الحرب الأهلية النيجيرية تعرف أيضًا بحرب بيافرا، هي نزاع مسلح استمر من 16 يوليو 1967 حتى 13 يناير 1970 في محاولة من ولايات الجنوب الشرقي النيجري للاستقلال عن الدولة الاتحادية في نيجريا وإعلان جمهورية بيافرا. كانت نيجيريا تحت قيادة الجنرال يعقوب جون، بينما كانت بيافرا بقيادة المقدم جيم اودوميجو اوجوكو. مثلت بيافرا التطلعات القومية لمجموعة الإيغبو الإثنية ورأت قيادتها أنها لم تعد قادرة على التعايش مع الحكومة الاتحادية التي تسيطر عليها مصالح مجموعة الهوسا فولاني الإثنية المسلمة شمال نيجيريا. نشأ الصراع نتيجة التوترات الاقتصادية والإثنية والثقافية والدينية التي سبقت إنهاء الاستعمار الرسمي لنيجيريا في بريطانيا خلال الفترة منذ عام 1960 حتى 1963. أما الأسباب المباشرة للحرب في عام 1966 فقد شملت العنف الإثني الديني والمذابح المناهضة لشعب الإيغبو شمال نيجيريا، وحدوث انقلاب عسكري، وانقلاب مضاد واضطهاد الإيغبو القاطنين في شمال نيجيريا. وقد لعبت السيطرة على إنتاج النفط المربح في دلتا النيجر دورًا استراتيجيًا حيويًا.

Fall of Enugu

Biafran president and leader Odumegwu Ojukwu, attempted to distract the Nigerian Army by initiating an invasion of Nigeria's Mid-Western Region in August, but the offensive was brought to a halt. Lieutenant Colonel Theophilus Danjuma took charge of the Nigerian forces at the Nsukka front and prepared to advance on Enugu with seven battalions of the 1st Division.
