Any other rebellion or secession would have died on arrival with the destruction of the officer corps from the East yet the survivors were able to pick themselves up, form the staff for the new biafran army and shouldered the execution of the war for three years thus outbesting even the so called best the Federal army had ....without critical weapons....unlike other seccessionists movements that are flooded with weapons and yet cannot get the job done... This is an undying testament to the professionalism and skill plus warcraft of the Biafran officer corps...those who were commissioned before independence, after independence, at the start of the pogrom, those who survived the pogrom, the start of the civil war, during the climax of the civil war and the conclusing stages of the civil war...we salute you.

At same time the same crooks behind this fire were smuggling weapons into South Sudan as President Nelson Obote exposed.That pot finally boiled over into the desired mess 50 years on.

Why Nigeria still refers only to the first coup without much reference to this most deadly coup is actually not funny

Why Ibo why? You ended regionalism because you were envious of South West? You put the whole Nigeria in mess because of your selfish interest. History will judge you.
