The Indigenous People of Biafra has expressed its readiness to engage in negotiations with the Federal Government for the peaceful separation of Biafra from Nigeria, under the supervision of the United Nations through a referendum.
The pro-Biafran faction claims that their peaceful campaign for Biafra’s independence commenced in 2012 without resorting to violence or criminal activities, yet they accused the Federal Government of persistently attacking their supporters.
This information was conveyed in a press statement issued on Saturday by the group’s spokesperson, Emma Powerful.
According to Chinedu, IPOB has suffered the loss of more than 5,000 members and assets valued at over $1 billion due to the excessive use of force by Nigerian security agencies.
The statement read,
The group made it clear that they are sticking to their peaceful approach in seeking self-determination, following the rules set by the world. They are determined to achieve their goals without resorting to violence or breaking any international laws.
They said that they will keep working towards self-determination peacefully and in a way that follows the rules everyone agrees on.
The cardinal rule under which IPOB was formed is to lead the way to a peaceful separation of Biafra from Nigeria. Biafra and Nigeria are two different nations.
