Post Brexit UK must apologise for Biafran War.

Petition Details

When the state of Biafra tried to secede from Nigeria in 1967 to prevent the genocide of it's people, the UK supplied arms to the Nigerian Army which caused deaths of millions of innocent Biafrans, mostly through starvation. Biafrans have the same right as Britons to decide their own future.

Additional Information

In 1967, the leaders of Nigeria agreed to partition their own country into states that would reflect the ethnic origins of it's own people. However, UK, the former colonial ruler demanded that Nigeria must remain as one country. This cruel policy led directly to the blockading of Biafra and cause the deaths of millions of innocent people.
