Biafra and the discourse on the Igbo Genocide / Korieh, Chima J   Journal Article
Korieh, Chima J Journal Article

Publication 2013.
Summary/Abstract There has been a reluctance or indifference to a systematic study and documentation of the Igbo Genocide in Nigeria. In the main, the reason has been due to official and non-official attempts to subvert a focus on an event in which more than one million Igbo were slaughtered through a process that was fomented, orchestrated, executed, and supervised by the Nigerian state.

Paradox of international criminal justice: the Biafra genocide / Njoku, Carol Ijeoma   Journal Article
Njoku, Carol Ijeoma Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Publication 2013.
Summary/Abstract Although early exploits of the international criminal tribunals seem promising, a unique empirical evaluation of its impact in global applications of criminal justice proves defective. A well-intentioned pursuit of criminal justice will ensure consistency and stability in the enforcement of the international humanitarian laws and principles to prevent impunity in situations of war or armed conflict. This study makes a trans-national evaluation of effectiveness of the criminal justice system with particular reference to issues that derive from the Nigeria-Biafra (Biafra) war. The framework of analyses is based on genocidal issues and incidences of war crimes highlighted in Chinua Achebe's There was a Country: A Personal History of Biafra and related literature on the Biafra war.
