Re: USA Africa Dialogue Series - A Letter to the Emir of Kano

Prof:

Why is this letter targeted only against the Igbo and Biafra?

We must use all our influence to tell the Coalition of Northern Groups that peace must be pursued at all cost, and that such an anti-Igbo statement may lead to street violence. Street violence—in organized and disorganized mobs—will lead to the death of millions of innocent lives. We saw this in Rwanda where cutlasses were used to kill thousands of innocent people.
