The Biafra Nations League (BNL) may be demonstrating its might in Southern Cameroon, showing signs of taking over the southern Cameroon, and extending its hegemony into the Gulf of Guinea, including the Bight of Biafra on the Atlantic belt. The Biafra Nations League, accordingly, issued a strong warning to the government of Cameroon that the League will no longer tolerate the government of Cameroon executing any project in the Bakassi Peninsula.  The BNL also declared that the League has abolished names inscribed on towns and imposed on the residents of the territory by the Cameroonian government.

The National Leader of the Biafra National League,

Princewill Chimezie Richards, while in Abana, former headquarters of the Peninsula, defended the BNL members who pulled down the Cameroonian flag in the peninsula.  The Cameroonian Forces had, however, struck with heavy gunshots to forestall the hoisting of Biafra flag in the region. Princewill Chimezie Richards maintained that BNL has abolished the names of towns renamed by Cameroon such as Isangele, Idabato, Kumbo and Bamusso, saying that original names of the towns have been restored and remains the same.

The BNL national leader insisted that the group will not recognize Cameroon’s sovereignty over the Bakassi Peninsula, insisting that it is part of Biafra.

“We have a resolution known as Ekukunela Declarations, made in Ekukunela town of Ikom in 2016, and in that resolution, we declined endorsing colonial boundaries, especially, the Anglo-German Treaty which placed some of our people in Cameroon under British trusted territory.

“Whatever Greentree Agreement Cameroon has with Nigeria is between them and not between us and them.

“Biafra and Nigeria are two different entities. So, we the Biafran people do not recognize that nonsense.

“We have the mandate of the Bakassi people and, of course, BNL you hear today in Bakassi are the indigenes” Princewill Chimezie Richards declared.

Richards noted that Cameroon lied that BNL members attacked Cameroonians Forces in an attempt to hoist the Biafran flag. He maintained that the BNL leadership did not order any attack in the Peninsula. He, however, cautioned that there will be possible reprisals if BNL members are attacked by Cameroon.

The Cameroon government, however, debunked that the BNL has taken over Bakassi or overrun southern Cameroon.
