Nigeria is an Illegitimate & Criminal State

Back


Visit Biafraland Dot Com http://www.biafraland.com/ Nigerian officials commit crime against the indegenous people of the Biafras. From the Niger Delta, which the nigerian government calls "south-south", to the "South eastern" region,it is all the same: marginalization, exploitation, political & economic sanctions, and disregard for human life and Human Rights. The working policy of the State of Nigeria is to deprive Biafrans of the opportunity and means to satisfy their human needs of survival and prosperity, and when not entirely possible to accomplish this, to heap as many obstacles as possible in order to delay the provision of such needs of the Biafran people, even if Biafrans resort to using alternative means. Biafrans are killed on a daily basis all over Nigeria, including occupied Biafra. Most times, it is extrajudicial killing by Nigeria Police, Nigeria Armed Security Agencies, and Nigeria's Secret Death Squads. Even when such is admitted by the State of Nigeria's killing machinery there is no inquest, no accountability, no explanation, no apologies, no proper trials, no convictions, no remorse, and no compensation. Lately, MASSOB members have borne the brunt of these unconscionable acts. Biafrans are also killed en masse, singled out and targeted as a group, in Muslim Northern Nigeria, with a frightening cyclicity and staggering toll. This is the result of a combination of Muslim religious imperative coupled with racially-motivated and targeted mayhem directed against Biafrans. Once again, this is done openly, using state-provided logistics; there is no inquest, no arrests, no real trials, no convictions, no remorse, no apologies, no compensation and no end in sight for this abhorrent behavior; even when Biafran casualties number in the thousands. Although this atrocious activity qualifies as genocide and or ethnic cleansing, the international community has yet to react.

Were it not for the resiliency of the Biafran, the State of Nigeria, using government policies and individual prejudicial initiatives, would have totally destroyed the economic lifeline of the people of Biafra. The first blow occurred in 1970, following the end of the war. The state of Nigeria confiscated the pre-war bank accounts / assets of all Biafrans. Instead, Nigeria offered a flat rate of miserly 20 pounds (equivalent to 20 British pounds then) to each Biafran account owner, no matter what the balance-plus-interest was. This was an indication of (bad) things to come and set the tone and the pace for expectations of Nigeria by Biafra in the postwar era, expectations that have been validated by the ongoing persecution of Biafrans at the hands of the State of Nigeria. Since then, the government of Nigeria has banned or blocked or stifled legitimate economic activities in which there is a preponderance of Biafran owners. The 1966 massacres of Biafrans set the stage for the Biafra-Nigeria War of 1967 to 1970, during which Nigeria overstepped the bounds of what is acceptable in war, by maintaining a total food blockade of Biafra, aided by at least 6 other countries, including world-powers, resulting in the starvation-death of millions of Biafran children, women and elderly non-combatants. Nigeria's war doctrine, publicized then and put into practice during that war (and even now), was to kill every Biafran, including unborn children. It can thus be concluded and backed up by the experience of Biafrans and even the admissions of the State of Nigeria that the lives and property of Biafrans are to be taken and destroyed, not secured.

ir pains me SOOOO much to see this. although i am just 17 [and yes, nigerian], it hurts ti keep hearing and then see both in life and in the videos how none of the presidents have done anything to help. i feel like just getting rid of all the corrupt leaders and starting over. nigeriaa has SOO much potential.the money from oil can help in modernizing it and getting rid of all the trash [i.e onitsha&lagoss]...but instead it goes to the pockets of officials.
