Biafra: OPEN LETTER TO UK PARLIAMENT

OPEN LETTER TO UK PARLIAMENT

To UK parliament the most civilized of all, intelligent and unmatched. Civilization has been your identity and it shall be sustained through moves that reflect or show commitment to the cause of civilization. I am very much convinced after fervent study that the amalgamation of southern and northern protectorate (merging of three existing nations) far back in 1914 was of goodwill. To assist human beings by means of putting them together for collective survival which would be easier for sustenance of life? My conviction is against the view that Britain handed majority Christian Biafran nation to Muhammedian emirates for economical gains which has left millions of Christian-Biafrans in graves.

It's very much obvious to me that the opposing or troublesome treaty signed over hundred years ago that lawfully expired in 2014 was fundamentally backed by Britain to sustain the lives of the northern protectorate. Human nature and sympathy was the driving force back then. It yet represented your passion for human nature and epitome of civilization that's your identity. Just like Great Britain, you addressed us as great Biafrans, showing glimpse of commonality and likeness. We are civilized people like you, we can be associated with- diplomatically and otherwise, we can do business and exchange ideas as civilized people. In Biafra you have nothing to lose. When I read of the motion moved on the floor of your noble and honorable parliament. It was no surprise to me, I know Biafran independence is due and freedom of Nnamdi Kanu your citizen will be achieved. I have my reasons: a British citizen should be respected in Nigeria and violation of a British citizen's right is violation of British government's right which I deem disrespectful. The opposing or troublesome amalgamation has lasted over hundred years and it's not-workable, as law-abiding government, you owe the world admission of Nigeria as illegal territory by reason that any unwelcomed or enforced treaty in hundred years expires.

The reason for creation of Nigeria has been contradicted by time, to save the lives of the northern people was, of which today the lives of the southerners is being taken in hundreds of thousand when Northerners has found her feet. Meanwhile, the lives of southerners needs to be saved now by means of independence, Nigeria opposed civilization in the sense that Northern protectorate kill Biafrans on daily basis for being Christians, forcing religion on us and today wants Islamic state where sharia shall be observed without interference. In 1967, we paid heavily for independence, millions of Biafran lives were lost, your government backed our extinction, and we were denied independence despite millions of lives sacrificed on the altar of independence. After the war of extinction against us, we were re-annexed but since 1967 till date we have been slaves and mascara has been the portion of Biafrans in Nigeria.

Nigerian government has never looked at Biafrans, at my 38years of age as a Biafran I don't know what seaport, good road, international airport, standard hospital, infrastructure and social amenity look like. My uncle only use to show me picture of them in Oduduwa and Arewa land (Nigeria). We were made slaves by conquest thus we seek to be free men today. The silence or support of British government in 1967 by virtue of time has proved to be a mistake and due to be corrected or what was defended then will be killed now. Civilization must be devoid of hypocrisy, it would be in the interest of civilization to right the wrongs of the past through undisputed support of the Biafran motion. We are being exterminated politically and economically because using guns and blockade will attract pity, our land produce the resource that sustain Nigeria, the resource is exploited at our own detriment, our land gets contaminated and leaves us in penury and vulnerable to diseases.

The wealth accrued is shared among Nigerians while Biafrans die in want and in the Mediterranean sea, seeking to cross over Europe for survival . There is no argument left that will stand against the independence of Biafra nor buttresses the illegal detention of Nnamdi Kanu the certified leader of indigenous people on Biafra; who has been a peaceful but outspoken leader, a leader that with his mouth and wisdom brought the much needed attention to the plight of Biafrans. Finally, Biafrans have paid for independence with their lives. We are better off dead than remain in Nigeria, we are massacred and incarcerated but it won't deter us. To the millions of Biafrans I carry their feelings, IT'S BIAFRA OR DEATH.

Yours humble, Ifeanyi Chijioke.

Britons you are nice civilized people but your government is behind or has created many adversarial policies that hurts the poor, the down trodden, anti Democratic uncivilized and inhuman.
