Monday 26 June,1967 was my graduation day at the Francis international university in Onitsha. It was awesome day because I was focusing on moving to manage my father business empires. The ceremony was jam-pack because my school have the most population in the state.
The party was going smoothly until I heard a sound of gunshots, which encompass the whole atmosphere.I was confused on which road to take home but it was too late the armies kill all able bodies men and women I was left alone because I disguise as a dead man .The children cry over their love ones, horrible sight of dead people shot by army make me frightened. When I get home it was too late I found my families lying in the pool of blood. I decided to face my back against the world for been unkind and cruel to me.
Chapter 2. Later, I had a call from my father's secretary that's business empires was burn to ashes.my hope was lost. on my mood of ruminating on what next to do, The army general of Onitsha storms my home and took me to the Barrack and declare that have joined the army and I need to defend BIAFRA. With boldness and agility I was enlisted to be the most toughest soldier among the others.

Chapter 3

One week and 2 days and ended January 15,1970. Due to the exile of the major and the surrender of his second in command.many lives and property were lost including loves one .The Civil war added more salt to our wound.when I reflect about THE ACCOUNT OF BIAFRA it left a memory never to be forgotten.
