Welcome to mjventertainment.blogspot.com: Editor’s note: In the last of a three part series on the BBC’s bias against the concept of Biafra, Herbert Ikwe-Ikwe argues that the corporation is continuing to further British interests in Nigeria by supporting the suppression of pro-Briafa protests. The very key BBC “secessionist” tag on Biafran independence was invoked by the Nigerian regime on 2 December 2015 after a news item aptly carried by the BBC on its website, before the regime ordered its forces to attack peaceful Biafran freedom demonstrators in Onicha. The BBC has still not found it fit to broadcast the predictable outcome of this Onicha attack to the world, in other words inform the world of the aftermath of the Nigerian regime’s blatant militarist threat to peaceful demonstrators. READ First Part: Read Why The BBC Is Allegedly Biased Against Biafra However, the following excerpts from the detailed report on what has since turned out as the Onicha massacre from the respected Lagos-based Civil Liberties Organisation is of utmost urgency: “A contingent of the heavily armed joint task force, consisting of personnel from the army, navy, police and security and civil defence force, on 2 December 2015, attacked thousands of unarmed members of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), a group seeking a separate republic to be called Biafra. “The joint task force stormed the head bridge at 01:30 last Wednesday and began shooting sporadically into the crowd, killing 11 protesters and injuring numerous more. “This is a case of gross violation of human rights, use of excessive force and a crime against humanity. “This barbaric act has no place in a modern society as it also gravely undermines all UN, AU and other international, regional and national human rights mechanisms. Nothing whatsoever can justify this flagrant infraction on the rights of the citizens.” Does British bias against Igbos stretch back decades? Once again, if anyone needs reminding that Nigeria has been, for the Igbo, a haematophagous quagmire throughout its history, and the saliency of this latest massacre cannot be overstressed. In June 1945 and May 1953, right under the very watch of the British occupation, the Hausa-Fulani north region allies of the conquest, opposed to the Igbo-led African restoration-of-independence campaign, carried out carefully planned pogroms against Igbo migrant populations in Jos and Kano. Hundreds of Igbo were murdered in these outrages. The occupation charged no one for these crimes and the pogroms became dress-rehearsals for the May 1966-January 1970 genocide. Since the beginning of phase-IV of the genocide, 13 January 1970, tens of thousands of Igbo have been murdered across Nigeria but especially in the northern region including those slaughtered by the Boko Haram terrorists. READ Second Part: Did BBC Bias Lead To Igbo Deaths In Civil War? Wednesday, December 2, 2015, has now become a graphically unnerving day of tragedy across two continents. In north America, an Islamist terrorist couple, husband and wife, embarked on the premeditated massacre of 14 peaceful citizens in San Bernardino, California, United States. In Africa, a terrorist Nigerian military brigade, assembled from specialised detachments of navy, army, police, secret police, and other undisclosed units, embarked on the premeditated massacre of 11 peaceful citizens in Onicha, Biafra, a number of them college students. The BBC has carried out expansive and continuing coverage of the San Bernardino massacre; the BBC has yet to cover the Onicha massacre in its broadcasts. Few now doubt the BBC’s doggedly entrenched position as a principal motivational ally in Nigeria’s prosecution of the Igbo genocide, presently humanity’s longest stretched genocide. An unprecedented wave of protests Biafrans will surely free their land. It is high time BBC editors got used to this eventuality. Since Friday, November 6, 2015, 33 days, hundreds of thousands of peaceful Biafrans have turned their cities and towns and villages into panoramic freedom park marches, unprecedented in Africa, demanding the restoration of the sovereignty of their beloved Biafra and insisting on the release of freedom broadcaster Nnamdi Kanu, illegally detained by the Nigeria regime. Biafrans are redefining the dynamics of the march for freedom in Africa. Biafra will be free. Nigeria, this essentially anti-African imperium created to programmatically enrich British strategic interests in perpetuity is, in fact, in freefall with its epitaph already signposting its dreadful history: Haematophagous Monster. Lest we forget: Those who lead this current phase of resistance to the Igbo genocide were the babies and children-survivors of the July 1967-January 1970 refugee death camps of Biafra.

The crime of genocide, thankfully, has no statute of limitations in international law. No other African peoples have suffered such an extensive and gruesome genocide and incalculable impoverishment in a century as the Igbo. All individuals and institutions involved in committing this crime, wherever they are or emplaced, will one day account for their role in court. In the meantime, the BBC will much sooner than later begin to come to terms with the fact that “what’s good” in the universal right of self-determination for those who live between latitudes 55 and 65˚N of the globe, for instance the Scots, “is good” for those who live between latitudes 4 and 14˚N, for instance, Biafrans.
