By Tonye Maxwell



Members of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) on Sunday took to the streets of Asaba, the Delta State capital, demanding for the actualisation of Biafra. Distributing fliers to motorists and passers-by, the protesters who numbered in thousands, who were chanting Biafran freedom songs, said they were out to sensitise Asaba populace on the need to join forces to realise the objective.

The fliers contains the website addresses of the leaders of the group, their hot lines and invites sympathisers to fellowship with the Indigenous People Of Biafra (IPOB), Asaba Zone at Oneh Primary School, in the capital city. The protesters, numbering over 200, caused traffic jam along the popular Nnebisi Road and disrupted commercial activities as bystanders were deeply carried away by the uniformity with which they occupied the double lanes of the road and their pavements.

The police were seen controlling the traffic and moving with the protesters, to forestall any unforeseen disorder and also to make the protest a peaceful.

Tuning into Radio Biafra days after, the 'Director' Nnamdi Kanu was heard confirming that his group carried out the sensitization, in order to educate the indigenous people about the coming for restoration of Biafra, he also said similar protests have happened in parts of Akwa Ibom and Ogoja in Cross River state in recent works.

In recent months, Radio Biafra which we can authoritatively confirm that is owned by Indigeous People of Biafra (IPOB) at home and in diaspora, have been a source of controversy, with Nigerian Broadcasting Corporation issuing press statement, that the 'illegal' station has been jammed, the engineer arrested and the signal taken off air.
However, days after, the anchor and Director of the radio station called NBC "liars" and said none of their engineers was arrested.

It is also worthy to note that while people believed that the station has been taken off air, they have instead created a relay station in Yenegoa, Bayelsa state. In addition Biafra Television has been launched while the 'Director' could be heard telling his listeners to download their brand new mobile apps. Our inquiry indicated that Radio Biafra was never off air for a day, and it is a failure in part of NBC to issue a statement without succeeding in jamming the same station.

The restoration of Sovereign State of Biafra has taken an upward trend since last year, and from what is obtained in the former Eastern part of Nigeria and Delta state, more people are joining the struggle, and the issue of Biafra is like a daily discussion for everybody from all walks of life.

The agitation has been peaceful so far, and it remains to be known how the Federal Government will handle such a delicate issue, because for one, the agitation does not look like it will die down now or anytime soon, you only need to listen to Radio Biafra and you will realize that the agitation and desire to have Biafra restored has been embraced by million of people both at home and in the diaspora.

I thought Asaba is SS? Yorubas have serious mental problem. As it is right now, so-called SS are more pro Biafra today than SE. Come to Port Harcourt and see for yourself.

Thanks to these pro Biafran governors: Obiano, Wike, Ikpeazu and Okowa. When you stand with the people, the people will stand by you. To Gov. Okowa in particular, Biafrans are proud of you!

I am not and Igbo man neither am I a supporter of the breakage of "Nigeria " but from what our Past Political leaders have done to our commonwealth and resources. I think it is proper for people to express their grievance's in this way. I commend the Igbo people for doing this protest in a civil manner.

Don't forget that the issue of Boko Haram started as a result of poverty miss governance and corruption of our past leaders and even present. So the only thing the aggrieved youth from the North,East,West And South find solace in, is in such a group like Ipob.

The Niger Delta youths did same, by going to the creeks and fighting for "the people of Niger Delta" but at the end of the day, most if not all the agitators are now eating with the same Politician who have plundered and are still plundering our commonwealth.

I just hope that our fellow brothers from the east will not allow selfish people to hijack and sponsor this "Ipob" movement and when they get to the negotiation table,they line their pockets (I.e Niger Delta agitators) and forget about the masses who went on the street to protest;neither did they achieve their collective desire ( for Secession or better eastern development) but only creating some few billionaires out of this Ipob and Radio Biafra.

To the government of Nigeria, please do not understand-estimate this group, if they are genuine and United (which almost impossible) they can't be stopped. Please call all groups speak to them and listen to their cries,grievance's and try to reach out to them..but to those who chose not to take the path of reason,then others options should be made available... But violence should never be the way to tackle such questions.

I hope the new Apc government would be fair to all regions and seriously tackle corruption,Stable Power Supply,Employment and make National and regional development a priority. If if you tackle this 3 Seriously, issue of insecurity will be things of the past.

For an Idle and jobless man could be a tool of anarchy.


God bless Nigeria.

I am still wondering why some regions are getting heart failure over the division of this most dangerous, deadly and corrupt nation in the world, where ethnic and religious killings is their bread. Does it mean that they can't sustain themselves if this killing field is divided? For me and my family we support the division of this failed nation since our unity only produced corruption, killings and terrorism.

I don't understand. Why are the Yoruba's and Hausa's sweating so hard to jeopardize the Biafran dream whom they openly swear to hate? Are the Biafrans really indispensable that Nigerians can't do without? Besides, they don't want to be Nigeria make e no be by force ooh. The actualization of the sovereign state of Biafra is really stronger than what most people anticipated and not even the demon herself.. Queen Elizabeth can stop it this time. The land of the rising sun shall rise again.

I really envy the people of the south-east for having someone as courageous n bold like Nnamdi Kanu at dis time n age, I wish he believes in Nigeria n lead d army of youth in d country against dis our political elites, I can't just imagine d height we will reach, cos people are just looking for a leader who won't compromise n I think he has d quality. I hope he understands soon dat it will b easy for a camel to pass through than hole of a needle than for Nigeria to break, if politics could not break us, civil war could not, river Niger n Benue dat divided us, we built bridges across, den I don't think there is anything that can break us. But maybe if he can get the other two major ethnic groups in d south to support him n make it look like d South versus North, den maybe just maybe, but right now, I wish he use d same strength to rally d youth across board n fight for our generation n d one to come, cos even the rich n powerful people from his side would even b against him cos dey have much to loose, people like Orji Kalu, Cosmos Maduka e.t.c
