Biafra Nations League, BNL, has called on President Muhammadu Buhari to hoist the Biafra flag as an independent nation in Aso Rock come May 30.
National Leader of BNL, Princewill Chimezie Richard gave the advice in a statement on Monday.
According to the group, “Biafra would be a great ally of Nigeria economically as a former member of Nigerian State,” adding that the “crisis going on in the country and Bakassi Peninsula could worsen if President Buhari ignores advice.”
The group warned Buhari against acting like the Biblical Egyptian King Pharaoh, who refused to allow the Israelites leave Egypt for the promise land.
Princewill, who confirmed the gun battle between some Militant loyalists of BNL and Cameroon BIR in Isangele area of Bakassi Peninsula explained that the members of the group from the region were attacked by BIR at their meeting point which resulted in self defense.
He commended the Bakassi people for rising up for the emancipation of Biafra, adding that Bakassi exerted more influence in the Bight of Biafra before Bonny people.
“I commend them for their steadfastness in the struggle for Biafra Republic, all our members interest especially the interest of the people of the Peninsula are well stated in the BNL’s Ekukunela Declarations made in Ekukunela, Ikom LGA Cross River State in 2016.”
