Biafra National Guard (BNG) says the Operation Python Dance II, to be
carried out by the Nigerian Army in the South-east was targeted at
Nnamdi Kanu and other agitators.
A statement Wednesday morning by self-styled ‘Major Nkuma’, said BNG
knew that the operation “is a show of force and genocide intention which
has already started”.
It, however, said the Army should be prepared for BNG warning that
its the leadership of General Innocent Orji was ready for war.
The statement reads “We fear not; we dine, sleep and live hostility
and will defend our lives. BNG continues to make it loud and clear that
Biafra needs activation of self defense as enshrined in UN 2007 charter
to restore Biafra and that is what BNG represents.
“Our commander; General Innocent Orji does not subscribe to
defenseless agitation which is suicidal in Nigeria, but to continue on
the path of non-violence, Nigeria must withdraw lethal force which might
be impossible because we are considered slaves that deserve death. Our
commander knows the terrain of self defense as enshrined in 2007 UN
Charter on the rights of indigenous people.
“As we continue to make it clear; self defense is due because our
people have continued to face death, threatened with suicide, promised
to be crushed by Buhari and the leader of Indigenous People of Biafra
whom BNG is saddled with responsibility of defending has come under
severe threat as well.
“The people of Biafra and her leadership fully support the decision
of Biafra National Guard because we are not violent agitators but out to
stop the unlawful killing of our people. Biafra National Guard is not a
violent group rather Nigerian military is violent to our people;
killing and maiming us and BNG is an outfit designed to curb the wanton
killing of Biafrans. We have never been violent in any shape or form;
but would resist unlawful killing of our people.
“Operation Python Dance I- was formerly launched in Oct 27 through
Nov 27 2017 which purportedly targeted kidnappers but the recent launch
according to Major General David Ahmadu targets violent agitators and
the question is, what violence is there in Southeast? The Nigerian
military must understand that Biafra National Guard values life and
respect human rights.
“Unlike Nigerian military that find strength against unarmed and
peaceful civilians; we the Biafra National Guard find strength against
unlawful hostile, undisciplined, happy-trigger soldiers that violate
human rights, crush peaceful and law-abiding citizens. Operation Python
Dance II in Southeast is a show of cowardice; BNG is not Southeast
movement but Biafra military wing.
“The blood of the people of Biafra makes the python dance and merry;
our molestation makes the python happy and laugh. Road blocks in Biafra
make the python dance and party round, throw money like politicians.
Raping our women makes the python dance but very soon Biafra National
Guard shall make the python shade tears by denying the python the evil
deeds that makes it dance.
“Northern
Nigeria under the leadership of Arewa consultative forum obviously
declared genocide against us; made genocide song, threatened us with
quit notice and no single operation was launched in Northern Nigeria to
defend our people. Nobody demanded account or investigated the act;
nobody launched road blocks, nobody raided and not a single army was
seen loitering in the North.
“Everything was okay because people that deserved death were to get
it; even if Python Dance X (10) will be declared because Biafra National
Guard vowed self defense, let them go on. If Nigerian military is fit;
they should crush Boko Haram and not civilian populace. This python
dance should be well informed that the days BNG was away are over.
“Fulani herdsmen have been killing our people and raping our women;
attacking us in our worship centers and destroying our farms and nobody
including the Nigerian military launched any operation to checkmate this
terrorist organization sponsored by Buhari and Britain but just the
moment Biafra National Guard declared that they won’t fold arms while
their people are murdered on daily basis, Buhari and Britain launched
operation Python Dance II. We refuse to continue to be species of
terror; we shall defend ourselves, our women, our farm and our worship
places against unconstitutional acts.
“Britain is responsible for the launching of Operation Python Dance
II; they want to keep depopulating us and keep us under slavery to have
unlimited access to our natural resources. Britain must be held
responsible in advent of full blown war because we shall defend
ourselves.
“The genocide being orchestrated by Britain in Biafra land; there is
the need for other world leaders to beam their searchlight in Biafra as
to bring Britain to justice. Since 1967; it has been this way but the
end of the road is today.
“The Russian federation, USA under the leadership of just-Trump and
Israel must make up for their silence between 1967 and 1970 genocide
against the peaceful people of Biafra, they looked on while their
precious and natural allies perished in the cold hands of Britain.
“We have moved on and mankind has moved on but never again shall we
go back to 1967 monumental sheer wickedness against humanity. Biafra
National Guard is ready to restore and defend the sovereign state of
Biafra.
“Finally; Biafra National Guard uses this medium to call on Biafra
political class to do what is essential because time is ticking and
there must be accounting. The people of Biafra and her leadership must
urgently support and pray for her military wing because BNG is the pride
of the people and the backbone of the leadership of the people of
Biafra under Nnamdi Kanu whom the people have chosen.
“If terrorists are caught and locked underground but immediately
released by the Nigerian security of Hausa/Fulani and given amnesty by
Nigerian government then continued detention of Chidiebere Onwudiwe,
Maduka Mmadu, Bright Chimezie, Mrs Onyekachi Orji, Miss Okwudili Bassey,
Sebastian Amadi, Uchenna Nicholas respectively in Abuja, Onitsha and
Awka prisons is an act of hatred. They must be released because they
have committed no crime.”
