Celebrating the life of Professor Herbert Ekwe-Ekwe

Herbert Ekwe-Ekwe, husband, father, brother, an amazing intellect, one of the most original thinkers of his time, who touched the lives of so many has gone home to be with the Lord. He fought the good fight of faith – in God, in his family, in Biafra and in the rights of all people to determine their own destiny.  He was a man of great integrity and honesty. It is an honour to have known and lived with Herbert. We will always cherish him. And we all shall surely see the restoration of independence and self determination of Biafra!

POINTED REMINDER: Those skirmishes in the mind of Harold Wilson’s dreadful calculations during phases I-III of the Igbo genocide, 29 May 1966-12 January 1970

(Harold Wilson: “would accept half a million dead Biafrans if that was what it took... [Britain’s on the ground co-genocidist  state Nigeria to destroy the Igbo resistance to the genocide]” )
Herbert Ekwe-Ekwe

AT THE APOGEE of phase-III of Igbo genocide, mid 1968- autumn 1969, Harold Wilson, British prime minister and chief architect of this genocide, phases I-III, 29 May 1966-12 January 1970, is totally unperturbed as he informs Clyde Ferguson, the United States state department special coordinator for relief for Biafra – in response to the very British-coordinated premeditated genocide of Igbo people who had been comprehensively besieged, starved and bombarded by land and sea and air for 38 catastrophic months by the Anglo-Nigerian genocidists – that he, Harold Wilson, “would accept a half million dead Biafrans if that was what it took” its client and co-genocidist state Nigeria to destroy the Igbo resistance to the genocide (Roger Morris, Uncertain Greatness: Henry Kissinger and American Foreign Policy, London and New York: Quartet Books, 1977, p. 122.).

Indices of Wilsonian annihilative power

JUST who is Harold Wilson who is so contumelious to go on record to call for and execute the genocide of Igbo people of Biafra, 3150 miles away in southwestcentral Africa, 23 years after the end of the perpetration of the horrendous Jewish genocide by Germany in Europe in which the latter murdered 6 million Jews, and 20 years after the declaration of the seminal 1948 UN convention on the crime of genocide (see 
UN “Convention on the Prevention of the Crime of Genocide”, [https://treaties.un.org/doc/publication/unts/volume%2078/volume-78-i-1021-english.pdf], accessed 12 October 2017)?

1. Harold Wilson is not some dictator, some leader of a loony party, a fascist party, or anything of that political brand

2. Harold Wilson is an elected politician, a politician in an advanced western representative democracy

3. Harold Wilson is leader of the British Labour party, one of Europe’s leading social democratic parties (also incorporates democratic socialists, other strands of socialists, communists, trade unionists)

4. Harold Wilson is prime minister of Britain

5. Harold Wilson is therefore not the prime minister of some “peripheral”/seemingly inconsequential country

6. Harold Wilson is prime minister of a “centre” state and power that was part of the victorious alliance that defeated a fascist global amalgam in a global war that ended in 1945 – barely 23 years earlier

7. Harold Wilson is prime minister of a “centre” state and power (sixth to occupy this exalted position since the end of  the 1939-945 war) that was one of the key countries that worked on the panel that drafted the historic 1948 UN “Convention on the Prevention of the Crime of Genocide”

8. Harold Wilson’s administration joins successive British governments in the past that have sought to “punish” the Igbo for the latter’s vanguard role during 1930s-October 1960 in the African peoples’ freedom project to liberate Nigeria, one of Britain’s “prized African occupied states” from 60 years of the British conquest; previous British governments had connived at the premeditated devastating pogroms of Igbo people organised and executed by the Fulani jihadist/islamist leadership (on the ground African strategic ally of the British occupation who Wilson would soon work with to unleash the Igbo genocide) in the north Nigeria towns of Jos (1945) and Kano (1953)

