It has been 50 years since the BIAFRA outrage.It does well to remember this crime against humanity and the responsibility that must be carried by the Wilson government, in the United Kingdom, and SHELL/BP throughout he 3 year war that cost he lives of over 1,000,000 children. Frederick Forsyth has written to only inside view of the conflict, having live in Biafra during the conflict.I was there and flew small aircraft against the Russian-sponsored jet fighters/bombers, eliminating this threat so relief flight could bring in food and medicine.At one point, 10,000 were dying from starvation per day.The Biafrans have never forgotten, never forgiven those who attempted genocide upon them.I attach a Nigerian government photo of me destroying a Mig-17 May 22, 1969 Port Harcourt, Biafra.
I cannot claim to be a scholar of African history, but from the works I have read on the Biafran conflict I find this certainly one of the most readable. It has the benefit of being a contemporary account by a then journalist on the scene, and one who knew the chief protagonist, General Chukwuemeka Ojukwu. Studies compiled over the years largely bear out Forsyth's understanding of the conflict, its causes, and the outcome for Nigeria. This is a fraught subject for Nigeria and Africa in general. Unfortunately, for Nigeria, the One Nigeria policy of General Gowon, which General Ojukwu had supported, until well after the beginning of the pogroms of the Hausa-Fulani against the Igbo people residing in the North, led to the consolidation of a state that remains ethnically fractious. This remains true today for many states in Africa, and beyond. Some attribute the rise of Boko Haram to the unremitting of hostility of some in the Muslim North to the progressive entrepreneurial spirit shown by the Igbo and their Eastern ethnic allies encapsulated in what was the Republic of Biafra. That the Easterners were largely Christian converts merely reflects the benefits these people derived from an education in initially missionary schools, but that flourished as Easterners proceeded to establish schools themselves and promote the values of a Western system of education and progress. The spread of a system of Western education, and the skills and values among the Easterners led to their promotion within the colonial Nigerian state bureaucracy, business and intellectual structures. The pogroms of 1966-67 led to Ojukwu's acceptance the decision of the Eastern Region's Consultative Assembly to opt out of the One Nigeria program, and establish the Republic of Biafra. Emefiena Ezeani's "In Biafra Africa Died," and Chinua Achebe's "There Was a Country" both provide substantiation for Forsyth's contemporary view of the conflict. The former is most valuable for the documentation provided regarding the former colonial power's role in the conflict, and the latter a personal memoir of what it meant to be public intellectual in the Biafran republic.I was a young teen during this conflict, and distinctly remember the images of suffering among the Biafrans. To have observed the ongoing struggles within Africa over the ensuing decades between differing ethnicities, religious divisions, and the personal and public political divides is truly disheartening. Perhaps Achebe's and Ezeani's view on the ultimate outcome, the triumph of national and international political corruption and collusion rather than the development of competent national government is most telling. A lesson apparently yet unlearned. I highly recommend this book as a starting point in understanding the Nigerian civil war on the basis of it's being a contemporary account, and as largely substantiated in retrospect. The author is clearly sympathetic to the Biafran cause, but I remain so, too.
I am very sad to say I was growing up when the years of this Biafra history were happening. I was also a resident in U.K. and actually living in the Constituency that Prime Minister Harold Wilson represented in Parliament before he became Prime Minister. That we as a country and particularly many who were concerned citizens at the time, were lied to so deeply and so often regarding this tragic time, has only come to my attention through this great book. The solid shame that must be heaped upon so many of those in our Government at the time, be they ministers, ambassadors, civil servants and the like, especially when they were in elected positions supposedly representing the people of Britain, is almost more than I can comprehend. I struggled initially to understand the logistics of this whole country as the map was only at the beginning of my Kindle downloaded book, so had no reference after I had started to read, of the area and the names of the towns. I would have wished for a paper copy of the map, which would have aided my reading. No matter, after several chapters in, I was able to figure it out and my horror began. I lived in Africa for a few years with my Engineer husband, so the pronunciation of many of the towns and cities was not too difficult, but there were so many names that were similar, no fault of the author I must hasten to add. The arrogance, the condescension and total disregard for human life recorded in this book is appalling and quite an eye opener. However, the shining light of human compassion once the true stories were reported from the likes of Frederick Forsyth and other correspondents, reporters and journalists, along with eye witnesses, could not be ignored. This gives me hope for the human race, albeit a small one. One could quote Man's inhumanity to Man at any point in this book and the one thing that truly upsets me is that we as humans, never learn. At least those who govern us never seem to at any rate. Politicians are a necessary evil, we do need people who will step forward to lead, but even today we are lead by the nose with lies and promises that there is no way they can keep. Several countries, the United States included, have a hand in brushing this tragedy under the rug. Mitigating circumstances for most included bad or untrustworthy information and reporting. I still have to finish this book, but my heart is heavy reading it. My grateful thanks to Frederick Forsyth for all his hard work putting the details together, to those Pilots, Red Cross Workers, Nuns, Priests, Volunteers from Church groups and Missionaries who risked their livesconstantly aiding these struggling people of Biafra, you are truly Giants amongst us. To the people of Biafra, I salute you and apologize on behalf of the whole human race for the atrocities that you were all subjected to. I hang my head that at the time I did not know, or do more to help.
