The Nsukka born movie star, barrister Kenneth Okonkwo, popularly known as Andy Okeke, is a well-known actor. We all remember when he joined politics and wanted to run for the governorship seat of Enugwu state. He took on IPOB and its leader, Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, launching tirades here and there, and even referring to…
From the first day Britain executed its coup against the indigenous nationalities living in the contraption they called Nigeria in 1914, Biafrans have been clear targets for mass murder. The reasons were obvious; the Biafrans were republican in nature, as well as democratic. They abhor dictatorship and feudalism, and therefore would not accept what…
It is important to bring to the notice of humanity that 30th of May annually, is very sacrosanct in the history of Biafra and Biafrans. As that very unique date draws closer this month, Biafrans all over the world are warming up to accord it in line with irrevisible historical choice, definitive commemoration in…
The sit-at-home order by IPOB is not new. It has been with the people since 2014 when the Supreme Leader of Indigenous people of Biafra, Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, remarkably hosted the Biafra Hero’s Day at the premises of the then newly erected cenotaph in Enugwu.

There’s a strange fire being lit in the path of our collective struggle. Recall that it was our supposed…
It is my pleasure to use this medium to contribute my own quota on the way forward regarding the nightmarish Biafra struggle against Nigeria. As you can see, Biafra has been a dangerous bone in the throat of Nigeria. Recently, Nigeria has been reeling in a serous mess due to the formidable and irreconcilable…
National Human Rights Commission (NHRC) says police brutality and extortion are highest in the south east. The NHRC and other organisations accuse policemen of terrorising the same people they are supposed to protect. Segun Awosanya wants every policeman to undergo mental evaluation before being posted Brutality and extortion by men of the Nigeria Police…
Oil spillage, chronic poverty, and environmental destruction were said to have precipitated militancy in the Niger Delta region of Nigeria. Nevertheless, since 2003 when Asari Dokubo bragged to have staged combat against the federal government over these ills, the stated problems seem to have been on the rise. Asari Dokubo – a Muslim…