9. Harold Wilson pursues his genocide drive against the Igbo steeped in that overarching ideological rubric of the expressed “diminution-of-African life” that constitutes the engaging, subjugating template of 400 years of pan-European enslavement of the African humanity in the Americas and elsewhere, beginning in the 15th century, and Europe’s consequent occupation of the African homeland itself

10. Harold Wilson oversees the mass slaughter of the Igbo from his 10 Downing Street London official residence

11. Harold Wilson embarks on the savagery of this campaign by constructing an alliance of willing and ruthless pan-African constituent nations in Nigeria itself including, particularly, YorubaUrhobo and Edo of its west regions, Hausa, Kanuri, Jawara, Nupe, Bachama, Tiv, and Jukun of the north provinces, all loyal to and led by the Fulani, the visceral anti-African jihadists/islamists from Futa Djallon, 1000 miles away in northwestcentral Africa, who were stridently opposed to the Igbo-driven restoration of-African peoples-independence mission from the British occupation, and who had already demonstrated their expertise in Igbo mass slaughtering in the pogroms of 1945 and 1953 cited earlier

12. Harold Wilson’s decree death target of a half a million dead Biafrans” represents 4.2 per cent of the Igbo population at this time

13. Harold Wilson realises 6-9 months after his “a half a million dead Biafrans”-death decree declaration, 12 January 1970, that his co-Nigerian genocidists on the ground have instead murdered 3.1 million Igbo people – 2.6 million more or 25 per cent of the total Igbo population; definitely, the Nigerians have handsomely obliged their “massa” Harold Wilson’s death decree of Igbo people...

14. Harold Wilson is not the least surprised of this outcome, thanks to British weapons his government supplied its co-Nigerian genocidists to accomplish their exterminating project – as Wilson recalls most effusively in his memoirs, published in 1971, the Nigerian military expended more small arms ammunition in its campaign to achieve its annihilative goal in Biafra than the amount used by the British armed forces  “during the whole” of the 1939-1945 war (Harold Wilson, Labour Government, 1964-1970: A Personal Record, London: Weidenfeld & Nicolson, 1971, p. 630, added emphasis)

15. Harold Wilson’s government’s diplomatic mission military advisor in genocidist Nigeria at the time, Robert Scottacknowledges that at the height of the genocide, summer 1968-12 January 1970, their allied rampaging genocidists had turned swathes of Biafran territory into waste lands by the uncontrollable use of those British weapons that Wilson supplied so generously to them (Wilson: 630); Scott is graphically emphatic as he declares that as the genocidists unleashed their campaigns across Biafran cities, towns and villages, they are the “best defoliant agent known” (Sunday Telegraph, London, 11 January 1970)

Igbo resilient spirit

What has evidently underpinned the tenets of Harold Wilson’s very brazen role as this advocate of mass-slaughtering-of-Igbo people in the world of mid/late 1960s is his sheer confidence of a stunning “victory” in his stated goal: Harold Wilson believes fervently that given all the power at his disposal, and these are indeed immense, as we have shown, he would destroy Igbo people… There is, however, one feature in this outstretched power resource, a critical one for that matter, which Wilson is not in control of. Harold Wilson has no access to the resilient spirit of Igbo people, that forte that ensures Igbo survival of the genocide.

BY SURVIVING the genocide, the Igbo have not only repudiated the gruesome Wilsonian logic of Igbo mass slaughter most assuredly, but they are poised today, 53 years later, as the Biafra freedom movement has grown inexorably, to resume the interrupted construction of their beloved state of Biafra – the Land of the Rising Sun.

Year 53 – Igbo genocide and its comeuppance?

(For Biafra: ... Uzo EgonuExodus [1970])
Herbert Ekwe-Ekwe

BESIDES ALL the lead-countries involved in the Igbo genocide which have apparently had or still appear to have their comeuppance as a result, we demonstrate forthwith that each lead-personage and a number of others involved in perpetuating this heinous crime against humanity has had their life/life’s vital interests impacted upon quite devastatingly for their roles in the genocide and in some examples have undergone a spectacular collapse. 

