Description

This book represents the more than one views and perspectives of scholars, authors, historians, activists, statesmen and women, political commentators, and participants at the Nigerian conflicts, civil war, in addition to the person of Chukwuemeka Odumegwu Ojukwu. This book, which is an outcome of a research on existing literature, also gives a general overview of the issues and disagreements that led to the Nigerian civil war from more than one perspectives.
Although the Igbo race became the victim of the 1966 crisis that began with leadership struggles among Yoruba leaders, Igbos have been, both to themselves and others, made to appear to be the villains. Information gleaned from in the past classified documents has shed lights on such questions as: Used to be a calculated genocide planned against Igbos? What led to the war? Why did the Northern Nigerian leaders not stop the pogrom at the easterners and the mid-western Igbos? Did Gowon willingly or willingly enhance the mass killing of Igbos? What roles did Murtala Muhammed, Theophilus Danjuma, Muhammadu Buhari, Shehu Yar’ Adua, Ibrahim Babangida, Sanegeria (Sani) Abacha, Jeremiah Useni play in the crisis and mass killing of Igbos? To a couple historians, the war began with genocide against the Igbos in northern Nigeria. To a couple others, it began with the failure of the Aburi accord. A majority of these opinions and perspectives have been presented in this book.
