Finland-based Biafra agitator Simon Ekpa has shared a video of an armed force he described as the Biafra Defence Forces in a training session.
He shared the video on X, saying the defense force will always defend "our women and children."
"We see you but you can’t see us! The defense of our women and children is a must. Biafra Defence Forces, Jaguar Battalion," Ekpa wrote in a post on X.
In the video, some armed Nigerians could be seen in training gear while wielding the Biafra flag.
His post has generated reactions from followers of Ekpa.
This video comes after Ekpa had said adequate arrangements had been made to host the
Declaration of the Restoration of Independence of Biafra Convention, 2024.
In a statement on October 25, he invited Igbos all over the world to the convention.
According to him, the convention, which is slated to be held from November 29 to December 3, 2024, in Lahti, Finland, is part of the fundamental rights of all Biafrans to self-rule.
Ekpa, the self-styled Prime Minister of the Biafra Government in Exile, noted that over 50 million Igbos have legally voted in the Biafra referendum in recent months.
"On behalf of the Biafra Government (BRGIE), we are happy to invite you to the Declaration of the Restoration of Independence of Biafra Convention (DRIBC 2024), which will be held in Lahti, Finland, from the 29th of November till the 3rd of December, 2024.
"All arrangements have been adequately made by the Biafra Government (BRGIE) for your accreditation to the event."