We start with the so graphically dramatic case of Olusegun Obasanjo, one of the most viciously hate-ridden Igbophobists of the Igbo genocide on the ground assemblage in Nigeria, who the perceptive sociologist and criminologist Biko Agozino aptly reminds us of in his “Why Obasanjo may be heading to hell”, http://massliteracy.blogspot.com.br/2013/08/why-obasanjo-may-be-heading-to-hell.html  accessed 18 December 2014).

1. Olusegun Obasanjo (Genocidist commander, south Biafra, who ordered the shooting down of an international Red Cross DC-7 relief-carrying aircraft to the blockaded and bombarded Biafrans near Eket, south Biafra, on 5 June 1969; for an update on this fellow, see, for instance, daughter Iyabo Obasanjo’s December 2013 open letter to her father, http://www.vanguardngr.com/2013/12/iyabo-obasanjo-writes-father-says-dear-daddy-dont-nigeria/ – accessed 18 December 2013)

3. Harold Wilson (British prime minister, architect of Igbo genocide from his London offices and home, 3ooo miles away from Biafra, who embarked on the Igbo genocide with the recorded death decree target of a half “a million dead Biafrans” [see Roger Morris, Uncertain Greatness: Henry Kissinger and American Foreign Policy, London and New York: Quartet Books, 1977, p. 122], representing 4.2 per cent of the Igbo population at this time, realises 6-9 months after, 12 January 1970, that his co-Nigerian genocidists on the ground of lead-Fulani and Yoruba and Edo and Jukun and Urhobo and Bachama and Hausa and Tiv and Nupe nations have instead murdered 3.1 million Igbo people – 2.6 million more than his dreadful tally desire or 25 per cent of the total Igbo population; definitely, the Nigerians have handsomely obliged their “massa” Harold Wilson’s Igbo death commission... A much perversely delighted Harold Wilson soon after recalls in his memoirs, published in 1971, that the Nigerian military expended more small arms ammunition in its campaign to achieve this envisaged annihilative goal in Biafra than the amount used by the British armed forces  “during the whole” of the 1939-1945 war [see Harold Wilson, Labour Government, 1964-1970: A Personal Record, London: Weidenfeld & Nicolson, 1971, p. 630, added emphasis])

25. David Cameron (Former British prime minister who, with US President Obama, imposed Muhammadu Buhari, one of the vilest Nigerian genocidist operatives throughout these 50 years of the Igbo genocide, as head of Nigeria regime, March 2015 [since taking power, the Buhari regime’s military and other genocidist assets, true to type, have murdered hundreds of Igbo across occupied Biafra without any condemnation by the Cameron government]; Cameron resigned his prime minister’s position precipitously on 13 July 2016 after losing the “Brexit” referendum on British membership of the European Union)
(David Cameron: ... imposes genocidist operative Buhari as head of Nigeria regime in March 2015 ... precipitous resignation as British prime minister in July 2016 after British majority electorate votes to leave the EU in a referendum against Cameron’s own political goal of “EU-remain”)
26. Hillary Clinton (Former US secretary of state, Obama administration, January 2009-January 2013 – remained unrelentingly adamant, throughout her tenure, of not designating the islamist, northcentral/northeast-based insurgent organisation, Boko Haram, a terrorist organisation despite the latter’s murder of thousands of African peoples, overwhelmingly Igbo, during the period [it wouldn’t be until November 2013 that the US declared Boko Haram “terrorist” because Washington judged the group was “{now} develop{ing} links with other {islamists} such as al-Qaeda … to wage a global jihad”]; on 8 November 2016, contrary to overwhelming opinion poll indicators and leading pundits’ analyses and predictions, Clinton received a crushing defeat in the US presidential election by anti-establishment rival candidate Donald Trump – Clinton had run her campaign on a political platform billed largely on the continuation of the cardinal policies of the Obama presidency which includes its unflinching support for the Nigeria genocidist regime)

