Biafra: Ijaw Youths Told To Engage Nigeria In Civil War by llakes4real: 1:24am On May 22, 2020
By John Owen Nwachukwu

A Pro-Biafra group, the Biafra Nations Youth League, BNYL, has told the Ijaw Youth Council, IYC, to engage the Nigerian government in a civil war as Biafra did in 1967.

The BNYL was responding to a statement by the Ijaw Youth Council, where the apex Niger Delta youths group told Biafra and Oduduwa secessionists to leave the Ijaw nation out of what they call ‘their utopian republics.’

The Biafra group advised the Ijaw youths to war with Nigeria government to prove that they can stand as a country.

This was contained in a statement to DAILY POST on Thursday signed by Ebuta Takon Akor, Deputy National Leader of BNYL, and Director of Operations, Biafra Broadcasting Service, BBS.

He said that Biafra will be restored with or without the support of the Ijaw Youth Council.

“It was the mentality of some Ijaw youths that led to the reasons the government succeeded in deceiving some people in South-south to hate Biafra.

“But now, the BNYL is here with overwhelming support and membership from Cross River, Bakassi Peninsula, Akwa Ibom, Rivers and even Bayelsa States.”

He said Biafra is not Igbo project, adding that the Igbo are in forefront of the struggle being the majority ethnic group of Biafra

If Biafra so yearn for war, let them attack any Nigeria infrastructures or facilities. Then we will take them serious.

Other than that, we don't care.

Nigeria's breakup is inevitable and that's the reality. There is too much injustice, frustration, nepotism, poverty, underdevelopment etc that will ultimately cause its collapse.

Teach this to afonajs always attacking Biafra; only if they know. We caught one today in Akwa Ibom Political Forum; claiming to be Efik, spewing hate against Igbo. We traced him to Ibadan and other of his accounts with exact same posts. These people ehn, SMH!

Always blaming others for everything. Was it a Yoruba that release the statement by the Igbo and Ijaw youths? Well, generalization would be improper because just above you are brave and intelligent people.
