This is not the first time Nigerians are talking Biafra. The first time was what led to the Civil War, also called the Biafran War, that lasted 3 years from 1967-1970.
We bring to us these photos as blast from the past to remind us why another Biafran struggle is really not a good idea:
1. Happy children sadly made orphans
These innocent children probably have no idea where their parents are or what will happen next.
2. Citizens become refugees on the run
They are not sure where they are going is safe. Only taking their chances.
3. Refugee camps become the new home
Like a poet once said, the victims of war are not only those who have died, but also those left to count their losses.
4. Rationed milk and supplies for the starving children
So little cannot save so much.
5. “Shoot on sight”
Our soldiers become hunters waiting for trespassing antelopes.
6. Everyone becomes a suspect
How do convince your captors that you are truly innocent?
7. Our children too will be dragged into it
Life, as it is, is hard enough. We can’t make it harder.
8. A war means too many lives lost
It is the wife of a soldier, who can’t do anything now to help her, getting burnt
9. “Hold on, the first aid kit will soon be here”
We may not be able to save as many as we think we can
10. Too many casualties
The victims will be eternally scarred – physically, emotionally, psychologically.
