Biafra News
Read the latest Biafra news on The Trumpet. Biafra was the secessionist state declared in Nigeria’s South-East by Lt. Col. Chukwuemeka Odumegwu Ojukwu on 30 May 1967, which led to the Nigerian Civil War (1967–1970). More than half a century later, the demand for Biafra remains one of the most sensitive issues in Nigerian politics.Today the agitation is led by groups such as the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) and the Movement for the Actualisation of the Sovereign State of Biafra (MASSOB), with calls for a referendum, Biafra Remembrance Day events, and appeals from Ohanaeze Ndigbo and South-East leaders for dialogue and amnesty for non-violent agitators.Our coverage follows pro-Biafra groups, government responses, court cases, international comments on the issue, and debates about the civil war’s legacy.
