Umu Biafra
About
The narrative surrounding the war often neglects the regular people whose lives were uprooted and relegated to collateral damage. Umu Biafra seeks to immortalize their stories so that we may never forget the kinsmen who endured and survived a genocidal campaign.
In sharing stories from the mouths of those who lived through it, we hope to confront the gruesome truth of what really happened while also educating people.
