Like any one cares what this bimbo as to say. Why not ask Azikwe why he waited 3 yrs to ensure the Hausa Fulani you Igbos are running away from now was part of Nigeria when the British were ready to grant each region independence three years earlier.

My response to the picture;

It's a fact that Biafrans had an emblem of their flag on their shoulders. But this army here had none. Anyways, I conducted a little research about the truth of this picture. Here is it;



Video of execution:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UUXozz8hocw


Footage of the execution of two officers of the Nigerian Army in Benin City during the country's Civil War. The men had been charged and convicted under NA Ordinance Act (1950) s.72 of killing four unarmed civilians in the town of Ogwashi-Uku.

The civilians were two employees of Barclays Bank, a Police Inspector and a Prison Warder.

Both men were shot separately with a three-minute interval. They had been tied to two pillars in front of 24 sand-filled oil drums.

The new Nigerian Army Chief of Staff, Brigadier Hassan Katsina said that the executions were intended to serve as a deterrent to troops.

Several hundred onlookers watched the executions and several of them fainted.

Source of footage: Reuters News Archive.

Note:

1. I have confirmed that the executions did occur in June 1968 despite the officer's words referring to "July 1968". One source is a Syndicated newspaper article originating from the London Observer and published by the News Journal of Mansfield, Ohio on Thursday, July 11th 1968. Another source is a book entitled International Criminal Law: Cases and Commentary By Antonio Cassese, Guido Acquaviva, Mary Fan, Alex Whiting. Published by Oxford University Press in 2011, (Chapter on "Sources of International Law" Page 11).

2. The officers had executed the four civilians because of their suspicions that the men had colluded with infiltrators from the Biafran state.

It's just hatred, hatred and more hatred. Did you even bother to read the comments of others to have a feel of the whole issue; whether it was true or not. It's just hatred and pure hatred against a people who have been treated unjustly. You will be at the receiving end some day. May no one feel your pains. May they upon your torture, lie and lay false accusations against you.
