Pope Francis’s speech to the UN called for a coordinated international response to the plight of Christians in the Middle East and Africa: “Christians, together with other cultural or ethnic groups,… have been forced to witness the destruction of their places of worship, their cultural and religious heritage, their houses and property, and have faced the alternative either of fleeing or of paying for their adhesion to good and to peace by their own lives, or by enslavement.
“There are individual persons, our brothers and sisters, men and women, young and old, boys and girls who weep, suffer and die. Human beings who are easily discarded when our only response is to draw up lists of problems, strategies and disagreements.”
While conducting Good Friday services in April, Pope Francis prayed, "We see in you our persecuted brothers, beheaded and crucified because of their faith in you, before our eyes or often with our complicit silence. In this third world war, waged piecemeal,… a form of genocide is taking place…."
As he led services, al-Shabab gunmen attacked churches in Kenya massacring nearly 150 people, singling out Christians for point-blank executions. Yes, prayer and international responses are needed, but the “complicit silence” of the media on the blatant abuse of religious freedom by militant Muslims is irresponsible.
One such continuing abuse is the ongoing genocide of the people of Biafra in what is now southeastern Nigeria. Prior to the creation of Nigeria by Britain’s departure, Biafra was a prosperous indigenous people with over a thousand years of history and a rich connection to Judeo-Christian values and free enterprise capitalism. The yoking together of these proud Igbo people with their Muslim neighbors from the North was an invitation to conflict and abuse.
After Igbo citizens attempted to establish the Republic of Biafra in 1967, a holy jihad was proclaimed by Islamic extremists in the Nigerian army. With army support, the Nigerian government initiated an economic blockade and tried justifying starvation as a legitimate weapon of war. The result was the genocide of millions of Igbo citizens and the systematic elimination of a majority of Biafran elites and leaders.
On December 15, 1968, the American Jewish Congress issued a memorandum, “The Tragedy of Biafra,” stating, “For more than a year, a little noticed but nonetheless savage and tragic war has been going on between the Federal Government of Nigeria and the former Eastern Region of that country which, in May 1967, proclaimed its independence as the Republic of Biafra.”
This September, Justice Oscar Onyeani Umah sent an open letter to the International Court of Justice in the Hague, noted that the 1967 war drew little public attention despite being responsible “for more deaths than have occurred in Vietnam, Burundi, and Sudan. The thirty-month-long war led to the death of over six million ethnic Igbos and other Easterners.”
Sadly, the silence of the international media regarding the plight of Biafra continues to this day. Recent killings of harmless Baifrans on August 30th by a combinations of military and police remains just one of many attacks allowed under the leadership of Nigerian President Mohammed Buhari.
In response to such killings and calls for a referendum for the peaceful secession of Biafra, Justice Oscar Onyeani Umah, called on the United Nation, The International Court of Justice, The Russian Government, The American Government, and the world at large to stop the continuing genocide in Biafra.
Nnamdi Kanu, the leader of Biafra Restoration Movement and the director of Radio Biafra ( http://radiobiafra.co/), recently received a warm reception at the World Igbo Congress (WIC) Annual Convention in Los Angeles. Nnamdi and his supporters would welcome a peaceful secession by diplomatic means, but, if necessary, are ready to take up arms to achieve independence for Biafra.
The efforts to silence Radio Biafra by the Mohammed Buhari administration has failed. Recent trend data indicates that Radio Biafra is number one in growing audiences worldwide, ahead of CNN. It’s time for the world’s media and international leaders to wake up to the plight of Christians in Biafra, demand an end to persecution, and to support efforts to establish the Republic of Biafra. townhall.com/columnists/terrypaulson/2015/10/05/draft-n2060242/page/full

Biafra must be restored... The Zoo must fall!

When una wan get sense ?? Without google , can you tell me the name of the men who decided Biafra is the name and they should secede ?

The zoo never fall since we treat GEJ furk up, he no fall since Albino don dey cell


Carry Ladder go fall the zoo

Biafra is Biafra anytime any day and should be stopped before it gets out of hand. picking my opinion from OBJ's word Nigeria adsorbed the SE into the civil servant and Nigeria military, so why canvas for separation after benefiting from Nigeria. If you loss your place in the country's political space by voting a failure and clueless man you should have a rethink on your political affiliation or strategy !!!

Who is still doubting Biafra restoration? The zoo has already started falling....if i am lying, ask the economy

Of course
The msg was very clear from radio Kaduna and Igbos and to an extent Ibibios,having already seen the brutal pogroms of July and September '66 knew that radio Kaduna wasn't joking
And coupled with the charge from the Supreme leader to kill at least 10 Nigerian soldiers before dying, you can see why the war lasted longer than it should with more military casualties(btwn thrice to 5X that of Biafra) for Nigeria

You should realise that these people have a gift for false propaganda. In fact when I started reading the post by the OP, I ended up laughing by the time I got to the end.

The families of those alleged to have been shot during the Biafran march in the East, should petition the police so we can know the full facts. If not, in another few years from now, their descendants will allege that a whole town was massacred on that day.

Chai! Is there still continuing genocide against South-Easterners in 2015??! Come and see propaganda in action. See how a whole Justice Oscar Onyeani Umah is following them to tell fairy tales. Even the people of the Middle Belt who the Fulani herdsmen have attacked severally, have not raised allegations of genocide! Instead, they are pursuing all available means to resolve the problem, and I pray God grants them a speedy solution.

So what does this writer mean by "It’s time for the world’s media and international leaders to wake up to the plight of Christians in Biafra,"...which plight are these Christians facing right now in Ala Igbo??

And how can they say "Radio Biafra is number one in growing audiences worldwide, ahead of CNN??" Where is the data?? May God deliver us from these Biafran half-truths and outright lies.

Wait, how much did Kanu's people pay this oyinbo hack to write this fake stories??

You dumbasses keep yelling that 3million were killed on your side, what about those killed on the Nigerian side by the Biafrans? My friend, all is fair in love & war.

You should be more concerned about the 9million minimum target [4million from the Yorubas axis & 5million from the Fulanis axis ] that would be killed like cockroaches in the "Biafra Season 2"

This is Y we keep telling you to abandon this Biafran enterprise inorder to avoid unnecessary bloodshed & the suyalization of our brothers & sisters from the East.

But you forget that the stomach-ripping of the pregnant victims in that war wouldn't have occurred if Ojukwu had embraced peace & shunned the declaration of Biafra.

For every action, my friend, there's an equal and opposite reaction.

Is it true that the fetuses of those pregnant victims were ripped open & used to play African football?

The thirty-month-long war led to the death of over [size=16pt]six million[/size] ethnic Igbos and other Easterners.”

Each time the story is told it gains few more millions. Weve gone from thousands in 1970 at the end of.war to 1million, 2million, 3million....now we are 6 million. It will be 10million.soon and still growing.

What happened, are the dead biafrans reproducing and multiplying in their graves?

Abeg close your rotten mouth. You uncircumsized ragheaded monkeys also declared Arewa republic by shouting araba. Until the zookeeper British convinced you that oil lying in Biafraland will taste good in your rotten gworo-chewing mouth. Then you suddenly became 'one nigerianist' after gowon had said 'no basis for unity'. Parasites!

You guys have already brought a curse on yourselves up north, boko must kill every living thing there for the next 100years. That cursed evil north must be naught. I love seeing you all get roasted by shekau, until you make restitutions for killing harmless Biafran women and children, investors must continue to flee as IDP camps continue to swell. It is the curse that God has brought upon you, live with it.
