> I am calling on Governor Umo Eno of Akwa Ibom State and Senate President Godswill Akpabio to officially honor Major General Philip Efiong, son of Ibiono Ibom LGA, who ended the Nigerian Civil War.

 On January 12, 1970, General Effiong announced the surrender that saved millions of lives and declared "There is no victor, no vanquished." Yet 56 years later, no national monument, no federal honor, no history curriculum in Akwa Ibom properly recognizes him.

Effiong was born in Ibiono Ibom, served Nigeria with loyalty, and chose peace over continued war. Honoring him is not about Biafra — it is about honoring a Nigerian patriot who chose unity.

 We ask: 

1. Declare January 12 as Philip Effiong Day of Peace in Akwa Ibom

 2. Build a monument in Uyo and Ibiono Ibom

 3. Include his peace declaration in school history

 4. Posthumous national honor from Federal Government

 44 Nigerians have signed. Help us reach 50 tonight and 100 this week. Sign: https://c.org/2JG8t2nvqd
