Biafra
Nations League Sets Date For Referendum
The Biafra Nations Youth League, BNYL,
says its referendum activities would begin on November 6 in the South-East of
Nigeria..
The group leader, Princewill Obuka, made the announcement
in a brief statement.
He also criticised Justice Binta Nyako of an
Abuja Federal High Court for threatening to wash his hands off the ongoing
trial of Nnamdi Kanu, leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB.
Justice Nyako, angered by some applications
filed by Kanu’s counsel, Ifeanyi Ejiofor during yesterday’s trial had
threatened to withdraw from the case.
Ejiofor was speaking on a motion he planned to
bring before the court, the content of which was not listed by the judge.
The judge, while reacting to Ejiofor, said she
had been pushed to the brink by the defendant’s counsel and would recuse
herself.
“If you don’t want me to continue in this
matter, I will recuse myself,” she had said.
In reaction, Obuka condemned Justice Nyako for
issuing such threat.
Also denying knowledge of Kanu’s whereabouts,
Obuka state the “judge is expected to move the court and cause proper
investigation to ascertain whether he is being held truly by the Military or in
hiding.”
Obuka further re-emphasized BYNL’s commitment to
the Biafran actualization struggle.
“Referendum activities would commence after the
event on November 6 marking the death of Late Philip Effiong, who signed Biafra
surrender,” he claimed.
