Igbo Nation, Biafraland Elders Sue Nigeria Over Sovereignty, Join African Union, AU

Biafra Takes Nigeria To Court Seeking
Independence
Leaders of Igboland have taken Nigeria to a Federal
High Court in Owerri Imo State seeking the
independence of Biafra republic.
In addition to the lawsuit, they revealed that Biafra
has now joined African Union.
Going by this development, according to a document
made available on-line and countersigned by the
solicitor of the Indigenous People of Biafra, Emeka
Adolf Chigozie, the actualisation of Biafra is now
taken up by elders and professionals in Igbo land,
home and abroad, including Ohanaeze Ndigbo
chieftains, using a legal framework outside the
Movement for the Actualisation of Sovereign State of
Biafra (MASSOB) method.
The document read in part: "The scepticism and
doubts expressed by some people, like Mr. Kalu Onu­
ma, who asked the question, 'Are you guys for real or
you've been smoking something?" Our solicitor has
decided to countersign this announcement and in­
clude his professional details. It is unfortunate that
the pro-Biafran groups, which started the Biafran
independence movement many years ago, did not
follow due process of law and thereby, brought dis­
grace and ridicule upon a genuine self-determination
struggle of indigenous people of Biafra that should
be anchored on law. At the moment, the Biafran inde­
pendence movement has taken a new shape. It is no
longer in the hands of charlatans and fraudsters or
blind leaders of the blind. It is now in the hands of
intellectuals, professionals and diplomats.
"We are presently in Court with Nigeria in Suit No.
FHC/OW/ CS/192/2013 at the Federal High Court,
Owerri. We sued Nigeria in a representative capacity
by Bilie Human Rights Initiative because Biafra is not
yet a sovereign entity that can sue or be sued. We
are discussing with powerful governments in the
international community. "The Biafran struggle is
now led by the elders of Biafraland. The Chairman is,
the Honourable Justice Eze Ozobu, OFR, the founding
father and founding President of Ohanaeze Ndigbo.
The Deputy Chairman is Dr. Dozie Ikedife, Ikenga
Nnewi, JP, OON; the Secretary is Col. Joe Achuzia.
Other members of the Governing Council are drawn
from all parts of Biafraland, including South East,
parts of South-South and parts of the Middle Belt
being the land of Biafra, as shown in the Ancient Map
of Biafra 1660 and 1707, which we have filed in
court."
