It has been announced today that the Biafran administrative capital of Urnuahia has been captured by the Federal forces. Biafra is reduced to a small enclave with one airstrip and limited military resources, as supplies especially from France have dried up.
A “THIS WEEK” film team has been with a student delegation in Biafra and were at Umuahia when it was evacuated as well as seeing fighting at Owerri, the refugee camps and the various means by which the air lift both of relief and of munitions has been carried on. -Can Biafra hang on any longer? Is there any possible pre-condition for a surrender? Will the general massacre which most Biafrans fear actually take place if the rest of the country is over-run?

The last part made me cry... When the soldier said we have faith in God and I don't think he will allow us to be defeated.. MAY THE SOUL OF THE DEPARTED REST IN PEACE AND MAY WE FIGHT ON FOR THE LAND OF THE RISING SUN....
Last last, God allowed them to be defeated

Nothing on earth shall stop the coming of Biafra..not even Britain. The souls of our falling heroes shall not be in vain... All Hail BIAFRA!!!!
Dave Basil, Rev 7:4 , Rev 1:14 is connected to this. The British media house requested for 144,000 parcels and were sent 1,444,000 parcels. The used the cotton and wool money to pay for it. I read all this things bro. We are the people of the bible, we are suffering the curses placed on our forefather's in Deuteronomy 28:1_68. Let's us come out from all this Pagan Christian worship and go by to the God of our fathers Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, the old testament God.
Declan Christian 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣😅
I hate Britain with passion
We are Biafra
DREAM
the standard of education and fluency of English spoken is quite a marvel amongst 90% of the Igbos interviewed here . my heart goes out to many that lost Their lives...
Sad to say the then british govt of harold wilson played a shameful role in the events in what would rightly become known as the biafran genocide.
The British Government of today still plays a shameful role as the same Nigerian army which metamorphosed from the slave hunting terror group unleash terror on innocent people while the British Government who are their sponsors look the other way.No one can say what the British gains from bloodshed, violence, slavery and subjugation of Biafra with their Fulani and Yoruba foot soldiers.
what genocide please? the whole genocide story was wartime propaganda, please check your sources
johny 56 You and Harold Wilson are no different,spineless devils! 𝙰𝚗𝚞 𝚘𝚏𝚘𝚒𝚊.
@@badboybrizzy5702 An American company based in Switzerland created the story my guy google am. Atrocities were committed on both sides of the war but there was no basis for the genocide allegation, eve when Nigerian forces pulled out of Owerri they followed by refugees, 13years after the war an ibo man was vp, even in military rule an ibo officer who fought in Biafran navy was vp so what are you abusing me for? stop deceiving yourself
@@badboybrizzy5702 see your eye like spineless devil lol, go read and learn properly bros
Call it what you choose... it was genocide against Biafrans. Why the world refused to recognise it for what it was is wicked.
Because it wasnt genocide thats why it wasnt recognised as such..
Ireland recognised biafra.
@Toby Nnaji bet he had rich parents and wanted more power,,.
@Toby Nnaji you are either commenting in a false name (to claim you're an Easterner) or have no grasp of the events that led to the genocide. Keep up.
@Toby Nnaji it's obvious you're from the West of Nigeria. Your activities during the genocide were well-documented.
God bless who so ever, any country ever, that provided food for the dieing children!
Im shocked at how so well spoken the biafrans were they are obviously more educated then there counterparts in the north.
Yes God bless them. However, Gowon wanted to send food with a land convoy Ojukuwu refused yet he and his confederates ate well throughout while so many others in Biafra made money off their fellow Igbos suffering through selling donated food and in the end Ojukwu left his starving flock while the wholesale genocide he predicted never occurred
You see why MNK / IPOB is fighting for Biafra restoration!
Or rather they're fighting for the slaughter of the innocent while he will eventually left as Ojukwu did... atleast learn from the past O Biafra
They're all greedy just like ojukwu
Let the next war start, we will see where the war front will be. It won’t be in umuahia, Aba, Onitsha, Enugu, I guarantee this. There will be a revenge and the war will get to Daura, Kano, Kaduna. Definitely will NOT be one sided anymore. For those telling the Biafrans to remember how it was, yes they remember and there will be a revenge.
😜😜😏
Do you enough resources to cover the land from Umuahia to Daura? You.are beginning to lose the war again. You are too bitter, try and use your brains for once.
Please calm down my beloved brother let's use our head one day definitely one day our brother will be the president
@@nnaomauba1059we don't care about presIDIOCY of Zoogeria!

