Posted by Thandiubani on Tue 30th Nov, 2021 - tori.ngAccording to the group, they are not against restructuring, stressing that they only want Biafra.
The Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) has it is not against the restructuring of Nigeria.
The group said all it wants is a referendum to determine whether they will remain in Nigeria.
The secessionist group made this known in a statement on Monday by its spokesperson, Emma Powerful.
According to the group, they are not against restructuring, stressing that they only want Biafra.
He said, “Nigerian government must bear one thing in mind; IPOB is not fighting restructuring. We are not against restructuring but our demand is not restructuring. Our demand is the restoration of Biafra State. All we need is a date for referendum to decide whether or not we want to continue with this forced marriage (Nigeria)
“Those who think Nigeria is ready for restructuring may have to think again. Those benefiting from the current lopsidedness have made restructuring impossible. They are unlikely to heed the clamour for restructuring.
“But for us, the only thing that can make us slow down a little is government giving us date for referendum. Restoration of the sovereign State of Biafra is a divine mandate. Our eternal leader Dim Chukwuemeka Odumegwu Ojukwu told them to restructure Nigeria they said no and killed millions of Biafrans in the war.
“Mazi Nnamdi Kanu and IPOB did not come on board to demand restructuring; we are for total freedom and independence.”
