This article reports on the desperate situation the young Biafran nation finds itself, in terms of military might and manpower and the starvation faced by its populace. It also talks about goings on at the 1st Peace Conference of the War in Kampala, Uganda, chaired by President Milton Obote. The Nigerian delegation insist on renunciation of seccession and are willing to compromise on other issues and are also wary of a cease fire, saying it gives the Biafrans some breathing space to re-group militarily while the Biafrans want any guarrantees of their own security according their head of delegation Sir louis Mbanefo (chief justice).
For those who constantly say that France supported Biafra, this article refutes such by saying that President Charles De Gaulle of France played both sides and sold weapons to both sides, but of course France did show more inclination to Biafra but still maintained its £200 million oil assets in Nigeria during the war.
