BIAFRA at it again; Osibanjo pleads, biafra

The Acting President, Prof. Yemi Osinbajo, has appealed to Nigerians to eschew violence and division as the country is big enough to accommodate all differences, an appeal that appears targeted at pro-Biafra groups fanning secessionist moves in the country.

Osinbajo made the appeal in his message to the citizens to mark 18 years of unbroken democracy in the country and the second anniversary of President Muhammadu Buhari’s administration.

Although he did not mention any group or anyone in his speech, his appeal was unmistakably directed at secessionist groups, such as Indigenous People of Biafra and MASSOB, planning a sit-at-home protest on 30 May, the day Biafra Republic was declared in 1967 by Emeka Odumegwu Ojukwu.
