To Whom it May Concern

The United Nations, European Union, United States of America and Other World Governing Bodies

We write to inform you of an urgent need to rise up against the continued systematic annihilation of the people from the Old Eastern part of Nigeria, a people who are identified as Biafrans. It is obvious that if immediate steps are not taken by your office to address the plight of these people, they risk being exterminated.

We bring to your notice the recent onslaught planned against Biafrans by the Federal Government of Nigeria. An attack which left more than 74 IPOB  (Indigenous People of Biafra) members dead, several others critically injured whereas many were whisked away including those shot dead.

This attack came as a military exercise code-named Operation Python Dance II (Egwu Eke II) and carried out in the Eastern part of the country, a Biafran territory considered to be relatively peaceful

The First Invasion Attempt

Ten trailers conveying armored tanks and military hardware with heavily armed soldiers were on the 8th of September, 2017 seen entering the South East and three days after, they tried invading the home residence of Nnamdi Kanu, the leader of IPOB, an attempt which left two IPOB members dead as the invading soldiers were restricted access to the residential house of the IPOB leader hence they could not but shoot two persons dead.

Although, the invading soldiers claimed that IPOB members flooding the area threw stones at them which led them to react with a Python Dance but eyewitnesses said that the invading soldiers had shot the two victims dead before people started throwing stones at them.

As though that was a tip of the iceberg, on the 12th of September, 2017, the soldiers deployed for the "Operation Python Dance II" mounted roadblocks at different locations in the southeast, waiting to attack IPOB members who would be heading to Umuahia, the home country of their leader.

On that fateful day, some IPOB members heading to Umuahia from Aba, both in Abia state, were intercepted and attacked at Aro-Ngwa junction.

According to an eyewitness, Chinedu Isaac, who escaped the onslaught, the soldiers on the Python Dance, with the aid of armoured vehicles, chased fleeing Biafrans into the bush, shooting them and confirming them dead before throwing them into their vans.

He said that some Biafrans jumped into a river in the area and the soldiers chased and shot them dead, leading to many of them dying out of gunshots while others drowned.

By his estimate, he said that about 50 IPOB members died that day, but as for him, he only escaped by God's grace, sustaining some injury.

The soldiers on the Python Dance in another location brutalized another group of Biafrans whipping them mercilessly.

Some of them were equally forced to lay face-down on the muddy water along the road, which led to the death of the victims with their stomachs swollen.

About 20 victims' bodies were found in the bush after the onslaught.

Invasion of Nnamdi Kanu's House

On the 14th September, 2017, another onslaught took place, but this time, it was in the palace of Eze Israel Kanu, who is the King of Afara-Ukwu Ibeku in Umuahia as well as the father of Nnamdi Kanu.

In that attack, the invading soldiers on the Python Dance shot their way into the compound of the king. They killed many people and took their bodies away. They destroyed lives and property, including cars parked at the residence and Kanu's dog in the compound.

They whisked Nnamdi Kanu, his parents and many principal officers of IPOB away and since then, no one knows their whereabouts. The number whisked away is estimated to be 30 people whereas about 22 persons were confirmed dead on that day.

As at this day of writing this letter, 3rd October 2017, the home of Nnamdi Kanu is deserted.
