In Iraq, thousands of people lost their lives because of an insurrection against the government during the reign of former Iraqi leader, Saddam Hussein.

He began his moves in Western Nigeria by sparking the Western Crisis in 1962. The political resistance to this effort led to the trial and imprisonment of the Yoruba leader, Chief Obafemi Awolowo (a.k.a. Awo)18; and the flight abroad of his political lieutenant, Anthony Enahoro, as a “fugitive offender”. The resistance then took the form of the ag-ncnc-umbc alliance, named the United Progressive Grand Alliance (upga), that unsuccessfully contested the rigged December 1964 Federal elections against the Caliphate-led Nigerian National Alliance (nna), and then the October 1965 Western regional elections where the upga’s Action Group (ug) vied with the Caliphate-backed Nigerian National Democratic Party (nndp) of Samuel L. Akintola, the then Western regional premier. When that election was rigged by the Caliphate’s “Federal might”, and Akintola was declared the winner and sworn in for another term as Premier, it sparked the violent civil unrest called Operation wetie, which triggered the January 15, 1966 coup that swept the Caliphate politicians from power at the federal level and in their Northern Region bastion. 14 http://www.hrw.org/reports/1993/03/ 01/military-injustice-major-generalzamani-lekwot-and-others-facegovernment-sanctio (Accessed Jan, 2013) & http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atyap_people (Accessed Jan, 2013) 15 http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/ 2009/jun/08/nigeria-usa (Accessed Jan, 2013) 16 http://www.pambazuka.org/en/category/ comment/34801 (Accessed Jan, 2013) & http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Odi_massacre (Accessed Jan, 2013) 17 http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/programmes/ from_our_own_correspondent/1634356. stm (Accessed Jan, 2013) 18 http://www.dawodu.com/awolowo6.htm BLACK RENAISSANCE NOIRE c] In 2009, the Caliphate’s genocidal mentality was publicly displayed in the following statement to the House of Representatives by a Caliphate legislator: unexamined “One Nigeria”, and allowing their peoples to be used serially against one another for the benefit of the Caliphate. 179 In other words, in the Caliphate’s feudal version of Nigeria the peoples have been divided into castes, or hereditary occupational classes: Hausa rulers, Yoruba diplomatic messengers and Igbo traders and technicians.
