Biafra : A Call for Voluntary Alliance and Peaceful Self-Determination by Anyi Kings

Biafra post

Non-Biafra regions that share common values and are genuinely interested in aligning with the sovereignty project of a Christian Republic of Biafra—such as Edo State and parts of the Middle Belt—should begin formal consultations and expressions of interest without delay.

The future of self-determination requires early engagement, clarity of purpose, and collective resolve among like-minded regions.

The proposed Republic of Biafra shall operate a confederational system of government, where each constituent region remains fully autonomous, exercising control over its internal affairs, laws, security structures, and governance systems. While politically independent, the regions shall cooperate economically through free trade, open markets, and mutual development agreements, ensuring shared prosperity and regional stability.

It is imperative that the Government of Nigeria and its parliamentary legislature initiate an open, honest, and structured dialogue on the peaceful separation of the Biafra region, along with any other components that freely choose to exit what many now perceive as an Islamist-dominated caliphate structure.

Such discussions must be conducted transparently and in good faith, guided by international principles of self-determination, human rights, and peaceful coexistence.

Early negotiation will allow all parties to reach mutually beneficial agreements on borders, trade, security cooperation, citizenship rights, and diplomatic relations.

Failure to act proactively risks external intervention, where foreign powers may impose solutions that do not reflect the will or interests of the affected peoples. History has repeatedly shown that delayed internal resolution often leads to externally dictated outcomes.

This is a sincere and honest appeal to all who are willing to listen and think beyond sentiment or fear. The question of Biafra and the ongoing issue of Christian persecution and genocide in Nigeria can no longer be dismissed, silenced, or reshaped by lobbyists or propaganda machinery. The narrative has irreversibly shifted.

In this era of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), the struggle is anchored on verifiable facts, documented evidence, and strategic international engagement. IPOB does not rely on assumptions or emotional rhetoric; it systematically gathers facts and presents them to relevant international authorities and institutions, which act based on evidence, not political convenience.

The global community responds to truth, data, and consistency. As such, no amount of lobbying can overturn factual realities or suppress legitimate demands for freedom and dignity. The movement for Biafra is no longer a regional agitation—it is a documented international case rooted in justice, survival, and the inalienable right of peoples to determine their own future.

Nicolas Maduro needed China more than it needed him - the consequences of his removal from power are likely to be geopolitical, with some saying it arguably moves the dial on Beijing's campaign of coercion against Taiwan.

Maduro with Chinese envoy hours before capture

Why you can trust Sky News

Donald Trump said shortly after his action in Venezuela that it was "not going to be a problem" in terms of his relations with China because it would get more oil as a result.

The reality is, of course, far more complicated than that.

What you can be sure of is that, despite short-term costs to China, there are multiple ways in which it could (and likely already is) manoeuvring to work this situation to its advantage.

Hours before his capture, Nicolas Maduro was hosting a Chinese delegation.

Publicly, China has and will continue to express its outrage. Venezuela was one of China's major partners in Latin America and non-interference in the internal affairs of other nations is consistently touted as a fundamental point of Chinese principle.

Indeed, its foreign ministry was quick to describe the US operation as "shocking" and a "clear violation of international law".

What happened after Maduro arrived in New York

Its anger might well have been compounded by the optics; just hours before his capture, Nicolas Maduro was hosting a Chinese delegation in Caracas led by its special representative on Latin American affairs, Qiu Xiaoqi.

Footage of them smiling together, seemingly oblivious to what was about to unfold, might well be seen as embarrassing to a nation that does not like to lose face.

Financially, China will be moving fast to shore up its interests, but its exposure to Venezuela is not as great as some might think.

Yes, it is the biggest buyer of Venezuelan oil, but it only makes up around 4% of the total volume of China's oil imports, and analysts say it's shielded to a degree by large volumes already en route (pre-purchased in anticipation of sanctions) and stockpiles that already exist.

In short, Maduro needed China more than China needed Maduro.

The most consequential impacts are likely to be geopolitical.

Indeed, Chinese social media has been alight with users drawing comparisons with Taiwan. They ask, if the US can unilaterally arrest the leader of a sovereign nation, what's to stop China moving to capture the leader of what they see as a renegade province?

While the precedent set by Trump in the last few days could be a dangerous one in theory, in reality it probably doesn't accelerate a Chinese invasion of Taiwan. For now, China has clearly opted for a campaign of coercion, pressure and reunification without a war.

But it does arguably move the dial within that campaign.

Can the US be persuaded to quieten its critiques when China sails close to the line of international law, for instance? Can China reasonably expect a similar 'great power exemption' that the US seems to be taking for itself?

It certainly now has more ammo in its push to persuade the world that it is a more reliable source of global leadership.

China has learnt over the last year that strength and standing your ground is the best position when it comes to operating within Trump's new world order. Do not expect that to change.

I’ve Been Marked For Elimination As Boko Haram Figure,’ Sheikh Gumi Claims, Citing Abuja Security Sources

Published On the Biafra Post

January 4, 2026

According to the cleric, the caller told him his name was among those allegedly listed for assassination.

Controversial northern Islamic cleric, Sheikh Ahmad Gumi, has claimed that he was secretly informed by security sources in Abuja that his name had been listed among individuals marked for elimination with Boko Haram terror group.

Speaking while addressing his congregation, Gumi said he received an early-morning phone call from a source he declined to identify, informing him that his name had been mentioned during national security discussions.

“They called me from Abuja, that there was a security meeting,” Gumi said. “They said I have been marked; that I will be eliminated. And who are Boko Haram?”

According to the cleric, the caller told him his name was among those allegedly listed for assassination.

"Even American, they said they came to fight terrorists, so who are the terrorists? They are the ones.”

He blamed the United States for the emergence of Boko Haram insurgents.

“They are the ones doing it – Boko Haram. You will hear something. Here won't they put bomb? he said.

Gumi alleged that Nigeria’s deepening insecurity and social divisions were worsened by lies, destruction and policies he attributed to United States President, Donald Trump, claiming that Nigerian leaders and clerics retreated into silence as the country slid into crisis.

The cleric said Nigeria became more fractured due to what he described as foreign-backed money and narratives that oppressed citizens and falsely portrayed Christians as the sole victims of insecurity.

According to the cleric, such framing deliberately sowed division among Nigerians and pushed communities into mutual suspicion, while those expected to provide leadership failed to act.

“Because of lies, you brought violence, but where are the leaders, what did they do?” Gumi asked. “What about the scholars? Where are they? Everyone has gone to hide in their corners.”

Gumi argued that no sovereign country would accept external interference designed to divide its people along religious or social lines.

“Which country would agree to bring something in just to divide its people? There is no country that would accept that,” he said. “It would say either you bring all of us together, or you hold us and hand us over to them.”

He accused political and religious elites of abandoning meaningful dialogue, saying Nigerians were left with “noise” rather than solutions, while hardship, oppression and denial of rights intensified across the country.

“You brought us hardship, you broke us. You oppressed us, you denied us our rights,” the cleric said, lamenting what he described as the labeling of parts of Nigeria along religious lines.

Gumi warned that the current situation, marked by fear, silence and division, was dragging the country downward, stressing that continued avoidance by leaders and clerics would only deepen Nigeria’s crises.

“This is the kind of situation we are in,” he said. “It is dragging the country down.”
