With the recent announcement by the British government, masquerading as government of Nigeria, regarding the adjustment of the boundary of the so-called South-East, as a further fragmentation and gerrymandering of #Biafra_Land (the so-called South-East and South-South), that would result in the excision of #OHAJI_EGBEMA from the South-East into South-South, one can't help, but recall the endless boundary adjustments by Britain against #Biafra_Land and Biafrans, in the last three hundred years.
Be reminded, or should I say, be informed, as there is a high tendency of not knowing, that the two world wars were fought by Europe, as a result of the bitter contest or rivalry for the control of the "enormous African resources". With this information at the back of one’s mind, one will be in a position to grasp much of this treatise.
The fact that the contest for the absolute control of the enormous African resources was the major contention that brewed and triggered the two previous World Wars, enables anyone to situate and comprehend the reasons for the incessant, endless, arbitrary, and consistent "adjustment of boundaries", particularly in Biafra land.
This awkward mindset of Britain against #Biafrans is equally predicated on the vengeful disposition of Britain towards Biafrans, based on British encounter with Biafrans during the pre-colonial, colonial, and post-colonial days.
The fierce and endless wars that Britain fought with Biafrans, in which Biafrans handed them humiliating defeats, made the British vow (swear) to continuously exercise their vengeance upon Biafrans (Igbos), eternally (perpetually). No wonder Britain has been exerting this vengeance upon Biafrans in very diverse, brutal, and callous ways, including direct and indirect human, economic, cultural, and political #GENOCIDE against #Biafrans.
It is in furtherance of this exertion, or extraction of pound of flesh from Biafrans, that Britain has been cutting Biafra land into pieces. Some of the reasons for such fragmentation include: First, to destroy the synergy emanating from the force of the unity of Biafrans, as integral part of one another, thereby ensuring diverse and divergent views on issues of critical importance.
Secondly, the humongous size of the geographical area called Biafra land was as intimidating as it was beyond comprehension, to the point that Britain could not easily articulate the coordination initially. In view of the above, Britain began the conspiracy theory (hypothesis) that Biafra land has to be reduced in size, and with the reduction will come the reduction of the influence and synergy of the Igbo, which led to the fallacious propagation of "Igbo being a dot in the circle". (Remember that at the initial stage of encountering Igbos, Britain not only acknowledged that the Igbo Nation was not just a Great nation, but the LARGEST in population and size in Africa).
Equally, the enormous natural resources found in the land of Biafra became so irresistible to Britain that they began to create internal hostilities amongst kinsmen, so as to enable them to penetrate and entrench permanent enmity.
The aggregation of all the above can be seen from one prism, and that prism is the agelong British demonic strategy called DIVIDE AND RULE. For centuries, Britain has been applying this devilish strategy all over the world, and in various continents. Unfortunately, any new set of victims will not be aware of the plague, or the calamity that has befallen them, until they find themselves completely overwhelmed.
