The Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) has said Biafra can exist now as a sovereign state following the discovery of crude oil in the North.
IPOB said this in a statement on Friday adding that the discovery was an answer to the prayers of its leader, Nnamdi Kanu who had prayed that the Northern region should discover petroleum in commercial quantity to facilitate the Biafra exit.
The self-determination group made this known according to the statement signed by its spokesperson, Emma Powerful.
Recall that President Muhammadu Buhari, on Tuesday, flagged off the commercial production of crude oil and gas from the $3bn Kolmani Integrated Development Project.
