These are Biafran soldiers in 1969 at Onitsha, Biafraland.
Both men are still alive and well.
Biafran soldiers killed over 15,000 Nigeria soldiers who attempted to cross the River Niger into Onitsha (under Murtala Mohammed).
Murtala's men tried to cross the River Niger into Onitsha three times.
On the three occasions, they failed.
On each attempt, Nigeria lost about 5000 soldiers.
Nigeria had to beg Britain, USSR, Egypt, Cameroon, Niger Republic and 45 other countries to come and help them fight small Biafra.
Nigeria lost much more number of soldiers than the Biafran side.
What ended the war was the starvation of millions of innocent Igbo children by Awolowo.
The war ended as no victor and no vanquished.
