Genocide is 'the deliberate killing of a large group of people, especially those of a particular ethnic group or nation.'
as explained by dictionary. This means that any unlawful killing of individuals or group either ethnic or nation is taken to genocide.
Nigeria is a country in West Africa. This country has three major ethnic tribes namely Yoruba, Hausa-fulani and Ibos. The Yorubas occupy the west, the Hausa-fulani occupy the north while the Ibos occupy mainly the east of the country. The ruling ethnic group is the Hausa-fulani while the Ibos are highly marginalized. Ibos and other minor ethnic groups are called Biafra. It is from this Biafra that all the major resources of the nation come from. These resources are mainly enjoyed by the Hausa-fulani Islamic group who are at the helm of affairs. There had been civil war between Nigeria and Biafra which broke out in 1967. The war lasted for 3yrs. But with help of Egypt , Russia ,USA and others, Nigeria was able to "win " Biafra. The marginalization continued since that time till 2015 when a voice from Biafra said it was enough. The voice was in person of Nnamdi Kanu. He did not start in 2015 but that was when Nigerian government arrested him for asking for self determination of his people (Biafra).
Right from that time till now, Biafrans are being killed. This is not good to speak long sentences but to look at the picture and video of the recent activities of genocidal and murderous government of Nigeria led by Muhammadu Buhari
This is where the Nigerian government in army uniform are getting hold of harmless civilians to carry out a genocide act
One of the army man called Ibrahim Dambo that went for the operation shared a post describing what he went to the South East of Nigeria to do. Read for yourself.
The video showed what the Nigerian army did
The pictures of other killings can be seen
Suppression of political movements isn't genocide. The army is targeting those who are revolting not the general public. Nobody will take your views seriously if you keep on exaggerating.
A lot of dirty things appear to be going on there but making biased statements with pictures of dead men won't bring in more support for your cause.
Sakibarifin,
What is exaggeration? Did you read the post of one of the army men which is right there on the post. Does the statement of that post tell you that it is the suppression of political movement. What can kind of political suppression that will make army to leave their work to interfere in civic issues where there is freedom of speech. And in such situation, start to kill unarmed civilians to drink mud water as you can see in the video which lead to the death of the same youths mentioned in the army's post. All those killed and packed in the truck and other killings are the best way of suppressing political movement? All the killing directed only to South east as stated by that army man who has prior knowledge of the operation he went for. In a democratically setting, there is no amount of suppressing political movement that allows such killing as you have seen in different pictures and video. Are we all lovers of justice, Sakibarifin?
