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.
