I specifically called upon our political representatives in the Nigerian national assembly to commence moves for the peaceful separation of the Biafran territory from Nigeria by raising and initiating a motion at the floor of both the Nigerian Senate and the Nigerian House‭ ‬ ‭of‭ ‬ ‭ ‬Representatives,‭ ‬they‭ ‬ ‭ ‬heard‭ ‬ ‭ ‬the‭ ‬ ‭ ‬demand‭ ‬ ‭ ‬of‭ ‬ ‭ ‬the‭ ‬ ‭ ‬people‭ ‬ ‭ ‬they‭ ‬ ‭ ‬claim‭ ‬ ‭ ‬to represent but chose to ignore our demand to their own detriment.

The Directorate of State of the Indigenous People of Biafra will not tolerate further degradation of our essence and values by these politicians who make a caricature of our people every four‭ ‬ ‭ ‬years‭ ‬ ‭ ‬by‭ ‬ ‭ ‬distributing‭ ‬ ‭ ‬wheelbarrows‭ ‬ ‭ ‬and‭ ‬ ‭ ‬cups‭ ‬ ‭ ‬of‭ ‬ ‭ ‬rice‭ ‬ ‭ ‬to‭ ‬ ‭ ‬spite‭ ‬ ‭ ‬our‭ ‬ ‭ ‬collective sensibilities.

Any politician of Biafran extraction who does not have the courage to demand for justice for the Biafran people have no business desiring to represent the Biafran people. Any politician who desires to represent our people or to be called our political leader must be able to protect the collective interests of the Biafran people until we are given the democratic opportunity of a REFERENDUM to decide our collective fate as a people.

It is indeed time to reclaim our sovereignty from those whose have merchandised our collective interest for their personal interest. The time for total clean up in other to restore those values and essence that define us as a people is now.

Mazi Chukwukadibia Edoziem
Head of Directorate of State of The Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB)
