This was not a formal discussion, but very informal in style and using some social media shorthand and the usual mistakes made trying to type on a telephone. Please read it for the information it provides with understanding about the conditions under which the chat was made.

(Journalist)-Yes.I'll Be Glad To Answer All Your Questions.But I Will Want To Understand More On What You Want To Know From Me.Are You Talking About #Biafra And Nigeria.Please Specify

(Me)-I want to hear more about the different adversaries that that are at odds in Biafra and Nigeria. I spent several months in Nigeria, mostly around Lagos and Port-Harcourt. Would also like to know the names of the different clans and tribes. I appreciate your help. Africa is beginning to blossom albeit with growing pains - but it seems to be doing a lot better than when I was there in the 1980's.

(Journalist)-#Biafra has been in existence for more than five thousand Years.Biafra Consists Of The Old Eastern Region Nigeria.They Are Decendants Of Israel (Jews) Residing Here In The Eastern Region Of Nigeria.The Are Happy,strong And Very Blessed Nation.With Many Human,solid And Mineral Resources.They Survived As On Great Nation,until 1914 When The British Came To This Place And Decided To Join #Biafra To Other Two Tribes Living In The Modern Day Nigeria.For The Purpose Of Satisfying Their Own Selfish Interest.But The Biafrans Refused To Be Amalgamated With The Other Two Tribes "Hausa" And "Yoruba" Who Are Muslims And Believe In Killing Anybody Who Do Not Believe In What They Believe In As Muslims.Besides They All Have Different Culture And Human Value System With The Biafrans.But They Were Forced Into That Unholy Marriage By The British.But When The British Saw That The Trio Are Like Oil And Water Which Can Never Mix,they Decided To Make An Agreement.

(Journalist)-The Agreement Was That After 100yrs,if Any Of These People Feels They Are Been Marginalized And Decides To Leave,they Will Be Allowed To Do So.But The Hausa's And Yoruba's Out Of Envy And Jelousy Against Biafrans Which As Hitherto Said Were Richly Blessed By G-d.Began To Marginalise The #Biafrans.With Various Series Of Genocides Against The Biafran People By The Hausa's (From The Northern Nigeria) And The Yoruba's (From Southern Nigeria).

(Journalist)-The First Recorded Genocide Against Biafrans Was In Jos,Plateau State (Northern Nigeria) In The Year 1945.To Make Matters Worst,the British Who Actually Created Nigeria For There Own Personal Interest Supported The Hausa's And Yoruba's (Nigeria) Against The Biafrans.The Killings Of Biafrans Continue Till 1966 When The Nigeria Government Came To Biafra Land And Massacred Over Five Thousand Biafrans.For No Just Course.Just Because The Don't Like The Biafrans.That Forced The Biafran People To Declare Themselves Independent From The Nigerian State.To Stop Further Killings

(Journalist)-The British Seen That Biafran Independence Spells Doom For Them.Because They Will No Longer Have Access To Biafra Oil Which Is Their Target For Keeping Nigeria One.

(Journalist)-They Declared War Against The Nation Of Biafra.Britian Lied To The World And The Believed Them And Joined Them To Wage War Against Biafrans.So Britain,Germany,Russia And Many Arab Nations Joined Hands Together To Fight Biafrans.To Them,they Believed It Will Take Less Than 3weeks To Wipe Away Every Living Thing In Biafraland.Because Biafrans Had No Weapon To Fight Them.But To Their Gratest Suprise,the Biafrans Resisted All Of Them And The War Lasted For 3yrs And Some Months.The Biafrans Fought With Anything They Can Lay Hands On Just To Avoid Going Extint Which Is What The British Wants Till Date.When The British And Nigeria Government Saw That Things Were Not Going The Way They Planned It,the Decided To Use Hunger As A Weapon Of Warfare Against The Biafra People.So They Blocked Both Land,Sea And Air So Relief Materials Couldn't Enter Biafraland

(Me)-I had no idea! It is a familiar story with the British though. India had the same problems with their overlords (The British). It wasn't until the Indians found a leader who was able to stand up to the British tyranny that they became independent.

