Here’s one quote from Emeka Ojukwu
Emeka Ojukwu (1933 - 2011) was the only president of the short lived Republic of Biafra.
“The
Biafran struggle is, on another plane, a resistance to the Arab-Muslim
expansionism which has menaced and ravaged the African continent for twelve
centuries. As early as the first quarter of the seventh century, the Arabs, a
people from the Near-East, evolved Islam not just as a religion but as a cover
for their insatiable territorial ambitions. By the tenth century they had
overrun and occupied, among other places, Egypt and North Africa. Had they
stopped there, we would not today be faced with the wicked and unholy collusion
we are fighting against. On the contrary, they cast their hungry and envious
eyes across the Sahara on to the land of the Negroes.
“Our Biafran ancestors remained immune from the
Islamic contagion. From the middle years of the last century Christianity was
established in our land. In this way we came to be a predominantly Christian
people. We came to stand out as a non-Muslim island in a raging Islamic sea. “Throughout
the period of the ill-fated Nigerian experiment, the Muslims hoped to
infiltrate Biafra by peaceful means and quiet propaganda, but failed. Then the
late Ahmadu Bello, the Sarduana of Sokoto tried, by political and economic
blackmail and terrorism, to convert Biafrans settled in Northern Nigeria to
Islam. His hope was that these Biafrans on dispersion would then carry Islam to
Biafra, and by so doing give the religion political control of the area. The
crises which agitated the so-called independent Nigeria from 1962 gave these
aggressive proselytisers the chance to try converting us by force.
“It is now
evident why the fanatic Arab-Muslim states like Algeria, Egypt and the Sudan
have come out openly and massively to support and aid Nigeria in her present
war of genocide against us. These states see militant Arabism as a powerful
instrument for attaining power in the world.
“Biafra is one of the few African states untainted
by Islam. Therefore, to militant Arabism, Biafra is a stumbling block to their
plan for controlling the whole continent. This control is fast becoming
manifest in the Organisation of African Unity. On the question of the Middle
East, the Sudanese crisis, in the war between Nigeria and Biafra, militant
Arabism has succeeded in imposing its point of view through blackmail and
bluster. It has threatened African leaders and governments with inciting their
Muslim minorities to rebellion if the governments adopted an independent line
on these questions. In this way an O.A.U that has not felt itself able to
discuss the genocide in the Sudan and Biafra, an O.A.U. that has again and
again advertised its ineptitude as a peace-maker, has rushed into open
condemnation of Israel over the Middle East dispute. Indeed in recent times, by
its performance, the O.A.U. might well be an Organisation of Arab Unity.[51]”
