Extractions: History Ivory Coast Table of Contents In the early precolonial period, the dense forests covering the southern half of the area that became Côte d'Ivoire created barriers to large-scale sociopolitical organizations. In the savanna region to the north, dissimilar populations had neither the incentive nor the strength to overcome ethnic differences and forge a larger state. Prior to the eighteenth century, polities consisted of villages or clusters of villages whose contacts with the larger world were filtered through long-distance traders. Over the next twenty years, French administrators used the military to subdue African populations that, with few exceptions, openly resisted French intrusions. In the 1890s, Samori Touré, seeking to construct a kingdom across much of the Sahel, including northern Côte d'Ivoire, withstood French (and British) forces until he was captured in 1898. At about the same time in eastern Côte d'Ivoire, the Agni (Anyi) and Abron peoples first resisted the French and, after military setbacks, either sabotaged or circumvented the colonial administration. In the early twentieth century, the Baoulé of central Côte d'Ivoire openly defied colonial authorities until forcibly subdued in a bloody, so-called pacification campaign undertaken in 1906 by Governor Gabriel Angoulvant. World War II profoundly affected all of French West Africa (Afrique Occidentale FrançaiseAOF). The rapid surrender of France and the institution of highly discriminatory policies under the Vichy regime alienated the African political elite, many of whom had served France in World War I and expected greater respect. During the immediate postwar years, an emergent, educated African elite demanded reforms in colonial policy. In response, France joined with its colonies in 1946 to form a community known as the French Union and granted to African members rights of free speech, free association, and free assembly. France also eliminated separate legal codes and the practice of unlimited forced labor.
Extractions: Oyibo E. Odinamadu (Mrs.) I was very much elated about the Aka Ikenga -Ohaneze Retreat of 29th-30th October 2004 , at Asaba . When I read of the Assemblys discussions, especially about their concern on the decline of the Igbo Language and what should be done to revive and revitalize it, I was deeply touched. I was so moved because I knew that they had touched on the heart of the matter. At the same time, I was grieved for the fact that the people who would make the reviving and the revitalization happen, precisely the Igbo Elite, are not really that much interested in the language as they should be. If they were, things would have been going on quite differently with the language.

Extractions: This is the News Analysis segment of the Voice of Biafra International broadcasts For October 2 nd You have heard the news; now, the analysis My peoples and my nations shall not be sacrificed for the sake of preserving a worthless idea called Nigeria. So speaketh the Lord. And so it is. The peoples and their nations must live and thrive, though the name and concept of Nigeria die. The peoples and their nations must not, and will not, be allowed to perish just to save a dying Nigeria. So says the Lord. Fellow Biafrans: Commit to the Word of God. Let us start this week by reminding you to complete the Remembrance and Mourning Week started on September 29, through October 1, and ending October 6 , marked by the wearing of a black item on your person during this time. This is to remember with sorrow, and mourn our Biafran brethren brutally murdered in cold blood in genocidal action in one of three major waves of mayhem committed against Biafrans by Northern Nigerians and Western Nigerians at this period in 1966. While this is a voluntary exercise, any Biafran who celebrated Nigerian Independence Day on October 1 (yesterday) with Nigerians will have to look deep into his or her own soul and answer the question, why? This year, 2004, marks the beginning of the observation of this tradition. For 34 years, Nigeria never admitted any wrong-doing, never apologized, never showed any remorse, and celebrates October 1 st like nothing ever happened to Biafrans on this day. For our part, we went along, like fools, acting as if nothing ever happened either, perhaps, thinking that if we did not remember, Nigeria might be appeased and accept us into their country. Well, the folly is over now; we now know better. It is incumbent upon us to remember and honor our own history, to remember the bloody and capital injustice done, without provocation, to our people. We have seen how, if we do not do itif we do not do for ourselvesno one else will: certainly, not the murderers themselves.
