It has become imperative that we keep alerting the world about the sudden disappearance of the Igbos in the current geographical enclave called Nigeria, and we rightfully request that it be given the deserving attention. Nigeria Government’s Suppression, Disappearing, and Summary Execution Of Igbo Youths Is A Discussion Long Overdue Despite the fact that the Igbos are Biafrans rather than Nigerians, it should not be considered a crime for them to have found themselves in Nigeria. This is due to the fact that it was not their fault but rather that of the British Supremacists, who unjustly merged various standing nations into the country that they now refer to as Nigeria without the proper consent of the people.
We are submitting a single request to the African Union, European Parliament, Amnesty International (whose European Office is not in Nigeria), international organizations that promote human rights, and governments from around the world. Just one request, and I believe it will greatly contribute to putting an end to the long-running conflict between Nigeria and Biafra. During the Nigerian genocidal war against Biafra from 1967 to 1970, the Nigerian government used this as an opportunity to slaughter millions of Biafrans and has continued to do so ever since.
THE QUESTION: Please send neutral media personnel and your delegates to Nigeria.
Allow them to visit all of Nigeria’s prisons, meet the inmates, and conduct interviews with them, asking about their tribes, offenses, and arrest dates. In Nigeria’s prisons today, the majority of inmates are Igbo, typically between the ages of 15 and 55. Even the security forces are aware that 98% of them are not guilty of any offenses. They have not committed any wrongdoing to justify their unlawful detention and arrest. They were only arrested because they are Igbos who want a referendum on the Biafra nation. They did not steal, kill, break any laws, or commit any crimes that are known to the law. What is a violent approach to freedom if a peaceful referendum call is considered a crime in Nigeria?
Some of these prisoners have been held in jail for at least five years, while others have been there for four, three, two, or one year. In addition, some people who were only recently arrested have spent months in detention without any hope of ever being tried in court, much less being released. They didn’t break any laws or commit any crimes, so why would they even consider going to court? What would the security personnel who detained them describe as their offenses to the court? utterly nothing. As a result, they have decided to hold them without trial, which is unfair. Even those individuals whom the security forces have attempted to take to court and who have been found guilty of one or more crimes are still being held in solitary confinement, while others to whom judgments have been rendered in their favor are still being held in solitary confinement due to pressure from their families.
The worst part is that the Nigerian army and the Department of State Security (DSS) typically go to Igboland, arrest young Igbo people who are innocent, and then transport them to the far north, far away from their plight. Except for the transfer of 47 Boko Haram inmates from the north to Ekwuluobia, Anambra State, by president Muhammadu Buhari on June 29, 2015, which was intended to allow the terrorists to become familiar with the area, no Hausa or Yoruba individuals have ever been arrested and transported to Igboland for detention and trial. Even so, it was later claimed that they were relocated back to the North following a public outcry from the Igbos. The Igbo have always been transported to the north for various forms of cruel torture and the possibility of execution. In a nation that pledged to uphold justice and fairness and to safeguard human life, why would this occur?
The evidence that Igbos were arrested and then vanished by Nigerian security forces suggests that the government may use victims’ body parts for organ trafficking; They are secretly butchered and their organs harvested for ritualistic purposes or signed deals to export to buyers outside of Nigeria. Those detained for years without their relatives’ knowledge are detained. Many Igbo people have been detained, taken to places only God knows about, killed right away, and their organs taken. Our findings demonstrated that, after conducting extensive searches and inquiries, some relatives and loved ones whose loved ones had been detained by the Nigerian DSS and the military could no longer locate them anywhere in Nigeria.
The international community would appreciate it if the Nigerian government would explain why these individuals were arrested in Nigeria but have not been located. Where are they now?
The Igbo people in Nigeria have been suppressed and marginalized by the government, and the Nigerian media are helping them by reporting on their atrocities in exchange for money. all of Nigeria’s politicians and non-governmental organizations; Human Rights Watch, Amnesty International, and others are aware that Nigerian security forces frequently kidnap Igbo youths but have chosen to remain silent.
Igbos are pleading for assistance from the international community, and the entire world should press Nigeria’s government to free IPOB leader Nnamdi Kanu, who is being held illegally and unjustly in violation of all court orders. Release Idara Gold and all other Biafrans detained throughout Nigeria and hold a referendum for Biafrans to decide their future in Nigeria’s unholy union.
