IPC condemns Itsekiri inclusion in Biafara map

''The Itsekiri Progress Club condemns in its entirety the inclusion of the Itsekiri homeland of Delta State in the banded map of the proposed Biafra Republic by the advocates of this dream.

“While we have no say in the aspirations of people to own and air their views and agitate for self-determination.

WE view seriously the inclusion of the land mass of the Itsekiris of Warri Kingdom in their self-serving agitations.’’

The group said : “strange and unusual” the attachment of Itsekiri homeland in Biafra map “as there is no cultural, geographical and linguistic affinity between the Itsekiris of Warri Kingdom of Delta state and the proposed Republic.”

Meanwhile 24reporters.com earlier reported that Dr. Junaid Mohammed, has warned Igbos against using Biafra to threaten Nigerians, saying they are not the superior tribe in the country.

That the second republic lawmaker who gave the warning also called on the Federal Government to stop Igbo elite from hiding under the guise of Biafra agitation to terrorise Nigerians.
