We are ready to negotiate with

Biafra – Third IPOB breakaway
group

The latest breakaway group from the Indigenous
People of Biafra, IPOB, the Reformed Indigenous
People of Biafra, RE-IPOB, on Thursday,
expressed readiness to negotiate with the Federal
Government.
This is the third group that broke away from the
frontline group, IPOB.
A splinter group identified as the Rebranded
Indigenous People of Biafra, TRIPOB, had
yesterday, announced its breakaway, saying the
struggle for the actualisation of Biafra was not
feasible, adding that IPOB under it’s imprisoned
leader, Nnamdi Kanu was not flexible.
In a statement by its spokesman, Ikemba Biafra,
the third splinter group said it will only dialogue
if the government was sincere in ending the
protracted agitations for an independent state of
Biafra.
According to RE-IPOB, it will not tolerate any
insincerity from the government.
The statement reads, “If the federal government
is sincere in its dialogue with RE-IPOB, then the
Biafran flag can be exchanged with the Nigerian
flag in the presence of President Muhammadu
Buhari, the National Security Adviser, Director of
State Security and the Elders of Biafra.
“If the dialogue is fruitful; then a peace treaty
and a ‘no victor no vanquished tree’ will be
planted at Gakem where the first shot of the
Nigerian Civil war started and at Amichi Nnewi
where the formal cessation of hostilities of the
war began.”
