Following the remembrance of the Biafran Fallen Heroes and heroines, Charles Oputa aka CharlyBoy (AreaFada) has reminisced how the Nigerian/Biafran Civil war affected his life.
AreaFada as fondly called said he was 18yrs old then when the war which killed about 3 million Igbo people of Eastern parts of the country broke out.
According to him, the war scandalized his youthful age and shook his faith in believing in one Nigeria.
“Today marks a very sad day for Igbo’s all over. Today we remember the genocide and the atrocities of the Biafran civil war and the 3million of our brothers, sister and children who lost their lives. I was 18yrs during the war, it scandalized my youth,shook my faith in “1 Nigeria”, CharlyBoy wrote on twitter.
