US to back Biafra Declaration in coming months- BRGIE

Biafra, Simon Ekpa

Biafra Republic Government In-Exile has said that the United States of America government will soon issue favorable statements backing Biafra liberation.

The Prime Minister of BRGIE, Simon Ekpa disclosed this in a statement on Thursday.

According to him, the planned support for the Biafra declaration comes amid a series of meetings by US congressional officers, lobbyists and BRGIE’s stakeholders.

He noted that the development showed the successes recorded so far by BRGIE in achieving Biafra Independence.

“In the week of July 8, 2024, the Prime Minister of Biafra, Ekpa Simon Njoku and members of the cabinet had a series of high-level meetings, arranged by BRGIE lobbyists, with prominent international journalists, senior U.S. Congressional officials, and senior Washington, DC think-tank leaders.

“These discussions yielded important outcomes, such as interest by U.S. officials in issuing favorable statements regarding the BRGIE and Biafra-related matters over the coming months.

“The results already achieved demonstrate the success of my administration as the Prime Minister of Biafra with my  ‘multi-dimensional approach’ to achieve Biafran independence, and the importance of the lobbying effort”, he said.

The development comes weeks after the US Department of Justice officially registered the Biafra Republic Government In-Exile, BRGIE, as an entity for Biafra Independence.

Recall that in Nigeria’s public, there has been a resurgence of the call for Biafra Liberation and the release of the Leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra, Mazi Nnamdi Kanu.
