Members of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) met with United States Congressional representatives on Wednesday to discuss the imprisonment of their leader, Nnamdi Kanu, and reports of violence against Christians in Nigeria. The group characterized this meeting as a major step forward for their Biafra Restoration Project, occurring during a Civil Society Presentation in Washington, DC.
Mazi Chris Nwaogu, leading the IPOB 4th Directorate of State, joined US Diplomatic Representative Mike Arnold and other officials at the event. The assembly brought together faith leaders, policy experts, and members of Congress to examine the mounting threats against vulnerable ethnic and religious groups within Nigeria.
During the proceedings, IPOB delegates addressed the ongoing detention of Nnamdi Kanu and the deteriorating safety conditions in Nigeria, calling for a democratic solution regarding Biafra. The organization reaffirmed its dedication to seeking justice through international advocacy and legal channels. This meeting aligns with IPOB’s broader strategy to boost global awareness of their cause through focused diplomatic efforts in the US, Europe, and Israel.
