By way of a minor clarification to comments suggesting the contrary, let me state here that the illicit, unspoken understandings around the Oil and Gas Reserves in Nigeria, between the roguish British Government of the time and the criminally Junta of Yakubu Gowon/Murtala Mohammed that erected itself as “The Federal Government of Nigeria”, not only preceded the War but was in fact the main Objective of the British- guided Federal side of the War.
As a matter of fact, it was the idea of the British, driven by oily considerations, to forcefully keep the collapsed Federation of Nigeria One because the North preferred to end the Federation and so staged the July 29, 1966 revenge Coup in which they declared the Secession of the Northern Region from Nigeria in a very bloody Operation they called “Araba” (Hausa for “Let’s share it”) which began with the murder of Nigeria’s then Head of State and General Aguiyi-Ironsi and the over 300 Eastern Nigeria Officers and Men and which ballooned to the mass xenophobic killings of Easterners in Northern Nigeria (pogroms) that went on for months with casualty figures in excess of 30,000.
By the declassified accounts now available and in the possession of the LNC, right at the onset of those July 29 1966 hostilities that directly precipitated the 1967-1970 War against the East, the British, through it’s then High Commissioner to Nigeria, Sir Cummings, had prevailed upon Gowon and his henchmen who had already declared the secession of the North (Araba), and who had already moved the seat of Government to Ilorin, to stop the secession move. Britain farmed out parts of that wholesale concession to other World Powers of the time in what was clearly a bribery scheme, to buy their look-the-other-way as Genocide was levied against Biafra. Let those who wish to, research how Gulf Oil (now Chevron), Mobil, Elf and Agip got here.
Russia (then Soviet Union) had Oil at home and so did not need to take Oil acreages but was rather given an Open Order, at double market prices of the time, to supply the hardwares for that War and so came the Russian MIG-Jet Fighters, dreaded Illushyn Battle Tanks and the now notorious AK-47 Assault Riffles.
Whispering to those who hated Jews that the mainly-Igbo Biafrans were actually the lost tribe of Israel, Britain recruited young Egyptian Pilots to fly the the MIG Jet Fighters over Biafra, dispensing death with venom, convinced that these Jews must be exterminated. (I had a chance meeting two of those Egyptian Pilots that rained bombs on Biafra in Orlando Florida 2012 when I went to address the Annual Convention of the World Igbo Congress at the Double Tree Hilton, directly opposite Disneyland. The two men, then in their late 60s were in town for another engagement but took special interest at what they found out to be a Convention of the survivors from the Biafra.
Time heals everything. That’s all I can say of that encounter in which those men, driven by a great sense of guilt opened up on aspects of the atrocities not widely known. Out of sheer curiosity, they had temporarily left their own itinerary to come watch me address an audience in the weeklong Convention also attended by Jewish Guests).
In exchange for a 50-year wholesale concession to Britain of the Oil and Gas Assets of Eastern Nigeria signed off by Gowon, the British, from behind the scene, took over and directed the entire sordid commotion that eventually became a Genocide of 3.5 million lives against the East. (It is the Documents which the poorly educated Gowon signed off at that time that had rendered practically impossible all attempts to alter the Petroleum Industry Regulation all these years, just for the enlightenment of those who crow up and down about the non-passage of the jinxed “Petroleum Industry Bill” PIB, in the Nigerian Legislature, in Abuja).
To date, Britain and its Partners-In-Crime are still keeping the loot from that War of Genocide by way of the 3million barrels per day bloodoil controlled by a one-sided Britain/Caliphate Joint Venture, operated by Shell and its Six Sisters.
The violent ousting of President Goodluck Jonathan of Eastern Nigeria, orchestrated by the 1967 Alliance, in the bloody marauding that was called “2015 Elections”, had its roots and main bearings in the calculus around the renewal of fraudulently obtained Oil and Gas Concessions, 50 years.
Those from Eastern Nigeria who do not know these should find out what John Kerry was doing in Sokoto and what the 12 Northern Governors went to do in Washington DC in the run up to that so-called 2015 Election.
The LNC is thoroughly convinced by empiricism, that the remedy to what has befallen the entrapped Constituent Components of the British-Built Caliphate Prison called “Nigeria”, is the breaking and dismantling of that Caliphate Prison. Those who do not understand the desperate outburst of Paul Arkwright, the Emissary of London to Abuja, in his recent heresy of Nigeria’s Unity being nonnegotiable should review the obdurate British One-Nigeria stance against the verifiable facts supplied herein, but the LNC can guarantee that the ground zero reality is far from the hallucinations of Mr Arkwright.
