"THE 6 KEY QUESTIONS THAT CHINUA ACHEBE'S LAST BOOK RAISED ON THE BIAFRAN WAR IN NIGERIA"

The biggest threat in the Chinua Achebe's newest book on the Biafran war to the so called Nigeria's questionable unity today in 2012 is the fact that Chinua Achebe asked the boldest and the toughest questions about this Biafra war at the international level, such as:(i) Was the Biafran war not an act of genocide against the Igbos from all ramifications? (ii) Were Yakubu Gowon and Obafemi Awolowo 

not guilty of genocide against the Igbos in the ways and in the manners that they used to prosecute this brutal war through the use of economic blockage and food starvation that led to the physical deaths of about 2-3 million of those defenseless Igbos children, women and the non-combatant men? 

(iii) Has Nigeria as a nation ever truly learned any vital lessons from this brutal past? (iv) Are the present events in Nigeria today not very similar to those events of the 1960s that gave birth to the Biafran war? (v) Why is the Biafran war and its most important lessons kept away from the public or from the young Nigerians today and they are never taught in any of our public educational systems? (vi) Why did all the successive governments in Nigeria have all attempted to date to suppress the whole truth or the important information about this terrible war?
