Two days after claiming responsibility over attack at the
Enugu Government House, the leader of the Biafra Zionist
Federation (BZF), Barrister Benjamin Onwuka has
warned security agents against any attempt to arrest him.
Onwuka, who spoke on Thursday through telephone from
his hideout said that though he was not afraid of arrest,
Nigerian security agencies should know that his arrest would
spell doom for the country.
The British trained lawyer said since they operated for
four hours at the Government House without any weapon
and could not be arrested, it would be bloody this time
around if anyone attempts to arrest him.
While reiterating that the group’s soul aim was to reclaim
Biafra’s independence, he admonished that the Nigerian
authorities should be cautious in the way they go after them
because the world power behind their actions is solid.
He said, “We are going again to the Government House,
Enugu. This time around we will be fully armed. We must
take our headquarters from Nigeria”.
DailyPost recalls that the group had on March 8 stormed
the Government House, Enugu with the aim of hoisting the
flag of the defunct Biafra Republic.
Onwuka told reporters in Enugu on Wednesday that they
succeeded in hoisting the flag even though it may have been
removed.
He insisted that the flag must rest in Enugu Government
House which is the epicentre of the Biafran Federation.
