Nnamdi Kanu’s ‘Disciple’, Ekpa Writes ECOWAS Court Over ‘Indefinite Adjournment’ Of Suit Filed By Northern Groups To Seek Referendum For BiafraThis was seen in a letter signed by Ekpa in his newly proclaimed capacity as the Prime Minister of the Biafra Republic Government In Exile . The letter is dated May 8, 2023, and addressed to the Community Court of Justice, ECOWAS Court.

According to the letter, Ekpa asked the court to reveal the current status of the case, noting how the continued prolongation of the case is jeopardising the interests of Biafra and Igbo people living in Nigeria.The letter reads: “We write to remind you of the lawsuit at the ECOWAS Court sitting in Abuja, by the Coalition of Northern Groups and other ethnic nationalities seeking a referendum towards a peaceful exit of Biafra and other indigenous groups from Nigeria.

“Biafrans are estimated at over seventy-five million people, some living in Nigeria and others dispersed all over the world. Biafra existed as an independent nation from 1966 to 1970 when Nigeria and its allies fought Biafra and annexed Biafra into Nigeria in 1970. “Just before the general elections in Nigeria, about forty people were shot in cold blood in Aba - Abia State, when some unarmed youths marched to the street demanding the release of Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, who the Nigeria government is holding captive, even though the courts discharged him of any wrongdoing.
