Abuja Federal High Court admits
42 Biafrans to bail on Biafrans day


Titus Maduako Eleweke

A Federal High Court sitting in Abuja presided over by his Lordship Justice J.K. Omotosho had on Thursday admitted 42 Biafrans to bail.
According to the
lead lawyer to Indigenous People of Biafra IPOB, Sir Ifeanyi Ejiofor the suspects were arrested in Anambra state and brought to Abuja for trial.

He said his Lordship, in his well considered Ruling delivered admitted all these innocent people to bail on the day of celebration of fallen heroes of Biafrans.

He said that the bail will be perfected next week and the innocent Biafrans will reunite with their families.
Ejiofor said that they shall take adequate steps to ensure that the terms of the bail granted by the court are met as swiftly as possible so that these innocent men and women, can rejoin their families as soon as possible.
"Today, the 30th day of May, 2024, as we commemorate the death of our fallen heroes and heroines who died during the three years pogrom on Biafran soil, a Federal High of Nigeria sitting in Abuja per Hon. Justice J.K. Omotosho, delivered its ruling on the bail applications we filed and moved on behalf of 42 innocent Biafrans made up of Igbo youths, young women, mothers and fathers, who were arrested in Anambra in December 2023, and subsequently bundled to Abuja by overzealous Nigerian security agents.
His Lordship, in his well considered Ruling delivered moments ago, admitted all these innocent Biafrans to bail.
"Pertinent to reiterate that these innocent Biafrans were arrested in Anambra State by overzealous Nigerian security agents, whilst they were going about their respective legitimate businesses, and subsequently brought to Abuja and charged before the court in Charge No: FHC/ABJ/CR/8/2024, on a three count frivolous and unfounded charge of terrorism, on account of their alleged membership of IPOB.
We shall take steps to ensure that the terms of the bail granted by the court are met as swiftly as possible so that these innocent men and women, can rejoin their families as soon as possible.
We are also hopeful that all innocent Biafrans who are being held in various detention facilities across the country, will regain their freedom soonest.
May God continue to bless all Ezigbo UmuChineke,
Even as we continue to move!"
