Biafra Flag |
It happened out of the
blue. My heart fell in love with the people of Biafra. I’d started to see new
images of mass slaughter and reports of starving children. Not Syria this time,
but in Nigeria. I didn't know Biafrans are Christian. Quickly getting up to
speed in the middle of the night, I realized that this was the same Biafra that
I remembered from the 1960's through 1970 when 3.5 million Biafran innocents
were massacred through starvation and butchery.
After 1970, the Igbo of Biafra, who consider themselves a nation, were unsuccessful in their bid for freedom against a superior
Nigerian army, and forced to surrender to Nigeria. Over two million children starved to death. Photos of the children's bloated stomachs and the horrific
genocide were reminiscent of the Holocaust of World War II. And now we are inured
to these graphics. They don't affect us anymore.
Here we are in 2016. Add in Boko Haram, the Islamist barbarians and
shockingly an Islamist President brought to power by David Axelrod, United States President Barack H. Obama's consultant. Yes, Axelrod has a
consultant company which allowed a comeback for Islamist Muhammadu Buhari from
obscurity. And Obama has embraced Buhari the Islamist, and invited him to
Washington.
According to Accuracy in Media (AIM) Obama is accused of
obstruction in the battle against Boko Haram to promote David Axelrod's Nigerian
Muslim Client. And guess what? Buhari is using Boko Haram against the Igbos of Biafra.
Now as dozens of peaceful protesters are currently being butchered, The Organization
of Emerging African States (OEAS) has revealed plans to roll out Biafra
self-defense units to protect peaceful demonstrators and independence
advocates.
“In the absence of international support or remedy, Biafran patriots have no choice but to mobilize for self-defense or face extermination. The Nigerian government has transferred battled hardened Muslim troops from the Boko Haram front to Biafra with shoot to kill orders. There has also been increased activity by the Nigerian Department of State Security,” OEAS said.
The owner of BiafraRadio Station is Nnamdi Kanu. He is the leader of the movement for
the secession of Biafra from Nigeria. Kanu is also the director of
London-based Radio Biafra, which he founded in 2009 with the help of members of
the Movement for the Actualisation of the Sovereign State of Biafra (Massob). Kanu says the station, which the Nigerian
government deemed illegal, aims to "bring hope, enlightenment and
knowledge to our people." Kanu is being held in Nigerian prison for treason.It seems that the
Biafrans want their freedom and have gone as far as telling Nigeria that they
can have their oil in exchange for their freedom.
Meanwhile
the world is silent. The collective narcissism of the world's powers
ignore this genocide. People are dying, beingslaughtered. And the beat
goes on.
Does anyone have a heart?
