Africa-Press – Nigeria. The Simon Ekpa-led Biafra Republic Government in Exile has commenced another round of civil disobedience in protest of the prolonged detention of Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB.
The pro-Biafra movement is now asking residents to boycott the Anambra guber election on November 8, 2025.
Further BRGIE has also declared a three-day sit-at-home in south-east Nigeria over the continued detention of Kanu.
In a statement on Wednesday by its acting Prime Minister, Ogechukwu Nkere, the group said the sit-at-home would hold on November 6, 7, and 8, 2025, respectively.
The sit-at-home is believed to be an attempt to frustrate the Anambra governorship election.
BRGIE noted that Biafrans remained resolute on their exit from Nigeria.
According to the pro-Biafra agitator, the decision is based on the Nigerian security agency’s alleged denial of Nnamdi Kanu’s access to medical attention and the imprisonment of its prime minister, Simon Ekpa, in Finland.
BRGIE commended the United States of America President, Donald Trump, for declaring Nigeria a ‘Country with Particular Concerns’ over alleged Christian genocide.
It noted that the next move is for the US under President Trump to sanction the Nigerian government and leaders.
“The Biafra Republic Government In Exile (BRGIE) wishes to remind all Biafrans and Nigerian politicians parading themselves in old Anambra that the Biafra de facto government in the homeland of Biafra had issued no elections in Nigeria in Anambra on lockdown 6, 7 and 8 November 2025.
“Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, leader of Biafra, was kidnapped in Kenya & died in DSS detention as they denied him access to medical facilities because Biafrans had voted to exit Nigeria and unanimously declared their independence on 2nd December 2024 in Lahti, Finland.
“Prime Minister Simon Ekpa has been imprisoned by Finland through the efforts of Igbo politicians working with the Nigerian government and the European Commission.
“Any attempt to conduct this illegality in Biafran territory will meet a brick wall from the Biafran people.
“If the American lawmakers and President Donald Trump could place importance on our lives in the southeastern part of Nigeria, the Biafra Territory, by listening to our pleas in Washington, D.C., through our lobbying efforts of BRGIE, by finally applying sanctions & measures against the Nigerian Islamic state, yet our own corrupt politicians working for their personal and family pockets care less, which means we have to send them out to join the Boko Haram sects in Sambisa Forest.
“50,048,916 numbers of Biafrans voted yes to exit Nigeria in our 2024 concluded self-referendum, and 517 delegates ratified the Declaration of Independence restoration of Biafra on 2nd December 2024. We are going forward & not backwards. There will be no Nigerian elections in Anambra because this is Biafran territory.
“The Biafra Republic Government in Exile and De Facto in Homeland hereby appreciates President Donald Trump and the U.S. lawmakers for designating Nigeria as a country of particular concern.
“This is just the beginning of the steps to wiping out the Islamic jihadist terrorists. We have achieved our first mandates in Washington, D.C., and the next is to sanction and ban all politicians involved in the forceful disappearances, massacres, genocide, and also the kidnapping of Mazi Nnamdi Kanu.
“Kidnapping Mazi Nnamdi Kanu can’t stop Biafra, imprisoning Simon Ekpa can’t stop Biafra, as Nigeria can see now that BRGIE is gaining more momentum than before and the sky is our limit on Biafra independence,” BRGIE said in the statement.
Recall that last week, Trump threatened possible military action against Nigeria over the alleged killing of Christians.
Nigeria’s electoral body, the Independent National Electoral Commission, has announced November 6, 2025, for the Anambra guber election.
