On this day, May 31, 2026, BBC published a documentary video featuring a few survivors of the Nigeria-Biafra civil war recounting their experiences. Among the three men are a Biafran soldier and two Nigerian soldiers. It remains true that the Nigerian government's insistence on going to war against Biafra...

I am glad BBC made this documentary titled “Surviving Biafra” on the Nigeria-Biafra Civil War. So, kudos to my brother, the award winning Nigerian filmmaker, Meji Alabi. It is difficult for me to watch as I see my people slaughtered like dogs simply for seeking freedom and the preservation of their lives. Pogrom was committed against my people following the unfortunate first military coup of January 15, 1966 that was termed an “Igbo coup” even when the authorities and anyone who cared for the truth and followed events in the country at the time knew it was not an Igbo coup. Our Igbo people and anyone who looked like them were hunted down, killed, beheaded, maimed, babies violently cut from their mother’s womb and killed across northern Nigeria for simply being Igbo. I look forward to more documentaries on this war imposed on my people because of the discovery of crude oil in the then Eastern region. While not a complete account of the war, and while I would have wanted to see more from the people who were slaughtered in the millions and subjected to genocide, yet it is worth watching by all who seeks truth and justice, to understand Nigeria then and now. I am gratified that perhaps the powers in London are beginning to realize that this injustice cannot go on and be hidden forever. The Biafrans were not defeated by the Nigerian Forces. Biafrans were defeated by the British government, the British Military and the Blockade orchestrated and imposed on the Biafran people by the government of General Yakubu Gowon. I have long urged Nigeria’s government to begin the process of healing the incalculable disaster perpetuated against the Igbos of Nigeria and other Easterners. Other Easterners suffered during the war as much as the Igbos because it was difficult to tell who was Igbo from the Efik or Ibibio for example. I urge everyone to watch this documentary.

"Biafra is a territory with deep historical and independent roots, which, as a result of the British colonization process, was annexed to the Nigerian state without the consent of its original populations." - Legislative Assembly of the State of São Paulo, May 28, 2026. Thank you, Honorable Deputy Eduardo Suplicy (Eduardo Suplicy). We, the people of the United States of Biafra, express our sincere appreciation to the Legislative Assembly of the State of São Paulo (Alesp) for this recognition and for honoring the memory of the Heroes and Heroines of Biafra. During the official visit of the United States of Biafra Mission to the Norwegian Ministry of Foreign Affairs (Norway MFA) in 2024, we raised concerns regarding the continued annexation of Biafran territory and the long history of atrocities committed against our people, including mass killings/genocide, torture, sexual violence, and other crimes against humanity. Based on the legal principle ex iniuria ius non oritur; that legal rights cannot arise from unlawful acts, we maintain that the international community should encourage a peaceful, democratic, and lawful resolution that respects the will of the Biafran people. This conviction inspired the Biafran Self-Referendum of 2024, which culminated in the Lahti Declaration of November 29, 2024, when millions of Biafrans affirmed their desire for the restoration of Biafra's independence and the recovery of their interrupted sovereignty. The will of the people must be respected. Sincerely, Christopher Okenwa United States of Biafra Mission in Norway

IPOB’s Destabilization Agenda: Nigerian Government Should Act Fast and Decisively Too! The recent attempt by Nnamdi Kanu and his legal team to draw international sympathy through a letter addressed to U.S. President Donald Trump is another desperate move to blackmail Nigeria and distort the truth. This ploy, couched under the guise of alleged “Christian persecution,” is a calculated propaganda effort meant to shield Kanu from accountability for his well-documented crimes against the Nigerian state and its people. This latest push is a glaring reality that Nnamdi Kanu and IPOB are behind the noise of a "Christian Genocide" in Nigeria. This is an attempt to undermine the sovereignty of the Nigerian state and forment chaos of international dimension. It is crucial to remind the global community that Nnamdi Kanu is not a prisoner of conscience but a man who jumped bail after being granted temporary freedom by a competent Nigerian court. Instead of submitting himself to the judicial process, he fled the country and used his time in exile to inflame division, hatred, and violence against the Nigerian state. One should ask Nnamdi Kanu if the lives IPOB that he leads wasted in the South East do not matter, these were Christians. During his time abroad, Kanu made numerous broadcasts inciting his followers to attack and kill Nigerian government officials, security agents, and innocent citizens who disagreed with his extremist ideology. His messages were not calls for peaceful self-determination; they were open invitations to anarchy and bloodshed. In one particularly dangerous broadcast around October 20, 2020, during the EndSARS protests, Kanu explicitly ordered the destruction of Lagos State—a city that serves as Nigeria’s economic heartbeat and home to millions of citizens from all tribes and religions. In that same broadcast, he went further, ordering his followers to locate and kill Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, who was then a private citizen and is now the President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria. These are not the actions of a freedom fighter—they are the acts of a man pursuing chaos under the false banner of liberation. It must also be emphasized that Kanu’s trial began under the administration of the late President Muhammadu Buhari and has continued lawfully under successive governments. His detention and trial are rooted in due process and constitutional procedure. He is undergoing a valid trial before competent Nigerian courts, yet he and his legal team have persistently refused to open their defence, choosing instead to manipulate international opinion and stall justice. It is instructive at this point the need for the Attorney General of Nigeria must as a matter of urgency report the legal team of Nnamdi Kanu to the Ethics Committee of the Nigerian Bar Association. It is on record that when the one of his lawyers was supposed to be preparing open their defence, he was seen protesting on October 20, 2025 for the release of his client an action that the legal profession frowns at. Let's ask a question, can an American lawyer conduct himself the way Mr. Ejimakor has been conducting himself? Even more telling is that Nnamdi Kanu himself, inside the courtroom, confessed to committing the crimes for which he is being tried, claiming in a video-recorded moment that the offences were committed in the United Kingdom. This alone exposes the hypocrisy in his current attempt to paint himself as a victim rather than the perpetrator he is. Furthermore, the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB)—the organization Kanu leads—is a designated terrorist group under Nigerian law. IPOB has been responsible for the deaths of thousands of innocent citizens in the South-East region through brutal attacks on civilians, security operatives, and public infrastructure. The group’s reign of terror has left a trail of destruction, grief, and economic stagnation across a region once known for its peace and industry.
