#Nigeria tells us that today is #ArmedForcesRemembrance Day, a day set aside for our “heroes” in uniform.
We'll do well to remember the lives that have been lost to various atrocities in this blood-stained country of ours...

Video: A brief history of mass atrocities in Nigeria https://t.co/83iQ71cegm
— SBM Intelligence (@sbmintelligence) January 14, 2021
The number of people who have been killed in mass atrocities in the country since “independence” perhaps gets close to the 100,000 mark.
Imagine that!
An average of 1640 each year.
Indeed, #Nigeria is a very violent place.
The real tragedy is that we don’t even bother to remember these human beings. We simply just “move on”.
That can’t be right.
I will list some of these atrocities below.
The details are in the article I linked at the start of this thread.
The anti-Igbo pogroms in Northern Nigeria of July 1966 where up to 10,000 people were killed in revenge for the coup of January 1966.
More than 380 were killed according to villagers, but govt claimed that “only 25 had died” in a depressingly familiar pattern of downplaying human life.
More than 5,000 people were killed in different incidents by @PoliceNG and @HqNigerianArmy over the course of four years starting in 1980.
The Odi Massacre of 20/11/1999. V.Malu justified killing of up to 2,500 people in retaliation for the killing of 12 policemen days earlier.
It is important to note that @HqNigerianArmy COS, Luka Yusuf, apologised for the Zaki Biam massacre in 2007, and President Umaru Yar’Adua also visited Benue to apologise.
#Nigeria is still reaping the consequences of the extrajudicial killings of #BokoHaram members in Bauchi, Maiduguri, Potiskum and Wudil in July 2009.
Some sources say that 185 people were killed after the commander in charge accused the villagers of shielding #BokoHaram members.
In typical fashion, @HqNigrianArmy said that “only 37 people” were killed.
The @HqNigerianArmy officer responsible ordered his troops to clear the road of all “miscreants”.
Three military trucks were used to cart away heaps of corpses afterwards.
A commission of inquiry by @contactkdsg found that 348 Shiites were killed, although @imnigeria_org says 1,061 people were killed.
@nytimes found otherwise in this video: https://t.co/VwrHyGqfsO. No one has been held to account.
Just three months ago.
Do I need to dwell on this?
We watched it live, and it was in Nigeria’s richest commercial district. #EndSARS