You will be defeated again.
The igbos are evil, greedy and emotional. Such a group can never win a war.
Victory is in the hand of The Most High, and it comes at his own appointed time
Who is ‘The Most High’?
Story story, storryyyy
It feels like the reporters were actively trying to sabotage their resistance first by talking about the ammunition planes and second by insisting the guy tell them where they get their money from even after he said 'if I tell you where we get it from the people fighting us will be able to take it away.' that all together with Britain's culpability in the war makes it feel like a deliberate strategy
I my self will forgive Nigeria but will never forgive British and British with France must fall . Mark my word.
France supported Biafra
@@kellyk6787
It was unofficial. Only some French mercenaries fought on Biafra side.
Truly you sound like a man intoxicated with rum and high on cheap weed
U have to forgive everyone so that your heavenly father GOD himself will forgive you
They are falling with the help of your Brethren from North Africa ruining them by causing a rakus in their lands and depopulating the natives
War is as old as man. Only those who have experienced war live to tell its tale of woes.
War is not as old as man
I somuch love the faith and courage ur Biafra soldier has i believe we will win one day
Chaii ! God have mercy on your people of biafra
Hope some pple are watching this wherever they are. This wasnt pleasant; we dont want a repeat of the kwashiokor and loss of lives.
@Dago Zman Brave man, were u at Orlu? Hope u are ready to defend d innocent ones killed.
Well said dear. War isn't a good experience at All
Please tell them o. A fool is that man that allows himself to fall twice into the same pit
it is a war crime to stop food
But the reason why the war started in the first place is still repeating itself.
Their accent were so good. God give us biafra
After all this, you never still get sense, you still dey follow kanu wey dey London dey shout biafra, don't worry, a child who is dancing the insurugede dance on eke, Market day, forget that the dance are for the spirit, should be prepared to stand the wrut of the spirit

@@onyejiikechukwu6185 no I don't have sense, keep on following
There is no way that war could have continued without food.
...and Ojukwu was responsible for that war

This war was avoidable, its so sad seeing ds. So so sad . If separation will bring peace so be it for God sake. Let each region be on its own.
Highly intelligent young men wasted.
they weren't wasted, they fought for what they believed in and that proves them not cowards, don't forget that you too will die some day and also waste to the dust of the earth now what is the different between you and them?
What else do you expect from wars?
Not wasted but were heroes!
Biafra born heroes! highly knowledgeable, intelligent and brave. This is why we remember our fallen heroes every 30th May.
It makes me wonder, why didn’t Uk prime minister Wilson in 1967 work with the United States like they have worked together on other matters to secure a Ban on arms, Uk government leader disregarded United States decision not to sell arms to the Nigerians and continued to supply them with ammunition’s
Despite the large quantities of arms, but they still didn’t win the war as they claimed they would win in one week, it took 30months Very heavy losses inflicted in the battles by both sides.
The flower of Nigerian manhood destroyed and millions of Biafrans died of hunger, the most ghastly form of human torture.
This war was hideous and unjust, it helped encourage a huge legacy of bitterness, pain and hatred, added to all the other volatile factors which have kept Nigeria in such difficulty in past and recent years.