(Me)-Just east of Port-Harcourt, I witnessed the special forces of Nigeria execute a village because they objected to the oil interest encroaching on their way of life. It was sad, But I understood from that day why we had to sleep in "safe houses". A government that isn't supported by the people is very unstable. When I was in Nigeria, there were the very rich and the very poor - no 'in-between's'. I wish you the best and want very much to learn more, and about the progress the Biafran's are making. Thank you very much, the national news doesn't give any background about the struggles of people just wanting to be free, or maybe they are just corrupted.

(Journalist)-And Over 3 million Biafrans Including Children And Pregnant Women Were Massacred During That Genocide "Nigeria Civil War" Between 1967-1970.When Biafrans Had Nothing More To Lay Hand On,they Surrendered.Then The Nigeria Government Siezed Every Property And Money Owned By Biafrans.No Matter How Rich Any Biafran Was Before The War,they Were All Given Only 20pounds.Yet Britain Lied To The World That There Were "No Victor,No Vanquished".Many Biafrans Who Resigned From The Nigerian Military To Fight For Their Fatherland (Biafra) Were Massacred,While Many Were Sent To Prison.And Nobody Seemed To Be Talking About Biafra Anymore And The Genocide Against Biafrans Continued Till Date.But Few Years Ago A Young Man By Name NNAMDI KANU,Who Happens To Be A Prince As Predicted By Nostrademus "The Man Who Saw Tommorow". NOTE: Search Google For More Details.

(Journalist)-Those People You Witnessed Their Death While In Nigeria Were Biafrans From The River-line Are Of Biafra.That Place Is Called Odi,a Town In "Bayelsa State",as It Is Called By Nigeria Government.

(Journalist)-When The Young Man Came Up And Decided To Fight For The Freedom Of His People,he Opened A Radio/ T.V Station Called Radio Biafra And Biafra Television Respectively.The Radio Station Is Based In London

(Journalist)-Visit www.Radiobiafra.co Or www.Biafratv.co .Now The Young Man (Nnamdi Kanu) Was Arrest By The Nigeria Government Since 14th October 2015 And He Has Been In Detention Under Heavy Torture And Hard Labour Since Then.Different Court Orders Has Been Given For Him To Be Released Unconditionaly,but The Nigeria Government Lead By Muhammed Buhari A Peadophile And Terrorist Who Raped A 9year Old Girl As A 45year Old Man.He Is The Founder Of The Deadly Terrorist Organisation Boko Haram And He Is Also Their Chief Sponsor.

(Me)-Thanks, do you mind if I post your remarks? I only have 155 FB friends, but chances are good that some of them will share those remarks. Popular opinion can help! As far as I know, the Biafran side of the story has never been publicized. The English speaking press dutifully omits those things that you speak about. Are there others that need to be heard?

(Journalist)-Now We The Biafran People Came Out On The Street To Have Peaceful Protest Against The Arrest And Illegal Detention Of Our Leader.Then The Murderous Nigeria Government Ordered The Police,Army And Navy To Shoot At Us.This Has Happened On Various Occassions.Between August 2015 Till Date Nigerian Government Has Commited Various Degrees Of Pogrom Against The Biafrans Some Of The Include:

• (1) 30th August 2015 At Onitsha
• (2)1st-2nd December 2015 At Onitsha
• (3)17th December 2015 At Onitsha(Which Am On Of The Victims)
• (4)14th January 2016 At Portharcourt
• (5)9th February 2016 At Aba
• (6)Our Mothers Were Also Shot At Awka,Anambra State Capital In February,date Unspecified And Many Of Those Who Went For One Of The Court Cases Of Our Leader In Abuja Were Also Arrested.
• (7)Asaba,Delta State April 2016
• (8)The Most Recent Is On 30th May 2016 At Nkpor.Where More The 500 Biafrans Were Shot.Almost 200 Died At The Spot While More Than 300 Sustained Bullet Wounds.

(Journalist)-To Make Matters Worst,the Nigeria Military Took Away The Body Of The 200 Unarmed Biafrans That They Killed,poured Them Raw Acid And Buried Them In A Mass Grave Inside The 302 Arttilary Division (Army Barrack) Onitsha.The Video Is Been Televised Everyday On Biafra Television

END of CHAT

Britain's "Nation Building" created chaos throughout the Middle East, India, and Africa. Everywhere they redrew borders and divided people using their military might is a lesson that I hope doesn't go unnoticed. What's done is done and hopefully will not happen again. The human misery from such actions is something that every peace loving person should pay attention to.
