Lauretta Onochie, Senior Special Assistant on Social Media
to President Muhammadu Buhari has told IPOB leader Nnamdi Kanu and his
supporters that the Republic of Biafra will never be actualised.
Onochie dropped the message on Monday following the attacks
on Imo prison and police command which the police have pinned on members of the
Indigenous People of Biafra.
“There’ll never be Biafra again, Never,” Onochie wrote on
Twitter.
Onochie, who hails from Southern Nigeria, backed her claim
with a video showing the then Head of State, Yakubu Gowon, receiving the then
Biafran Vice President, Major General Philip Effiong, who facilitated the
surrender of the Biafran State to Nigeria in 1970.
Effiong had assumed leadership of the secessionist state
after the Biafran leader, Colonel Chukwuemeka Ojukwu, fled to Ivory Coast in
the heat of the civil war.
“The very day nails were put in the coffin of Biafra.
There’ll never be Biafra again, Never!” the President’s aide captioned the
video.

The Buhari regime had in September 2017 outlawed IPOB and declared that the activities of the group constituted an act of terrorism and illegality.
