The Biafra Nations Youth League, BNYL, has
disclosed that referendum activities would commence on November 6 in the
South-East.
BNYL leader, Princewill Obuka,
made the disclosure in a terse statement on Wednesday.
Obuka also berated Justice Binta
Nyako of an Abuja Federal High Court for threatening to withdraw from the
ongoing trial of Nnamdi Kanu, leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB.
Recall that the trial judge, who
was infuriated by some applications filed by Kanu’s counsel, Ifeanyi Ejiofor
during yesterday’s trial had threatened to hands-off the
matter.
Ejiofor was speaking on a motion
he planned to bring before the court, but whose content was not listed by the
judge.
The judge, while reacting to
Ejiofor, said she had been pushed to the brink by the defendant’s counsel and
would recuse herself.
“If you don’t want me to continue in this matter, I will recuse myself,” she
had said.
However, the BNYL leader berated
the trial judge for issuing such threat.
Obuka, who also denied knowledge
of Kanu’s whereabouts said the “judge is expected to move the court and cause
proper investigation to ascertain whether he is being held truly by the
Military or in hiding.”
Obuka further reiterated the
body’s commitment to the Biafran actualization struggle.
“Referendum activities would
commence after the event on November 6 marking the death of Late Philip
Effiong, who signed Biafra surrender,” he claimed.
