The leadership of the Coalition of Pro Biafra Organizations (COPROBIG), a non violence movement that unites various positive Biafra agitators, activists and groups seeking self-determination for the Indigenous Biafra people has urged Igbo’s to leave Lagos.
The Coalition body which comprises pro-Biafra groups such as the Movement for the Actualization of the Sovereign State of Biafra (MASSOB), Eastern Peoples Congress (EPC), Billie Human Rights Initiative (BHRI), Biafra Liberation Council (BLC), Biafra Revolutionary Force (BRF), Biafra Revolutionary Organization (BRO), Biafra Reconciliation (BR) and Union of Biafra Scientists and Engineers spoke after an emergency meeting.
They stated thus: ‘That we wish to salute the courage of the south Western states of Nigeria nation to remind the Igbo Biafrans that it is time to leave the Nigeria state.
“That we treated the Arewa’s quit notice from the northern region of the country in October 2017 with kid’s gloves and this time it is coming from the southern states of Nigeria. We view it as the consummation of absolute hatred and marginalization of Ndigbo.“That we view the silence of Otumba Gani Adams, Ooni of Ife, Yoruba traditional, religious and opinion leaders on the planned destruction of Igbo lives and properties as a direct subtle and hypocritical support, sponsorship and back up to the organizers of the “Igbo Must Go destructive protest” in Yoruba land.
That we also observe that the kid glove treatment and hypocritical reaction of the President Bola Ahmed Tinubu led federal government and non arrest of “Igbo Must Go destructive protest” organizers are another indication that they have federal government back up.
“That we demand the leaders of the south Western states not to hesitate to legally address their quest to drive out Ndigbo from their region and see if our people will not oblige to their exit order to the fullest within 90 days.
“That the pro Biafra leaders are demanding the whereabout of Igbo religious, traditional, political and opinion leaders including Igbo technocrats and intelligentsia.
“That we are requesting Igbo leaders to wake up and commence collective legal process of self-determination for the Igbo nation before they unleash another genocide on Ndigbo.
“That Igbo international diplomatic gurus in diplomatic collaboration with other well meaning African patriots to save the Igbo nation in restoring the state of Biafra in the African continent.
