Biafra: Nigerian Govt continuously violating rights of Igbos – Ekpa

The Simon Ekpa-led Biafra Government in Exile has claimed that South-Easterners have continued to receive ill treatment from Nigeria despite keeping faith in the country.Ekpa, who made the assertion on his X handle, told Igbos holding various positions in the Nigerian government that they had gotten nothing but a continuous violation of their fundamental basic human rights.He said the most viable option for the people was to key into the Biafra project.“Join hands with your fellow Biafrans in exercising your inalienable rights to self-determination; it is a moral obligation and, most importantly, a fight for self-preservation,” he said while urging the Igbos to back his Declaration of the Restoration of Independence of Biafra on November 29 to December 3, 2024, in Finland.He said that over 50 million Igbos have in the past months legally voted for the Biafra Referendum from the Nigerian government.He told the Igbos: “You have served under Nigeria, and you are well aware that the establishment of Nigeria as an artificial experiment by the British has done nothing but the continuous violation of our fundamental basic human rights.“For this reason, joining hands with your fellow Biafrans in exercising your inalienable rights to self-determination is a moral obligation and, most importantly, a fight for self-preservation.“The steps we are taking for the actualisation of our independent state are by an internationally recognised way of referendum.”President Bola Ahmed Tinubu earlier in the week appointed Bianca Ojukwu, wife of the late Biafran warlord, Dim Chukwuemeka Odumegwu Ojukwu as a member of his cabinet.The development is seen as one of the moves by the President to get the South-East.However, Senator Enyinnaya Abaribe described the sack of the Women Affairs Minister, Uju Kennedy Ohanenye and the subsequent appointment of Bianca as ‘Renewed Shege’ on the Igbos by the Tinubu administration.