Tears out from my eyes, I think biafra of then is better than biafra of now
Weep not ma bro The Almighty has vindicated us en all hail Mazi Nnandi Kanu
Because Biafra of then had loyalty, committed and genuine in their approach, too many dishonest men that don’t know where they stand currently exist in human form in Biafra of today
I can never forgive Nigeria for what they have done to my people
Yeah right, easy to hold others responsible for your own mistakes.
Then every one of them posses the efficient command of English
Don't worry non of them need your forgiveness, because your forgiveness is not relevant
@@irmamah.1425 Who are you talking to?
Nigeria will also not forgive biafran traitors who killed Nigerias first prime minister Tafewa Balewa, and Saudana!!
the killing of those great men! was the cause of all biafran troubles till this day
Wonderful
Biafra must rise again through the power of the most high
The problem in Nigeria isn't solved till today,....we pray for no more war in Nigeria again. The separation should be peacefully. We are not one people
No, never will I resort to war to resolve a disagreement. This is sad. Look at the women and children. God touch our leaders. This must not repeat itself.
What ever that comes from God we take were never difited my brother you all do the needful thing at the right time may your souls rest in peace but Nigeria will have us to contend with
😢😓😢
Can Nigeria not survive without Biafra? It's time talks started on how the breakup will be.
Yeah good idea! Time to put your heads together to start thinking again to start the war, good idea to put your civilians through hell again, only to blame it on others.
@@irmamah.1425
Must there be a war?
What happened to peaceful separation?
@@irmamah.1425 Ode buruku. Dem go tok seperation this one go tok war.
The British journalist pretending to be reporting but at the same time working for the collapse of Biafra
You are very smart. They think we don't know.
biafra stands for a work of conditions that are still current to this day, fear, death, hunger, desert, and drought and the despair of the poor countries, that which actually occurs in all countries and or can still occur.
We move freedom is ours, my great people of Biafra
can the spirit of Biafra killed be invoke upon those who killed them?
noting can stop Biafra raison sun one love Biafra's
ldoko way Stephen Well, we’ll just have to wait and see despite your belief. I’m sure Ojukwu strongly believed that he would win the war.
A O O with have gain in this ur meaningless comment son of Pharaoh
@@aoo2645 he believed it he proudly fought the enemies. If not the help the enemies got from British government Biafran would have defeated the enemies.
@@chukwuifeanyi8588 Well…I’m glad that you’re beginning to understand the complexities of war…Ojukwu/Biafra also got immense external help
British can never have any embassy in Biafra land and our citizen will be band from entering British because killed many of our brothers, sisters and parents
As I child in Biafra in 1969, I ate some of the foods donated and flewn into Biafra by courageous people.
It would have been more effective to avoid that brutal war in the first place.
Nothing good came from that Civil War, in my opinion.
Thank you. I really hope the war is not repeated again 😢...these days i hear of simon ekpa thier current leader have up to 15000 soldiers
Chineke so biafrans made oil refineries yet Nigeria has none after 62 years at least not working but in the three years of biafra they had refineries no wonder Britain loves Nigeria so much
why no volume?
Because no volume
"I don't think God will allow us to be defeated." Sadly not prophetic words.
I don't think God will allow us to be defeated 🗿
Who says Biafran won't be, but so many lives be lost in the process?
Tears in my eyes
I love the last line
I DONT THINK GOD WILL ALLOW US TO BE DEFEATED
we are still fight that war and we will WIN
My observation of life is that God just does whatever he wants. We are all disposable pawns in his grand game called the universe. 🥺
I love biafra
This shit made me to emotional for the very first time in my life. “ I don’t think God will allow us to be defeated “
I am ashamed of this country and I continue to marvel at human wickedness and the insensitivity of the International community to the sufferings of innocent children, more especially as there has not been any change to the lopsided scheme of things.
Because you are looking at half history. This was was started by Igbos, the killing of northern leaders in 1966, and their families. They were civilians, it’s uncalled for. So when the repercussions started, no one but ojukwu could stop it by surrendering
@@Relevance4life wow yabukwu literally started the war the ignorance of igbos U know nothing and brainwashed by the government
@@Relevance4life Fulani slave
Blame Ojukwu and the 1966 January coup plotters
General Ojukwu went to war to fast without thorough preparation. Biafra didn't not loose the war however they failed to achieve independence because of poor preparation by their leaders.
There's no such thing as Nigeria. Biafra Republic will remain in the minds of the Igbos as long as the hausa dominated federal government refuse to change their wickedness.
Igbos must unite and stop killing each other but start economic and social empowerment of fellow Igbos.
The sincerity in your post is overwhelming. You are very right sir..
Young soldiers. Any way to track them ? Did they make it alive ? Oh lord
Shame on all Biafran elite that is against MNK. SHAME ON YOU ALL.
God bless Biafra
God bless Nigeria
A war which would have been prevented; but sadly, it happened!
It shouldn't have been started
And in the process our economy collapse.
We should have been the most richest country in this world but everything was scattered by the war
Oh my God help us 🕯️
Seeing children recruited to fight is so disheartening!
Different times
I'm in pain for the children
biafra staat voor een werk van toestanden die op deze dag nog steeds actueel zijn, angst, dood, honger, woestijn, en droogte en de wanhoop der arme landen, dat wat eigenlijk in alle landen voorkomt en of nog kan voor komen.
I am Biafran lived in Valkenswaard for years. Can’t wait to dump this Nigerian passport and identity.
Those who haven't experienced war crave for it ignorantly. Better learn to resolve your differences peacefully than have another war
We shall never give up on our struggle
They could have ur dad and mum fool like u
Don't start a fight you cannot finish. Hope a lesson has been learnt and Nnamdi Kanu IPOB don't start kick the war again. Peace to all loving Nigerians.
U are a fool if not uk and usa do u think the Zoo will win just think deep my pal .
In your dream. Just let hope and pray there is no war again and that things are settled through dialog. If your people start a new war again, consider it the end of Igbo tribe in Nigeria. No second chance will be given to your people.

