Group claims responsibility for attack on Government House Enugu,Say all Nigerian should leave Biafra territory before 31 March
Leader of the pro-Biafra group, Biafra Zionist
Movement, BZM, Barrister Benjamin Onwuka has claimed
responsibility for last Saturday’s invasion of Enugu State
Government House saying members of his group took control of the
Enugu State seat of power for about four hours after they
successfully hoisted the flag of the Republic of Biafra and some
banners at the main gate.
He briefed newsmen at the Nigeria Union of Journalists, NUJ,
Press Centre, Enugu, Wednesday morning , where he claimed
responsibility for the invasion, which he said was primarily to reclaim
the old headquarters of the former Biafra Republic.
Onwuka dismissed speculations that the group was sponsored by some
politicians in Enugu State explaining that the major target of the
BZM members was to hoist the Biafran flag as a symbol of rebirth
of the defunct Biafra Republic.
He said that members of the group who were not armed, were in the
Government House from 3 am to 7am before soldiers dislodged them,
insisting that they accomplished their mission.
He, however, warned that Nigeria should vacate the Biafra
territory before March 31, 2014 or risk a bloody war, disclosing that
his group had concluded plans to take over total control of Biafra land
from April 1.
