Nigeria and Biafra : Is Warfare one sided?

How come no one remembers all the atrocities the Biafra soldiers perpetrated on those who were minorities in Biafra? Ask an Ikwerre man or an Ejagam woman or even an ijaw his or her experience in the hands of their soldiers (Biafran soldiers) then you will realize why South south would rather die than join this movement!

When the war broke out, Biafra had stationed some of its troops in the Cross River region including Ikun in Biase Local Government.

Though the Ikun initially supported Biafra and had friendly relations with the soldiers, as time went on tensions emerged.

Some Ikun men were suspected of collaborating with Nigerian soldiers with no hard evidence. As a result, murder, arrests, looting and rapes was meted on that community. 100 men were killed in the presence of their wives, children,mothers that day to teach the other a lesson.

William Norris of the London Times who visited Biafra reported an eye witness account
of how Ibibio men were surrounded and beaten to death in Umuahia on April 2 1968. They were reportedly forced to march across an open space while the local people attacked them with sticks and clubs.

On another episode, Biafra soldiers took Ikun men to Ohafia for a meeting but never
came back with them.

An informant alleged that soldiers returned to the community and rounded up some men within their reach and shot them.

A survivor who lost her four day old son and grandmother seemed to have suspected foul play from the Ohafia people with whom they share a common boundary.

This victimization continued until the Biafra headquarters issued a statement to stop the
genocide. However by this time, the remaining people had escaped leaving behind only
soldiers and Ohafia, also some Ikun with a mixed blood of half Ohafia

Warfare is never one sided!

I shall never support biafra.

I didn't bother to read the entire epistle. Just understand that no one is preventing you from telling your story if you feel strongly about it. The Jews have not forgotten their story and the evil of Hitler's Nazi. Same applies to the Armenians as it relates to their suffering under the Turkish empire. In every parts of the world where people suffered injustice the narratives are always kept alive so it is not repeated. The dark sides of our history must never come back. If you are not telling your own story I must say it is not a living conviction inside you, and where this is the case you will look weak and ineffective demonstrating what you don't believe in no matter how hard you try. Even your own conscience will do you battle. Watch the body language of the Igbo as they discuss the issues surrounding Biafra. It is only a fool and deeply evil at heart that will deny the injustice the Igbo had to bear.

The most relevant sections on Biafran war crimes are highlighted:
"The relationship between the two sides deteriorated progressively and the Biafran efforts to secure the people's support failed.
The battle front reports were equally unfavourable to the Biafrans who then resorted to extensive witch-hunting against suspected saboteurs.
The Biafran forces, who were relatively calm during the first one month of the occupationperiod, became progressively edgy, tightening the various governmental gadgets of societal control.
As the Biafran hostility developed to crisis proportions, the dusk to dawn curfew was further enforced, the Vigilance and Security Councils given additional powers, and the Biafran Army and Militia became more ruthless in their dealings with the civilians.
The civilian collaborators doubled their spying activities to callous dimensions. [45]
The situation drifted for the worse.
Taking the MidWestern refusal to support the secessionist movement as a demonstration of an anti-Ibo and pro-Hausa stance, the Biafrans intensified their search for suspected saboteurs as every set-back on the battle front was invariably blamed on sabotage.
Heavier reprisals followed.
At Abudu, over 300 bodies, including those of children, were found in the Ossiomo river as the Biafrans withdrew. [46]
Similarly, on 20 September 1967, 'there was a mass killing of non-Ibo MidWesterners at Boji-Boji Agbor', and on 23 September, 'non-Ibo speaking MidWesterners were apprehended by rebel soldiers at Asaba, Ibusa and Agbor and taken [in two lorries] to a rubber plantation along Uromi-Agbor road and massacred'.[47]
The more minor cases of rape, extortion, seizure of
properties, and other punishments featured abundantly.
For instance, a Warri-based lawyer, E. K. Iseru, testified at the Tribunal that he was stripped naked and detained for three days without food for agitating for the Rivers State, and, when he complained of hunger, he was promptly told: 'there is no food for Hausa friends'.
