Why the Igbo Massacre of 1966-67?: From Hospitality to Hostility-Untold Story of the Biafran War

By Julius Afolalu

From HOSPITALITY
to HOSTILITY
-Untold Story of Biafran War:
WHY THE IGBO MASSACRE OF 1966-67?

Propaganda typically gives only one side of its story. Therefore, Biafrans begin their story with the massacres of 1966-67, when easterners, particularly Igbos, living in the North were subjected to indiscriminate and brutal slaughter.
As a result, they believed that their security lay only in the sovereign state of Biafra. By May 1967, most easterners preferred secession to any other form of association with Nigeria. They declared secession and a bloody civil war began.
As in all forms of propaganda, you need to hear the other side of the story to find the truth. Before the massacre, the Hausa/Fulani oligarchy and Igbo hegemony in the East were allies and coalition partners in the government that ushered Independence for Nigeria.
In addition, Dr. Nnamdi Azikiwe, Col. Odumegwu-Ojukwu, Major Patrick Nzeogwu, and many Igbo foremost leaders were born in Northern Nigeria. The North was hospitable enough to be a second home to the Igbos.
So, what happened that HOSPITALITY drastically changed to HOSTILITY? The answer is fully researched and supplied in this book.
