Wagalla Massacre - When A Government Fights its Own People

from African Footprints with Effie · host African Footprints Podcast

What happens when a government decides to profile its own people based on their peculiar culture and lifestyle? Well, for the Dagojia community, little is left to the imagination for in 1984, under the sanction of the executive government, thousands of their men, aged from 12 years and above were rounded up and taken to Wagallah Air Strip for 'enhanced interrogation.' What followed were perhaps the worst atrocities to be committed to a people who for the most part, were victims of a government that failed them.
