Biafra: OUR RIGHTS TO SELF DEFENCE IS NOW ACTIVATED



February 9, 2016

Press Release

OUR RIGHTS TO SELF DEFENCE IS NOW ACTIVATED

On September 9, 2015, the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) released a statement titled: “PERSISTENT TERRORIST ATTACKS ON BIAFRANS BY THE NIGERIAN STATE.” In that statement, we catalogued the deadly terrorist attacks meted out on peace-loving people of Biafra by agents of Nigeria under the supervision and leadership of Retired Major General Muhammadu Buhari who is the current president of Nigeria. We further alerted the world that Buhari plans to provoke Biafrans into retaliation and then turn around to tag IPOB as a terrorist organization and Biafrans as terrorists.  This was before the leader of IPOB, Mazi Nnamdi Kanu was illegally abducted by agents of Department of State Services (DSS) on October 14, 2015.

Between October 2015 and February 8, 2016 more terrorist attacks were carried out on Biafrans by Nigerian agents under the instructions of Muhammadu Buhari, leading to the untimely and gruesome death of over 50 Biafrans while thousands of others were seriously injured or maimed. Today, February 9, 2016, a combined team of Nigerian Police and Army invaded a private gathering of Biafrans at Aba in Abia State in the Biafran region of Nigeria, where they were offering prayers to God Almighty for Him to give victory to Mazi Nnamdi Kanu in the court. This combined team of armed Nigerian agents opened fire at these defenceless Biafrans, killing 10 of them instantly while others sustained gunshot-induced injuries all over their bodies and vital organs.

We have written several letters and notifications to Heads of Governments of all countries and members of their Legislative Arms on the plights of the Indigenous People of Biafra as we face extermination by the gun-toting and trigger-happy armed agents of Nigeria under the order of Muhammadu Buhari. The world leaders and their governments have turned deaf ears and blind eyes to our plights. We have been tortured, killed, maimed, disenfranchised economically and politically, humiliated, made to desert our homelands, and treated like slaves in our own land. In all these, the entire world pretended that nothing happened.


Now, we have come to the painful but irreversible conclusion and determination to take our fate and destiny in our own hands. Starting from Wednesday, February 10, 2016, Biafrans will now be in the mode of self defence as enshrined by the relevant acts and declarations of the United Nations.  Let no country or world leader attempt to tag us as terrorists because we are not terrorists, rather we are fighting for our survival and from being exterminated from the surface of the earth.

We shall defend ourselves with everything and anything necessary to avoid the continual killing of our mothers, fathers, and children. This is the time for all Biafrans to rise and defend themselves. We cannot fold our arms and watch Muhammadu Buhari kill us the second time after killing over two million of us in 1968.
We have fully and totally activated our rights to self defence!!!

  1. IS THIS NOT WHAT I SAID EARLIER ? WE HAVE TO DEFEND OUR SELF. WHO ARE THE NIGERIA SOLDIER OR FORCE THAT CAN NOT FIGHT BOKO HARAM BUT TREAT BIAFRA LIKE TERRORIST. LOOK AT WHAT THEY ARE DOING TO NNAMDI KANU AN INNOCENT MAN ? LOOK AT WHAT THEY ARE DOING TO BIAFRA. WE NEED TO TREAT THESE PEOPLE MESS AND THEY WILL LEAVE US ALONE. WE HAVE MEN AND WOMAN WHO CAN CONFRONT NIGERIA FORCE AND THEY WILL RUN. WHY STILL DELAYING OR WASTED OUR TIME ? WE HAVE TO TAKE ARM AND CONFROT THIS PEOPLE AND THEY WILL LEAVE US ALONE. I AM NOT HAPPY FOR LONG AND I HAVE SAID IT EARLIER THAT ONLY SOLUTION OF THIS JOURNEY IS WAR. LET THAT WAR TAKE PLACE. IF IT HAPPEN THAT ALL OF US WILL DIED IN THIS JOURNEY LET IT HAPPEN. BUT ALL US CAN NOT DIED. THEY WILL KILLING US AND WE WILL KILLING THEM BUT AT THE END WORLD WILL KNOW THAT WE ARE BIAFRA. ENOUGH SHOULD BE ENOUGH. I HAVE SAID ALL THIS SEVERAL TIMES. LET DEFENSE OUR SELF. I PREFER TO DIED IN WAR FRONT THAN I WAS KILL WITHOUT ARM. I HAVE FIGHT WAR AND I KNOW ABOUT WAR. I HAVE THE EXPERIENCE. I SAID EARLIER THAT NOTHING HAPPEN ON IT OWN. WE MUST MAKE THINGS TO HAPPEN. IF WE FOLD OUR HANDS AND WAITING WHITE PEOPLE TO COME AND FIGHT FOR US IT IS A BIG LIE. NO BODY CAN CLEAR YOUR HOME FOR YOU. IT IS YOU WHO KNOW YOUR HOUSE. THEY CAN ONLY GIVE US HELP BUT CAN NOT FIGHT FOR US. THEREFORE WE HAVE TO CHOOSE THE FIGHT. WHO ARE THE NIGERIA SOLDIER OR THEIR FORCES ? I KNOW THESE PEOPLE AND THEY JUST LIKE TO INTIMIDATE PEOPLE. ONCE WE CONFRONT THEM BELIEVE ME THEY WILL CLEAR AWAY FROM US. WE SHOULD NOT LOOK ABOUT THEIR UNIFORM OR WHATEVER WEAPON THEY CARRY OR HAVE. ALL ARE FAKE. THEY CAN NOT STAND US IF WE CONFRONT THEM. THEY MUST RUN. BIAFRA SHOULD RISE US AND DEFEND THEM SELF AS EARLIER IS BETTER. I SALUTE ALL BIAFRA. ONCE THE FIGHT START I WILL DO MUCH AS I CAN . I LOVE ALL BIAFRA.
