Nigeria: A Theatre of Crime And A Camp
Of Military Extra-Judicial Killings
By Anioke Chukwunonso
21st December 2020
A West African sub-regional enclave
called Nigeria, presently rates as the
world's third most terrorized country by
Global Terrorism Index Ranking. The
country has unrepentantly led in the
sponsorship of ethnic cleansing of
inhabited citizens and the pillaging of
her collective wealth.
Being equally described as a burial
ground by her suffering and greatly
impoverished citizens, the government has not failed on it's part to live up to it's billing by
catalyzing all the inherent atrocities being daily perpetrated. The Nigerian army has steadily
built extra-judicial execution camps within the military barracks under the close supervision
of the Nigerian government, not for the crop of Northern Fulani terrorists but for the very
oppressed citizens holed-up in the enclave especially Biafrans.
This is the consistent practice institutionally designed to annihilate their perceived enemies.
Those who place demand for their rights to freely live according to the humanitarian laws of
nature, are being criminalized and decisively death with albeit covertly as enemies of the
Nigerian state. Civil rights have been demonized to create the avenue for unprecedented
terror and anarchy.
Various extra-judicial camps are presently being established in Nigeria's military barracks,
where persons illegitimately/secretly killed by the army under the order of the Nigerian
presidency, are buried to conceal evidences of crimes against humanity. The Indigenous
People of Biafra (IPOB), do hereby through this medium place the global community on
notice as a result of these established extra-judicial camps variously located within the
military barracks. Biafrans' lives are daily being wasted in their numbers and the corpses
criminally concealed.
Their only offence against the so-called democratic government of Muhammadu Buhari is
exercise of their rights for just and peaceful co-existence. The Biafran Jewish adherents who
were abducted by the murderous and grossly unprofessional Nigerian army in Obigbo,
Rivers State, have reportedly been airlifted from their detention base in Biafraland to the far
away Northern region for summary execution.
This is what the Nigerian political leadership ostensibly does without legally constituting
investigation panels to ascertain the purported crimes of these captives against the state.
These innocent Biafran citizens are just being criminalized for belonging to a certain society
and religion. They were randomly abducted without any provocation known to the Nigerian
constitution. This is blatantly carried out against the principles of humanitarian laws of the
country which clearly stipulated that no man has the right over his fellow's life.
It is despicably a crime under the constitutional provision of Nigeria, to hold someone
hostage against his will for more than twenty four (24) hours without prosecution in court.
Is Nigeria really a country where decent, civilized and sane beings can inhabit? The Nigerian
Judiciary and the lawyers are currently the readily available arrows and weapons in the
hands of corrupt politicians. The security agencies have very disgustingly, become both the
judges and the executioners of the very helpless people they are constitutionally obligated
to protect.
Biafrans have over time, courageously weathered the storm by throwing the door open for
meaningful dialogue while demanding for peaceful disintegration of the country. Words
cannot however suffice in trying to describe the willingness of Biafrans to unfettedly live
with their stenght of character and respect for sanctity of life. Our existence as a people is
established on the spilled blood of our heroes/heroines who have paid the ultimate prize
defending their loved ones.
Our hope hinges on our bond to live and not on our physical strength. We will never
prevaricate on our sworn quest for freedom from the enslavement of neo-colonialism. This
we must get with even the last drop of our blood. We shall most assuredly defeat this
satanic enclave called Nigeria for the life assurance of both the present and the upcoming
Biafra generations. This is a promise hinged on our mandate that must never ever be
compromised.
