You need to learn how to work a crowd, m9. Mention that Rhodesia and South Africa supported them, that'll bring the Rhodieboos streaming in.

Christian african minority with ressources on their lands get oppressed by poor muslim hordes and decide enough is enough and fight for independence.

It's just unheard of for the most part. I can make a PR Nationalista Insurgency thread and people would scratch their heads saying "literally who?". Now we wait and see for people to shitpost the thread to death because they get assmad over colonies and regions that refused to back down against their rulers.

So many wars are fought in Africa, so few are as justified as Biafra.

Now look at Nigeria, they fight the same enemy Ojukwu sought to keep out.

>In 6 July 1967, Gowon declared war and attacked Biafra. For 30 months, the war raged on. Now General Odumegwu-Ojukwu knew that the odds against the new republic were overwhelming. Most European states recognised the illegitimacy of the Nigerian military rule and banned all future supplies of arms, but the UK government substantially increased its supplies, even sending British Army and Royal Air Force advisors

>Disgusted at the suffering the Nigerian government inflicted on the Biafrans and the continuous harassment of international relief flights by the Nigerian Air Force, he hatched a plan in collaboration with the French secret service to strike back at Nigerian air power. He imported five small civilian single engine Malmö MFI-9 planes produced by SAAB, which he knew could also be used for a ground attack role in warfare. He had the planes painted in camouflage colours and fitted with rockets from Matra, and proceeded with a crew of two Swedes and two Biafrans to form a squadron called 'Biafra Babies' to strike the air fields from which the federal Nigerian Air Force launched their attacks against the civilian population in Biafra. On May 22, 1969, and over the next few days, von Rosen and his five aircraft launched attacks against Nigerian air fields at Port Harcourt, Enugu, Benin and other small airports. The Nigerians were taken by surprise and a number of expensive jets, including a few MiG-17 fighters and three out of Nigeria's six Ilyushin Il-28 bombers, were destroyed on the ground

There was a benefit concert held for Biafra in NYC and John Lennon gave up his knighthood in protest, as the British were the primary supporters of Nigeria but by then, the Biafrans were pretty much screwed.

Eternal Anglo...

During the airlift there was a dc-3 (i think) manned by South African mercenaries that circled the biafran airfields at night randomly dropping bombs while taunting the Biafrans on the radio.

High level IRL trolling.

Is there any good literature on this war? I did read about some of it in passing in another book on African mercs, but there were only a few pages dedicated to it. Mainly about guys trying to fly in food/ammo/supplies to the Biafrans while trying to dodge Nigerian AA.
