I TRADED WITH BIAFRAN POUND JUST
"YESTERDAY". Biafran pound still being spent ... at
Togo, Benin Republic border towns •. Naira sells for
between N270 - N800 to Biafran £1
***Gbenga Osinaike, just back from Togo and
Ghana
The currency spent in the defunct Republic of
Biafra during the Nigerian civil war (1967-70),
Biafran Pound, has surreptitiously crept into the
currency market, serving as the legal tender in
some communities along the West African coast.
Investigations carried out by Sunday Punch
showed that the money is being spent in the border
town between Togo and Republic of Benin, while
some currency hawkers also exchange it for the
naira and other currencies in the border town
between Ghana and Togo.
One Biafran pound still bears the signature of Dr.
Syvelster Ugo, the then Governor of the Central
Bank of the defunct Biafran Republic and the
picture of a palm tree. Its back has the coat of
arms of the republic with the inscription: “peace,
unity and freedom.”
What is, however, baffling about the currency is
that it has more value than the Nigerian naira and
it is openly accepted as a legal tender in the
affected communities.
When Sunday Punch visited the Ghana and Togo
border town, known as Aflo, some of the money
vendors were eager to sell the currency. They,
however, insisted on selling one Biafran pound at
N800. The scenario at the Togo/Benin Republic
border, known as Helakondi, was different as the
vendors willingly sold one pound for between N200
and N270 to our correspondent. Some food
vendors in Togo were telling passersby that they
were willing to accept Biafran pounds.
In Ghana, the vendors were discreet about the
trade. One of them, who identified himself simply
as Tony, told our correspondent that the money
was not accepted as a legal tender in Ghana, but
that Ghana was a transit route for the currency.
He said: "We get the money from s! ome Igbo
people in Nigeria. They bring it here for us and we
cherish it so much.
“That is why the value is higher than the Nigerian
naira. This is the money that is being spent by
some Igbo communities in Ivory Coast. Many of
them are travellers. On their way to other parts of
West Africa, they stop by and exchange the
currency for the naira with them. They are the only
people who buy the money from us."
Tony, who said he had lived in Ghana for about 15
years, told us that some of the notes were just
printed. "I think the Igbo are trying to make a
statement with the money. It may surprise you
that some of the people, who have the money, are
not willing to sell it because they are looking
forward to a time when the Biafran Republic will
come to stay."
While displaying some ignorance about the defunct
Biafran Republic, he said: "I know they are about
to create a Biafran Republic. I know it will not be
long from now. We are all waiting to see the
Republic."
Another vendor, A Ghanaian, who identified himself
as Albert Leigh, said the Biafran pound was
brought by one Igbo man called Emeka. He said:
"It is one Igbo man that brings the money here.
Whenever he is travelling, he stops by and hands
over the money to money changers. I was
fortunate to be around the last time he came and
also got my share. What surprises me is that many
of the Igbo travellers come to ask of it. I had about
500 pounds with me. I have exchanged everything
for naira. I'm now left with one pound. That is the
extent the trade has gone."
While disclosing that the Igbo trader brings the
money from Lagos, he expressed regrets that he
did not have enough to sell to this reporter.
Leigh, however, refused to disclose the cost of
procuring the Biafran pound.
On Thursday morning when our reporter visited the
Togo/Benin border, the trade in the Biafran
currency was still going on.The vendors of the
money were, however, agitated when o! ur
correspondent made effort to inquire how they got
the money.
One of the vendors, who identified himself simply
as Isa, a Malian, told Sunday Punch that he got
the money from some Nigerians, who pass through
the border.
The following coversation took place between him
and our reporter:
How are you, sir?
I’m fine. I get cefas, naira and pounds, which
money you want?
I want Biafran pounds. Do you have it?
Yes, I get Biafran pound. It is 270 naira for one
pound.
You get plenty of the biafran pounds? I wan buy
plenty.
Sorry. I no get plenty. The man wen dey bring am
never come for a long time now.
Where you dey get the money?
Why you dey ask? You wan to buy now?
If I no wan buy, I no go come here?
As I dey look you, you know be like person who
wan buy.
I wan buym true, true. I just wan to know the
source of the money.
I no know. No bi Nigerian mo! ney. I no understand
you self. Why all these questions?
At that point, the man became agitated and
aggressive. He said: "Oya comot here! I go call
police. Comot!"
He pushed the reporter away and wanted to create
a scene before the reporter quietly left the spot for
fear of being molested.
A Nigerian resident at the border warned this
reporter not to disclose his identity, noting that
they could take him for a spy. "Since the political
crisis in the country, they have been sceptical
about Nigerians. So, don't ever try telling them you
are a journalist. Don't ever identify yourself to any
of them, they could lynch you. Those of us here
have been able to get along with them because we
can speak the Togolese language.
“The Malians have also been able to get along
with them because they are the ones that you see
in this currency business. There are some Igbo too,
but they are very few compared to the Malians," he
said.
Efforts to ascertain the ! level of the acceptability
of the currency yielded little fruits. This reporter
was able to buy a CD cassette from one of the
hawkers around the border with one biafran pound,
which he had exchanged for naira. He was also
able to exchange another 500 pounds for N250 per
pound from another hawker of the money.
There are indications that those who trade in the
money don't know the implication of doing so.
One of them told Sunday Punch that the money is
a Nigerian money. "It is a Nigerian money. That is
why I believe in the money. Nigerians brought the
money here," he said.
Investigations carried out by our correspondent
revealed that the money found its way to the West
Coast during the political crisis in Togo. A resident,
who pleaded anonymity, told Sunday Punch that
he was not aware of the money, but noted that the
money was probably introduced during the Igbo
Day last year in Togo.
"During the Igbo Day, the Igbo came out with a
publication known as Biafran Newspaper. Many of
the Igbo resident in Togo bought the newspaper. =

Although the currency thing does not catch my fancy in anyway, (at least not yet), we shall continue the push for our freedom from "rod" Luggards slave camp called Nigeria!

I have stated it loud and clear that we, the good peoples of Biafra have nothing in common with the Mohammedians Emirates of the North!

Long Live Biafra!

You see the problem here, why can't we appreciate things without attacking others? Why not allow things happen quietly? The same mistake ojukwu made, something ZIK was achieving tactically.

What you don't seem to understand that currently Anaedo is trading in Naira, Pounds, Dollars, etc;

Biafra is an underground development movement that starts with manufacturing and creating jobs in Igboland!
Now we are developing and will soon turn Igboland into the next Dubai!

We never waited for Government help but now that we have it we will utilize it to the fullest!

GEJ until 2019!
Anaedo 4Life!!!
