Legal consultant to the leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB) Aloy Ejimakor, has called for the creation of what he described as a “sovereign safe zone” for Christians in Nigeria, following reported massacre in Jos, Plateau State.
Ejimakor said the incident underscores the need for what he termed a permanent solution to ongoing attacks against Christians in the country.
“The #PalmSunday massacre of Christians in #JosNigeria (by Islamists) underscores the urgency of creating a ‘sovereign safe zone’ for Christians in Nigeria,” he said.
He argued that such a measure would address what he described as persistent violence and insecurity.
“This is the only permanent & sensible solution to the unbridled carnage/terror that has convulsed Nigeria to no end & martyred thousands of Christians,” he added.
Ejimakor further stated that the proposal aligns with positions previously advocated by Biafran groups, alleging that the Federal Government instead opted for the detention of Kanu.
“It’s on record that this is the solution the #Biafrans had long suggested but instead of considering it, the Government of Nigeria resorted to renditioning & imprisoning Mazi Nnamdi Kanu for life,” he said.
He also called on international leaders to intervene in the matter.
“It has now become more urgent & compelling for comity of nations & world leaders… to prevail on the Nigerian government to free Mazi Nnamdi Kanu and initiate prompt steps towards achieving a permanent solution,” he said.
