good characters are rare.
Yorubas are not only treacherous but always at the servitude of the Northerners which is very worrisome.

Ethnomusicolist Charles Keil, who was visiting
Nigeria in 1966, recounted:

"The pogroms I witnessed in Makurdi, Nigeria
(late Sept. 1966) were foreshadowed by
months of intensive anti-Ibo and anti-
Eastern conversations among Tiv, Idoma,
Hausa and other Northerners resident in
Makurdi, and, fitting a pattern replicated in
city after city, the massacres were led by the
Nigerian army. Before, during and after the
slaughter, Col. Gowan could be heard over
the radio issuing 'guarantees of safety' to all
Easterners, all citizens of Nigeria, but the
intent of the soldiers, the only power that
counts in Nigeria now or then, was painfully
clear. After counting the disemboweled
bodies along the Makurdi road I was
escorted back to the city by soldiers who
apologized for the stench and explained
politely that they were doing me and the
world a great favor by eliminating Ibos.”

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nigerian_Civil_War

Here's actually an excerpt, albeit it was written by Emeka Esogbue but it is a direct summarization of Emma Okocha books.

"It was this battle that gave birth to Murtala, a “Local champion” called Ibrahim Haruna and Ibrahim Taiwo of the Nigerian Army. Africans first had the practical experience of the word “genocide” in Igbodo where hundreds of lives were lost in the Nigerian civil war. In Isheagu, the case was not different. It was here that the ulterior motive of the Nigerian troop clearly unfolded.

The people were now scampering for the safety of their lives having experienced what happened in Igbodo and some other places. In the Midwestern region, able bodied men went into hiding leaving women and children at the mercy of advancing soldiers. The people of Benin went identifying their Ibo-speaking neighbours from house to house for executions."

BLOOD ON THE NIGER: THE FIRST BLACK ON BLACK OCTOBER 1967 GENOCIDE OF ASABA PEOPLE BY MURTALA, GOWON  AND AWOLOWO

...Like my father and elder brother that were part of the over 1000 youths that were killed on October 7, 1967, in Asaba, most of them were members of the Action Group (AG). The people that believed in the NCNC at that time left for the east. My father who worked in Enugu, Nsukka, Uzuakoli and Kafanchan as a civil servant could have gone to the east. But he believed in that war. He was an apostle of the Awo ideas-free education and free medical services. In fact, the Asaba General Hospital that is now a Specialist Hospital was brought to us by the AG led by Nduka Eze, another AG hardliner who left the Zikist Movement to join Awolowo. But Nduka Eze's wife was killed by the federal troop under the command of Murtala Mohammed because she refused to be touched because they were defiling women at random when they came in.

The genocide against the Igbos has been proved beyond reasonable doubt by the apology made to Asaba people by General Gowon when he came there after the release of the Blood On The Niger. The genocide against the Igbos was proved beyond reasonable doubt at the Oputa panel which the federal government has up till now refused to publish the findings. Bishop Desmond Tutu chaired the Truth and Justice tribunal in South Africa to find out what happened in South Africa during the apartheid period. It was accepted by both sides and just look at the peace that has prevailed there since then. Why would Nigeria not publish the findings of the Oputa Panel where it has been proved beyond reasonable doubt that pilots were throwing bombs at random into market places in Uzuakoli, Uzuitem and Nsukka, where bottles and implements were also used against women during the war.

History is an account of the actions of actors in a community or in a state recorded that made impacts during their time. Awolowo was a great leader; great politician and great performer in government but his activities during the civil war were negative. If you are a writer, you cannot defend his position that starvation is an instrument of warfare. Starvation cannot be an instrument of warfare when you are fighting a civil war. 

Nigeria was being supplied arms from all countries. For the first time there was an unholy alliance between the Soviet Union and the West. It had never happened before. Any place that there was a war of revolution, the USSR is always taking the place of the revolutionary. How come that the USSR for the first time allied with the West against Biafra? So, let somebody go and disprove Achebe; that is what we want to see not that somebody did not commit genocide. Genocide has been proved to be committed. If there were no genocide, the World Council of Churches, the Caritas wouldn't have come in droves. If genocide was not committed, why did Biafra lose two million casualties, most of them civilians and children? And if people are not apologising to Igbos, why should they now come out to talk because one man has been put to where he belongs in history. He was the principal protagonist of using starvation as an instrument of warfare against his fellow citizens. Remember that Nigeria was fighting a war of unity. They were not as desperate as the other camp that was fighting a war of secession. So, in international convention Geneva included, you don't use starvation against civilians, you don't use firearms against civilians and you don't use bombs. Are they saying they didn't bomb civilians during the war? The Nigerian Air Force was very pronounced in its use of bombs on civilians and their targets were churches, market places and hospitals. These were recorded by missionaries and foreign journalists. 

Awolowo was the Minister of Finance under Gowon. He was the de facto prime minister of Nigeria during the war and he performed. I don't grudge him for winning the war for Nigeria; for changing the currency. He can win the war by all means but the fact that he prevented massive aid from coming is genocidal.

There was an inhuman instance. There was an incident where a Red Cross plane coming with medication and food was blown off the sky for the beleaguered people of Biafra. Even after the war, what was the purpose of denying Igbos their primary source of protein-stockfish? How can you defend the policy of giving people who have lost everything only 20 Pounds? If there is anybody that should have been given more, the returning war battered people of Biafra should have received more.

The Igbos have always accepted Awolowo as a great leader but his activities during the civil war shocked them. BY THE OBJECTIVE OF THE JANUARY 15 COUP, as quoted by Odia Ofeimun, the poet, the boys believed he was the greatest leader. 