@@kelvinsolomon465 fool at 40
With all these propaganda they still lost the war
That's what happens when the leader was in some selfish fantasy...
The Biafran was indeed so inadequately armed and very much less matching the Nigerian army.
Ojukwu should have known that before he started the war. That man seriously lacked farsightedness and was delusional too.
@@irmamah.1425 If the supply of food wasn't cut short, you won't probably say this.. Biafra a died more from starvation than from the war
Stanley Rome so he should have ended the war long before his people started starving.
azikwe was more realistic and loved his people better. He realised the futility of war and quickly changed sides.-persuaded Ojukwu to do the same. Salutes to Azikwe
@@irmamah.1425 Remember Ojujwu was a soldier and his mindset will be different from zik.. Zik wanted one Nigeria but it seemed like it wasn't working out so Ojujwu felt the easterners should be on their own,now is it a crime to want to be on your own?
Stanley Rome yes it is a crime.
It is a crime and a selfish one too.
You have to weigh your pros and cons before making a move. --you cannot just rush into a war, without thinking. Otherwise you only end up hurting your own people. - which is what Ojukwu did. Salutes to Azikwe for having the wisdom to want to save his people, from an even more humiliating defeat.
Even if Nigeria is divide today we must avenge this .
Did you know that even with the millions of lives lost, till date Biafrans did not regret are nt regretting and will never regret going into that war
Did you know how Igbos were being treated and massacred in the North? Businesses destroyed, market men and women, children killed in numbers
Just watched movie Tears of the Sun.n it brought me here...apparently this was the first black on black genocide ever recorded
...and who caused it?
It wasn't exactly black on black. The Soviets and Brits tactically supervised one side to commit genocide and covered up the atrocities
I was told this story is not good thing to experience
See there English so fluent I know the English guys will be stunned . Biafra are wise people
All hail Baifra I like Baifra
15:25 I don't think God would allow us to be defeated! Deep
All hail Biafra ❤
The Countries that offered relief were not the only ones guilty of "prolonging" the war.
1. Ifeajuna and three fellow officers - Victor Banjo, Phillip Alale and Sam Agbam - were accused by Emeka Ojukwu, of plotting against him and the breakaway Republic of Biafra.
They denied charges of treason. They were trying to save lives and their country, they said, by negotiating an early ceasefire with the federal government and reuniting Nigeria. They failed, they died and, in the next two and a half years, so did more than a million Igbos.
The day of the execution was 25 September, 1967, and the time 1.30pm. There was a very short gap between trial and execution, not least because federal troops were closing in on Enugu, the Biafran capital, giving rise to fears that the “guilty four” might be rescued.
As the execution approached, the four men were tied to stakes. Ifeajuna, with his head on his chest as though he was already dead, kept mumbling that his death would not stop what he had feared most, that federal troops would enter Enugu, and the only way to stop this was for those about to kill him to ask for a ceasefire.
2. Jaja Anucha Wachukwu participated in the struggle of the Igbo people for freedom and justice against Nigeria.
Later, during the war, he fell out with the Government of Chukwuemeka Odumegwu Ojukwu because he spoke out against the recruitment of child soldiers.
He was arrested and detained by the Ojukwu Government. And was, at the end of the Biafran war released by a young Nigerian Army Officer called Theophilus Danjuma.
3. The Administrators of Biafra knew they had limited ammunition and food to keep on with the war. However they continued despite all negotiations.

