WE DID NOT ATTACK ENUGU RATHER WE HOISTED THE BIAFRAN FLAG THERE SAYS BIAFRAN ZIONIST MOVEMENT

 

The Biafrian Zionist Movement(BZM) has taken responsibility of the attack on Enugu government house last Saturday. Ben Onwuka the movement leader says it was not an attack rather they went to hoist the flag in the capital city of Biafra which is Enugu. 

According to Sahara Reporters: Barrister Onwuka who addressed a news conference at the NUJ, Press Centre, Enugu said contrary to media reports, the invasion of the Enugu seat of power was ostensibly to hoist the flag of the Republic of Biafra at the Government House which he said is the headquarters of the old headquarters of the defunct Biafran Republic and not to either attack or abduct Governor Sullivan Chime.

He noted that his group succeeded in their mission as they not only hoisted the flag and some banners as the symbol of the rebirth of Biafra but took control of the Government House for four hours before they were dislodged by some security operatives.

He Further said it is a sign to show Biafrians that there is still hope,“The reason we did it was to show the Biafra people that the hope for Biafra is still alive and that nothing shall quench the aspiration of the Biafra people to be independent. That independence has been resurrected. So the Biafran flag was raised at the Government House on the 8th of March, 2014 and I, Benjamin Igwe Onwuka led the operation.

“Let me make it clear. The states that will make up Biafra now are Benue, Kogi, Delta, Edo, Bayelsa, Rivers, Cross Rivers, Akwa Ibom, Ebonyi, Anambra, Enugu, Imo and Abia and Southern Ondo.
