The inclusion of Igala land to the proposed Biafra remains an insult to our sensibilities and will not be tolerated, the Igala socio- cultural group has warned the Indigenous People of Biafra not to test their strength.
The Igala land group led by Chief Barry Idakwo at a press briefing in Lokoja on Wednesday said that including Igala land was not only insulting but also provocative to the Igala race.
He said, “It is therefore unthinkable to annex the Igala kingdom without consulting us. Probably this may be due to the erroneous belief that Igala kingdom is a clan thus not important to consult the people of the great Igala kingdom before being annexed as part of the agitation.”
“This is against the spirit of fairness, sovereignty, equity, peaceful cohabitation and democracy to forcefully and falsely claim that a great kingdom as the Igala kingdom, which was never defeated in any war is part of Biafra” Idakwo explained.
Speaking further, he said geographically they belong to the Middle Belt and pledge their loyalty to one, indivisible Nigeria.
“We, as a people in the Middle Belt crave for peace at all times because when war breaks out, we will be at the receiving end as the theatre of war. The last civil war holds very unpleasant testimonies”.
