WHO KILLED ISAAC ADAKA BORO?

By
WHO KILLED ISAAC ADAKA BORO? Before we argue about the future of the Niger Delta, we must first understand our history. What do you really know about Major Isaac Jasper Adaka Boro? On 23 February 1966, Boro declared the Niger Delta Republic. His struggle was not presented as a struggle for the Ijaw people alone, but for the wider Niger Delta, driven by concerns about injustice, underdevelopment, and the exploitation of the region's resources. The republic lasted only 12 days before it was defeated by federal forces. Years later, after receiving amnesty, Boro joined the Nigerian Army. In 1968, he died during the Nigerian Civil War under circumstances that remain disputed. To this day, different accounts exist about exactly how he died, and there is no universally accepted conclusion about who was responsible. This brings me to an important question: If Isaac Adaka Boro declared the Niger Delta Republic for the benefit of the entire Niger Delta, why is it that today Boro Day is celeb...