29. Muhammadu Buhari (Genocidist operative in the Nigeria military – right from the launch of the Igbo genocide on Sunday 29 May 1966 and during the Nigerian expansive trail of the mass slaughter of Igbo military and civilians alike in north and west Nigeria regions from 29 July 1966-5 July 1967 to encapsulate phases I-II of the genocide timeframe. During phase-III of the genocide, the invasion of Biafra, 6 July 1967-12 January 1970, Muhammadu Buhari was commander of a genocidist corps in north and northcentral Biafra, slaughtering to the hilt. Nigeria murdered 3.1 million Igbo people during these three phases of the genocide. As from 13 January 1970, beginning of phase-IV of the genocide, Buhari has adhered rigidly to or overseen the Nigeria regime’s blanket policy of non-development of occupied Biafra, the regime’s aggressive degradation of socioeconomic life in Biafra, and the regime’s exponential expropriation of the rich oil reserves of Biafra. Biafran assets looted by the occupation stand at US$1000 billion. This monstrously programmed pillaging of the wealthlands of Biafra since January 1970 by Fulani-led islamist jihadist Nigeria and their pan-African constituent nations allies particularly Yoruba, Edo, Jukun, Urhobo, Bachama, Nupe, Tiv, Jarawa, has nothing comparable in African history. Finally, since 13 January 1970, Buhari has exhibited a calculated, deafening silence over the course of the murder of additional tens of thousands of Igbo people across Nigeria but especially in his north Nigeria homeland by regime forces/allied forces including those massacred by the Boko Haram terrorist organisation, which he and other islamist jihadists in the region inaugurated as their grand fulanisation and islamisation of Nigeria. Since his imposition as Nigeria's head of regime in March 2015 by ex-US President Barack Hussein Obama and ex-British Prime Minister David Cameron, Muhammadu Buhari’s regime with his adjunct-genocidist Boko Haram and Fulani militia allies (two of the five deadliest terrorists organisations in the world presently [see Institute for Economics & Peace, “Global Terror Index 2015”,  http://economicsandpeace.org/wp-content/uploads/2015/11/Global-Terrorism-Index-2015.pdf , accessed 17 November 2015]) have murdered 3000 Igbo people in occupied Biafra. These murders have continued unabated.)
           
(Muhammadu Buhari: ... fiendish Igbo genocidist operative from the outset of the Igbo genocide, 29 May 1966 ... Imposed as head of regime in Nigeria by ex-US President Barack Hussein Obama and ex-British Prime Minister David Cameron. Muhammadu Buhari is  on course to complete his ongoing violent project of the fulanisation and islamisation of  British-client state Nigeria which serves British interests in this northwestcentral Africa in perpetuity)

28. Fulani islamist/jihadist, virulently anti-African grouping from Futa Djallon highlands, northwestcentral Africa, 1000 miles from their occupied north Nigeria, who have led this genocide for the past 53 years with their very loyal pan-African constituent allies especially Yoruba, Jukun, Edo, Hausa, Urhobo,BachamaNupe, Kanuri, have expansively murdered and murdered and murdered Igbo most monstrously that there appears, apparently, no remaining new regions of savagery to explore to deploy in this march. Or are there?

Be marooned in this quagmire or seek freedom by abandoning 53 years of Igbo genocide


