The Simon Ekpa-led Biafra Republic Government in Exile has condemned attacks and killings of Biafrans in the Ogbaru Community in Anambra state.
Viral video had emerged over the week showing dead bodies of some youths, with accompanying voice notes claiming they were killed by security agencies.
In a statement on Wednesday on Ekpa’s official X handle, he condemned the killings.
A video posted by Ekpa, who is known as the Prime Minister of BRGIE, claimed that Nigerian security forces poured gasoline on lifeless men and set them ablaze.
According to him, the incident will not deter BRGIE from pursuing Biafra Liberation.
“The nation has been thrown into mourning as the terrorists killed and
slaughtered innocent Biafra citizens in Ogbaru and destroyed their homes.
“On behalf of the Biafra Government, our condolences go to the Biafra families in Ogbaru.
“Our objective firmly remains to achieve Biafra Liberation despite the resistance of Nigeria and its institutions within the Biafra territory.
“Nothing will deter the Biafra people’s quest for freedom and Nigeria can never be allowed to become a haven for terrorists, its end has certainly come”, he said.
Meanwhile, as of the time of filing the report, the Nigerian Army has yet to deny or confirm the alleged killing in the Ogbaru community.
However, DAILY POST reported last Friday that unknown gunmen attacked Ogbaru Local Government Area secretariat, destroying some buildings and other properties.
