Children of Biafra

The Children of Biafra refers to the young people who were impacted by the Nigerian Civil War (1967-1970), also known as the Biafran War. This conflict arose from ethnic, economic, and political tensions, primarily between the Igbo people in Biafra and the Nigerian government. During the war, many children faced extreme hardship, including famine and violence. The Children of Biafra symbolize the suffering endured by innocent lives caught in conflict, and they serve as a reminder of the war's tragic legacy and the importance of protecting children in similar crises today.
