The Nigerian state murdered 3.1
million Igbo, a quarter of this nation’s population, during the genocide of 29
May 1966 and 12 January 1970. This genocide is still ongoing (phase-III). Since
the September 2012 publication of Chinua Achebe’s There was a Country,
the world has witnessed the staggering depravity that underscores the ways and
means a stretch of Nigerian intellectuals (especially journalists and writers –
even a “poet”! –, etc., etc.) in Nigeria and abroad continues to “defend” the
genocide. Everyone must know that there is no statute of limitations in the
prosecution of the crime of genocide in international law.
