COLD WAR 1 945- 1 9 0 1
When the world held its breath...
ONE OF THE GREAT TRAGEDIES OF AFRICA is not only the fact that a million
people - mostly civilians and a large proportion of them children - died in one of
Africa’s first post-independence wars, but that until it happened the world thought
Nigeria was immune from the wasting disease of tribalism. It certainly was not
because the Biafran War is still the most expansive tribal conflagration that the
continent has experienced - barring perhaps the ongoing Great Lakes conflict -
involving the forces of East and West, only this time, with the British siding with
the Soviets.
Worse, some of the religious differences that emerged before and after that
dreadful carnage are still with us today. During the course of hostilities that lasted
almost four years, a lot of other shortcomings surfaced in Africa’s most populous
nation, including the kind of corruption that, until then, had always been linked to
countries rich in oil. Disunity, incompetence and instability - from which Nigeria
never really recovered - also emerged. Two bloody army coups followed after the
rebels capitulated, together with an appalling series of massacres, mostly of southern
Christians by Muslim northerners. Half a century later the slaughter continues.