(Nigeria: mephistophelian quagmire)
EACH AND EVERYONE of these latter African peoples or nations must now know that it is trapped in the mephistophelian quagmire of British-created hotchpotch Nigeria precisely for committing this heinous crime of genocide against Igbo people, for murdering 3.1 million Igbo people in a frenzy during 44 months, Sunday 29 May 1966-12 January 1970, phases I-III, and then extending this odyssey of death by murdering tens of thousands of additional Igbo between 13 January 1970 and the present day. Each is assured that it will remain in there hopelessly indefinitely unless it, itself, abandons its half a century preoccupation to contribute its quota to wish to destroy one of Africas most talented, innovative and hardworking peoples. Each of these peoples must know that it has failed woefully to effectuate this goal of destroying Igbo people. No one can and will destroy the Igbo. The Igbo will ever remain triumphant. Unmistakably. There is no meaningful progress for YorubaJukunEdoHausaUrhoboBachamaNupe, except each, individually, as a people abandons its current genocidal march on Igbo people. Anyone of them ready to accept this move forward should contact, at once, the representatives of the Biafra freedom movement and discuss the terms of such a turning point of intent. These must include full reparations on the millions of the Igbo they have murdered in half a century, the billions of US dollars worth of legendary Igbo wealth they have plundered and transferred to their homelands,  and the breathtaking vandalism of the dismantling of Igbo socioeconomics. Now is the time for this dash to alternative path to redemptive justice.

IF EVER there were any doubts, the evidence from the history of the Igbo genocide, so far, demonstrates the contrary, so clearly as illustrated above with regards to the range of fates of states and individuals involved in the genocide, as particularly the references show on Sekou Toures reprehensible execution of raving anti-Igboist Diallo Telli, the collapse of the Soviet Union, occuring within a decade of the death of Leonid Brezhnev, the unravelling of the state of Britain, the architect of the genocide, contemporaneously as the world has not known it in the past 300 years, underpinned by the staggeringly indescribable humiliation that this country has been subjected by key states and officials in the European Union over the former’s quest to leave the EU following a successful referendum,  and Barack Hussein Obama’s appalling presidential legacy – namely, that no one, no agency, murders 3.1 million Igbo children, women and men  and additional tens of thousands of Igbo in this foundational genocide of post-(European)conquest Africa and walks away free... None whatsoever...

Biafra restoration of Igbo independence

AS THE WORLD watches intensely, the now 50 million Igbo survivors of the genocide are individually and collectively involved in the current historic campaign for the restoration of their independence and justice...  And Biafra will achieve this freedom and justice.

Would British conquest and occupation administrator Hugh Clifford repeat these 29 December 1920 comments on Nigeria today, 99 years on, Thursday 10 October 2019, “Nigeria is a collection of independent states”?


Herbert Ekwe-Ekwe

ON 29 DECEMBER 1920, Hugh Clifford, the British conquest and occupation administrator in Nigeria, makes the following contribution to a “Legislative Council Debate”, Lagos:
[Nigeria is a] collection of Independent … States, separated from one another by great distances, by differences of history and traditions and by … racial … political, social and religious barrier. (1)
(Hugh Clifford)
TODAY,  Thursday 10 October 2019, 99 years on, would Hugh Clifford conceivably make these same assertions? If so, why? If not, why not?

Freedom for each and every African people from the genocidist state in Africa


Herbert Ekwe-Ekwe

IGBO and all other African peoples or nations who have lived through the terror of the post-(European)conquest state must abandon it at once to survive and advance towards the construction of higher levels of civilisation. They have no other choice.  Each is a nation; they should proclaim their sovereignty today. Irrepressible Biafra spearheads this African World freedom movement contemporaneously.

Each and every constituent African people or nation, whatever their population size or wherever geography in Africa they are emplaced, can and should build this civilisation outside the existing genocide state of enthralled and degenerative union exemplified, most catastrophically in Africa by particularly three “states”: Nigeria, the Sudan, the Congo-Kinshasa (“DRC”).

Let Africa’s constituent peoples or nations unleash a dazzling contest of creativity and progress, a continuing mutual bombardment and sharing of ideas and streams of possibilities, akin to what the world has seen elsewhere in the South World in the past 40 years – not the prevailing mass murdering campaign, mass murdering campaign, mass murdering campaign, pillaging, pillaging, pillaging, nihilism, nihilism, nihilism, being pursued with such a sheer savagery by the anti-African peoples’ north Nigeria-based Fulani islamist/jihadists and their loyal Nigerian allies in Biafra…

MOST SURELY, now is the time for each and every African people in Africa to embark on this new beginning of freedom and reconstruction from a plundered history.
