Sit-At-Home: ADF Asks Ndigbo To Wear Black Clothes, Bands To Mark Biafra Day
Despite threats by security agencies to deal with pro-Biafra organisations that are poised to observe the May 30 sit-at-home order, the Alaigbo Development Foundation (ADF) has called on Igbo to wear black clothes and bands, to mark the day.
The group rose from its council meeting in Enugu on Saturday, urging Ndigbo to respect their fallen heroes.
A communiqué issued yesterday, by ADF President, Prof. Uzodinma Nwala and National Secretary, Prof. Nath Aniekwu also asked communities to sound their local gongs or Ikoro and gun salutes.
Noting that observance should be a matter of choice, the communiqué stated, “Ndigbo are enjoined to observe that day in solemn remembrance of all those who died during the Biafra war (Biafrans and friends of Biafra) and other periods in defence of our dignity, life and freedom.
“The forms of celebration should depend on local situations and should include sit-at home based on choice, religious services, lectures; wearing of black dresses and/or black bands, etc, communities should sound their local gongs or Ikoro and gun salutes in memory of our dead heroes.”
The ADF also appealed to Enugu State Governor, Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi, the state traditional rulers’ council and the President of Ohanaeze Ndigbo, Enugu State, to urgently step into the case of unwarranted arrest, torture and dehumanisation of over 140 Igbo sons and daughters in Enugu, who were on their way from a burial ceremony, on the flimsy excuse that one IPOB flag was found in one of the vehicles conveying them.
“The sorrowful site of over 100 old men, women; children dumped in an open field and denied bail is an indication of failed political leadership in Alaigbo and an evil omen of what to expect after May 29, 2019,” the ADF warned.
It however, applauded the prompt action of the Enugu State Government to meet the demands of the Federal Ministry of Aviation for full equipping of the Akanu Ibiam International Airport, Enugu and implored the ministry to finish the work as soon as possible.
They also appealed to individuals whose property were affected by the demolition to see it as a price to pay for the needed economic development of the greater Igbo nation.

The World will stand still on the 30th May, 2019 to lit Millions of Holy Candles in Memory of Victims of worst Genocide in Human History which killed 8M Biafran Citizens perpetrated by Nigeria State led by GOWON in Conspiracy with Britain led by PM Harold Wilson in Alliance with USSR, JORDAN, EGYPT and SAUDI ARABIA between 1967-1970 for purposes to exterminate the Igbo Population in Biafraland in order to steal and Plunder all their Vast Resources especially OIL and GAS. The details of this unkindest and crudest Killings in Biafraland will make a Lion heart faint in Tears and Sorrows, yet UN has not taken action to bring the perpetrators to Justice.Biafra Genocide Memorial will be marked by complete lock down in Biafraland with a SIT-AT-HOME order.
The World must also Remember those Countries and Individuals who stood against these gruesome Atrocities and Evils, Most especially Gabon, Ireland, France, Cote devoire, Tanzania an Americans Fred Trump Snr and most especially Bruce Mayrock who Sacrificed his Life by setting himself on Fire in front of UN Headquarters in New York USA on 30th May, 1969 to protest against the worst Genocide in Human History in Biafraland and inaction of UN Security Council.
The World must be united at this Time to Extol the Memories of the Victims and get the UN Security Council to unanimously endorse the Arrest and Prosecutions of the Perpetrators of Genocide inside Nigeria which are legion including GOWON, DANJUMA, BUHARI, OBASANJO, ADEKUNLE, BURATAI, DAURA, AWOLOWO, MURITALA MOHAMMED ETC Prosecution of suspects dead or alive.
The World must be united to call upon the UN Security Council to endorse the Sovereign REFERENDUM for Restoration of Independent State of Republic of Biafra.
The World must also be notified that since 1970 till date the Republic of Biafra has been under unholy and illegal occupation and annexation by Nigeria State without any REFERENDUM which is a clear Violations of International Laws and UN Charter which states that you cannot forcefully annex another Country without a REFERENDUM. Biafrans has been under perpetual Enslavement in Nigeria and their Human Rights violated daily. Buhari their President has threatened them with Jihad, Genocide and total Extermination.
Since UN Security Council intervened in 1990 to rescue and liberate Kuwait from Saddam Hussein of Iraq illegal occupation and annexation. Republic of Biafra situation is very urgent to avoid the impending Armageddon and Holocaust. BIAFRA MUST BE FREE and REFERENDUM to usher in the INDEPENDENCE is NON NEGOTIABLE and INEVITABLE.Irish Government has reported and confirmed 8 Million Biafran Citizens were killed in the Igbo Holocaust of 1967-1970 and remembering them is a Holy Service to Humanity.
The World must be united to call upon the UN Security Council to set up BIAFRA GENOCIDE TRIBUNAL to prosecute the Nigerian perpetrators of this heinous Atrocities like the NUREMBERG TRIBUNAL that tried the perpetrators of JEWISH Holocaust of 1940s.
