According to Facebook user, Chukwuebuka Idoko, the women who were part of the Biafran
women conference held in Abiriba, Abia state were chased from the stadium which they
used as venue, by soldiers.
The women in turn went on protest against the actions of the soldiers, with some of the
women going unclad to protest.
The aggrieved women subsequently took their protest to the palace of the king to vent their
frustrations.
Meanwhile, the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) has maintained its stance to mark the
remembrance of the fallen heroes of the Biafra War with a sit-at-home protest in the south-
east and south-south regions of the country on May 30.
The IPOB, in a statement released by its media and publicity secretary, Emma Powerful on
Thursday, May 18, said all markets in the erstwhile Biafra territories must be closed on May
30. The group states that the planned protest, which is to coincide with the annual ‘Biafra
Remembrance Day’, would also be used to honour the memory of pro-Biafra activists who
lost their lives in various encounters with security agencies.
