Biafra: A chronic state of the mind (Recount of Personal War Experience)

Biafra rises up like a Phoenix!
It was a Sunday or about that, on May 30th,1970, in Afor Ukwu , Ishiekeneshi, Orlu, providence of Biafra I saw the Biafran war came to an end. 
It came amidst a crowd of hopeful believers in God, worshiping and begging God to save us from the rashes and arms of Benjamin Adekunle, a Yoruba Nigerian monster soldier, during the civil war rumored to be swimming his way into my home town, via Urashi river. We thought he would drown the few skeletons still struggling to breath that were in the church hoping God would perform his last act of justice- kill Gowon. Kill Awolowo. Kill Obasanjo. Kill Murtala Mohamed and make Benjamin Adekunle our next dinner and let our new nation, Biafra, be.
