Since my departure events have moved with such breathless speed that friends and foe alike have been left not only bewildered but confused. It is therefore necessary for me to address these words to the international press in order to keep the records right, and in pursuit of the object of my leaving the Republic of Biafra. It is necessary in order to understand events that have led to the drama of the past few days to look back at the origin of our conflict and conduct in this war. Biafra, once the eastern region of Nigeria,

This is because it is considered the headquarters of Politics, Military Formations, and the Centre of Learning in Nigeria. Generally, it has been established that Kaduna is a term derived from the Hausa term ‘Kadduna’ to mean crocodiles.

However, writing of Smith suggests that it may have been peopled even much earlier, thus making it belong to the area that experienced further influx as a result of tectonic changes experienced during one of the earliest changes in climatic conditions.
