Leader of Biafra Nations Youth League (BNYL), Prince Chimezie Obuka, has warned that Biafra youths will pick up arms in self defence and would engage any herdsmen who launch further attacks on Igbo land bullet for bullet.

“We are not going to tolerate any further attack in Biafra. The fact that Enugu shares boundaries with them does not mean our land would be easily taken by the terrorists who now disguise as herdsmen,” Comrade Obuka said in a statement, a copy of which was made available to News Express. He said the warning followed reports that Fulani herdsmen were regrouping to launch another attack on Enugu.

“If they want fight, they should give notice of where they will storm; we are ready to exchange bullet for bullet and sword for sword, not going to kill armless villagers in the night,” he said.

Reacting to the statement by Governors from the North defending Fulani herdsmen, Comrade Obuka said: “We are not surprised that northern Governors are sponsoring attacks on communities in Biafra, but they should be prepared because we are ready go to war.”
