BAD- NEWS Hits Aso- Rock, Igboland As Simon Ekpa’s Loyalists Drop Heartbreaking Announcement About Sit- At- Home In Southest
Ngozi Orabueze, a dedicated supporter of separatist leader Simon Ekpa, has announced that the sit- at- home protests held on Mondays in Southeast Nigeria will persist, despite Ekpa’ s recent arrest by Finnish authorities. Orabueze, who claims the title of Chief of Staff within the Biafra Republic Government in Exile (BRGIE), reiterated her commitment to this controversial form of protest, which has gained notoriety in the region.
Simon Ekpa, who has declared himself the Prime Minister of the BRGIE, was apprehended on charges related to terrorism and inciting violence. He has been a prominent figure advocating for the sit- at- home demonstrations, which he claims are meant to express solidarity with Nnamdi Kanu, the incarcerated leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB). Ekpa has frequently utilized social media to promote the enforcement of these protests, often highlighting the more militant aspects of the movement.
Reports suggest that the Nigerian government is pursuing Ekpa’ s extradition from Finland, despite his status as a Finnish citizen. His arrest has ignited further tensions between the separatist group and Nigerian authorities, as both sides navigate the complex implications of his detention.
In a recent message shared on X, Orabueze expressed her appreciation to the Finnish government for what she characterized as its protective stance towards Ekpa, whom she referred to as ” our Able Prime Minister. ” She criticized the Nigerian state, led by President Bola Tinubu, and other officials, labeling them as ” terrorists. ” Her statements reflect a deepening rift between the Biafran separatists and the Nigerian government, particularly as Orabueze prepares for a gathering of Biafrans in Finland for the Biafra Independence Re- Declaration event scheduled for December 2.
Orabueze emphasized the importance of maintaining the Monday sit- at- home protests as a collective decision among Biafrans, asserting that this unified action is essential for their cause. She lauded the efforts of the Biafra Defence Forces, commending their work in combating what she termed ” terrorists” disguised as members of the Nigerian military and police forces operating in the region. This rhetoric underscores the ongoing sense of conflict and urgency felt by separatist supporters.
As the situation develops, the ongoing protests and the international implications of Ekpa’ s arrest continue to draw attention to the complex dynamics at play in the region. Orabueze’ s statements reflect a determined resolve among Biafran separatists to maintain their agenda and garner support on the global stage, even in the face of escalating challenges.
