ABSTRACT
The Nigerian Civil War was a protracted conflict that occurred in Nigeria from 1967 to 1970. It began when the secessionist state of Biafra, led by Colonel Chukwuemeka Odumegwu Ojukwu, declared independence from Nigeria, leading to a violent struggle for secession. The war had its roots in ethnic and political tensions with the Igbo people of southeastern Nigeria seeking autonomy. This conflict was characterized by intense fighting and humanitarian crises, with widespread famine and suffering among the civilian population. The Nigerian government, under the leadership of General Yakubu Gowon, pursued a "no victor, no vanquished" policy, but the war left deep scars in the nation's history.