THE LEADERS OF THE COUP, WERE TO MAKE CHIEF AWOLOWO THE PRIME MINISTER OF NIGERIA. These coup leaders didn't go for Azikiwe or Balewa. They wanted Chief Awolowo as quoted by Odia in a 1999 edition of The Guardian. Awolowo was supposed to be released by the Nzeogwu coup, which didn't have its assumed ending; it was aborted half way. It was Nzeogwu's colleague, Major Nzegwu that was supposed to pick him from Calabar prison and release him. So, I'm proving to you that the Igbo literality have always accepted Awo as one of the best and great leaders the country has ever produced but his activities during the war did not only shock them but betrayed the trust they had in.

During the whole peace conferences from Niamey to Kinshasha, Awolowo, Enahoro and Alison Ayida, who was a permanent secretary, always took a hawkish stand. That was why in the Niamey conference of 1968 Alison Ayida quoted Awo exactly that starvation is an instrument of warfare. This was at a time when millions of Biafran children were dying off. And death by starvation is not an ordinary death. It is for you to experience it. It was horror and the photographs are there but Awolowo and his henchmen never batted an eyelid even after the war. That is why we glorify other great literality like Wole Soyinka who told us in his book A Man Died that extermination was committed in Asaba. He was the first courageous soul in Nigeria that told the world about the Asaba massacre.

Dem don start! Because the atrocities were committed against non-Igbo minorities by the Biafran soldiers, you are now referring to the writer's account as "unsubstantiated." God dey!

It is part of the typical tactics of your people, to discard any true-life accounts by non-Igbo minorities, and wallow in self-denial.

Sam Enadeghe Umweni wrote about his own personal experience, and the atrocities he witnessed inside the Biafran enclave in his book, '888 Days in Biafra,' published by iUniverse, Inc., in 2007. Yet, the proponents of propaganda are always in a hurry to dismiss his account.

It is not only among Rivers people, that there were complaints of atrocities. Other non-Igbo minorities recorded the same fate. Even General Godwin Alabi-Isama in his book titled the 'Tragedy of Victory', noted that when the federal forces landed in Uyo & Calabar, they discovered one thing: "...the atrocities committed by Biafran troops on the people of Uyo and Annang were legendary."

Trillyonaire:
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.
ENOUGH IS ENOUGH!!!

So, Ibos watch it that you don't provoke a sleeping lion a second time!

Kponkwem:
My brother, I agree there were atrocities by Biafran troops, but it has not been established on the scale the writer made it out. If substantiated as you have suggested, there are causes because of the communication gaps that existed then. Neither would I support the suggestion that the atrocities as the major factor that made Biafra to fall. Ojukwu throughout the war requested the British and UN to organise a referendum for all the minorities, the Nigerian government guided by Gowon, Awolowo and Enahoro would have non of that and Britain continued to equip the war for Nigeria. Why was Ojukwu so confident of a referendum for the so-called minorities?

You will agree with me that up till today, the Igbo believe that the Nigerian and minority question can only be resolved through true federalism. If Biafra, through referendum for the Igbos and her neighbours. Let it be known that Igbo are not interested in anybody's oil. SE have enough resources and can muster billions of dollars in local and diaspora funds to take off as a free nation. Let non-Igbos never bother about being coerced into Biafra. Biafra is by choice, if you wish. This should be the major condition for any UN action on this agitation

Chimamanda Adiche: Ethnicity has become, in Nigeria, more political than cultural, less about philosophy and customs and values, and more about which bank is a Yoruba or Hausa or Igbo bank, which political office is held by which ethnicity, which revered leader must be turned into a flawless saint. We cannot deny ethnicity. It matters. But our ethnic and national identities should not be spoken of as though they were mutually exclusive; I am as much Igbo as I am Nigerian. I have hope in the future of Nigeria, mostly because we have not yet made a real, conscious effort to begin creating a nation (We could start, for example, by not merely teaching Maths and English in primary schools, but also teaching idealism and citizenship.)

For some non-Igbo, confronting facts of the war is uncomfortable, even inconvenient. But we must hear one another’s stories. It is even more imperative for a subject like Biafra which, because of our different experiences, we remember differently.

Biafran minorities were distrusted by the Igbo majority, and some were unfairly attacked, blamed for being saboteurs. Nigerian minorities, particularly in the midwest, suffered at the hands of both Biafrian and Nigerian soldiers.

..... All of these stories can sit alongside one another. The Nigerian stage is big enough. Chinua Achebe has told his story. This week, he turns 82. Long may he live.

You can't move ahead when all parties that are involved have not sat down to talk about any deal and their differences - it's like a woman going into a marriage blind , simply with the promises of love , care and oneness.

Haven't you notice the arrogance which our brothers from the SE are putting on even here on NL ? and if what they say is a true reflection of their mindset which I believe it is , then it is important for us to sit down and talk, else no deal.

Any protest in Port Harcourt will not be taken lightly. And if they call it all bark and no bite then they should go ahead and declare Biafra.We are waiting.
Some of them are talking about Isaac Adaka Boro in a scornful manner and taunting us about Saro Wiwa as if the 3 million Igbos that died were not humans at all but ants to them.

For the sake of sanity , it is better to remain a slave than to be handed over to an unrepentant brother.May I also remind you that we also have a right to self emancipation just like they have.

Gowon did not allow the accurate war records to be published because it would nullify his " no Victor no vanquised" jargon. If the true records are declassified, no part of the North, Midwest and West of Nigeria would tolerate the cannibalistic, murderous and greedy Ibos in their domains.
Their propagandists are trying very hard to re-write history to cover-up their sordid records.
The war crimes committed by Ibos, according to records, would make the Nazis proud.
