The Indigenous People of Biafra IPOB (IPOB) has expressed its joy regarding the recognition of its course by the Prime Minister of Israel, Benjamin Netanyahu.
IPOB in a recent statement thanked the Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu for openly recognizing Biafra.
The pro-Biafra group said it was grateful to Netanyahu for openly acknowledging the genocide committed against the people of Biafra by the Nigerian government.
Biafra was a secessionist state in eastern Nigeria that existed from 30 May 1967 to January 1970.
The secession of the Biafran region was the primary cause of the Nigerian Civil War, also known as the Biafran War.
According to Daily Post, the Israeli Prime Minister had during his speech on Holocaust Remembrance Day in Jerusalem, reportedly mentioned Biafra as a sad case in history where the world turned a blind eye to the orchestrated murder of millions of innocent civilians.
Reacting to Netanyahu’s comment, IPOB’s publicity secretary, Emmanuel Powerful said the development signals the best thing to come for the struggle.

IPOB says it will partner with Israel when it eventually becomes a sovereign state
He noted that without a doubt, “this represents one of the greatest achievements of IPOB worldwide under the command structure of our leader Mazi Nnamdi Kanu.”
He said: “After nearly 50 years of blindfold diplomacy when Britain actively connived with Nigeria to blind the world to the horrors and atrocities committed by Gowon, Obasanjo, Buhari at al, the world is slowly waking up to their responsibility of accepting the fact that Britain sponsored the Gowon administration to commit mass murder against Biafrans and Igbos in particular.
“Yesterday, 23 April 2017, marks the first day the name Biafra has been mentioned in public by a major world leader.
“Mentioning Biafra in Jerusalem during his speech, the Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has reinforced holocaust signified the our belief in the inevitability of the restoration of Biafra in the near future.”
He said, if Biafra eventually becomes a
Powerful added: “Biafra nation will be the greatest ally of Israeli because blood is and will always be thicker than water. We are aware that Israel will always love Biafra because they are waiting to see the emergence of a credible Biafran group and leadership, they will speak.
“It’s a gradual process, the whole world can no longer pretend not to be aware now of the genocide against the people of Biafra orchestrated by Britain and executed by the Nigerian Government of Yakubu Gowon.
“Those who claim to be Igbo people or Niger Deltans, especially those born and raised in Lagos or living outside the sacred land of Biafra, should read the full text of the speech by the Prime Minister to understand that appeasing and begging those that hate you will never stop them from killing you.”
In an earlier report by ZENITHBLOG.com, the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) has called for the immediate release of its African representative George Onyeibe by operatives of the Department of State Services (DSS).
The IPOB urged the DSS to release Onyeibe immediately and unconditionally. Speaking in a statement signed by its national coordinator Tonye Amachree, the group said Onyeibe was unlawfully abducted by operatives of the DSS on the morning of Saturday, April 22 in Port Harcourt, Rivers state.

He said: “The IPOB African Representative was abducted from his residence in Atali ObioAkpor local government Area of Rivers State, beaten to a pulp and had his electronic devices from his home. As I speak, we believe he has been taken to an unknown dungeon owned by Nigeria Department Of State Security Service DSS.”
“They carried out their Gestapo raid with two tinted glass Black Jeep in the early hours of Saturday being the 22nd of April 2017,” Amachree said.
Amachree said the arrest and treatment given to Onyeibe can only be perceived as unlawful and detrimental to the well-being of everyone including DSS.
He accused the All Progressives Congress-led administration of illegal arrests and detention of ordinary Nigerians.