4. Ojukwu was very much alive and well till his passing in 2011.

When, there is An Expanded, Balanced Narrative on A Situation, there's Authenticity.
. Both Sides had supporting Nations
. Both sides had casualties
. Nigeria wanted truce. Hence the several, continuos negotiations with key persons (Administrators) of Biafra
. No one wanted to annihilate a group. Both sides were at war. It was not a case of Nazi Germany trying to create a "Living Space" , hence, their agenda of final solution of the Jews.
Let us quit the agenda of blackmailing and Cherry-picking ... gaslighting.
No one is trashing the controversies surrounding the predominantly Igbo led coup d'état that saw the assassination of Major government officials less those of Igbo tribe. Though they set out as coup based on National Interest, it ended as a Tribalistic one.
Even Nzeogwu, a truly nationalist officer, was distraught by the tribalistic turn out of the coup by the coupists sent to carry out assassination in the Eastern region.
Do you think those who were assasinated in the Jan 1966 first Nigerian coup, don't have living relatives?
Till date families of Victor Banjo, who was executed by Ojukwu, are still mourning.
----------------
We can keep at pointing fingers. But if we do not give a balanced narrative, we would not find a middle ground.
Every Tribe is mourning.
You are pathetic.
I would reply you, but that would mean condescending to your ignorance.
Typing twenty paragraphs doesn't make you wise dear.... your argument clearly shows how empty you really are as regards the facts leading to the war.
Officers were killed during Nzogwu led coup...and there was no counter coup🤔..which killed Ironsi?
Yet the counter coup didn't stop the massacre of more than 30,000 Southerners (mostly Igbos) in Northern Nigeria 🤔

...
Why can't you go your way? Are you the same thing with igbos? They don't want to be together with you,...na by force?
Ojukwu wanted to rule at all cost.
Easterners wanted revenge for the 1966 massacres.(propaganda)
Northerners/westerners wanted to end Igbo domination.(propaganda)
Gowon wanted submission from Ojukwu.
French wanted oil.
Britain wanted oil.
Halie Selassie wanted a Noble peace prize.
Russia wanted money.
The war, to an extent would have been totally avoidable if our Leaders at that time, had let go of their FOOLISHNESS and recognize that they were being played by these outsiders, and then work in unity for the general good of the people.
Please go and read accounts on the whole 'BIAFRA' situation. Don't rely solely on what old folks tell you, most of their stories are as a result of propagandas spread by Ojukwu and Gowon before and after the war.

Let's think, time for fighting wars is past, with democracy we should be able to find ways via our constitution to solve our challenges. Look at that girl, confused and lost, see that cripple woman, no need to rehash this horrors again, let us learn from it and move on, otherwise, this time it will be worse, we must avoid it.
