No fewer than 3 videos have been
seen on the online video sharing
platform, YouTube, in which some
Igbos denounced their citizenship of
the country and declared their
allegiance to Biafra. However the Nigeria Immigration
Service (NIS) has, warned that such act
is criminal and attracts a jail term. Deputy Comptroller Ekpedeme
King, the public relations officer of NIS,
in reaction to the development in an
interview with Sahara Reporters on
Saturday, October 24, said the service
was not aware of anyone tearing their passport.
He said there is a new Act called the
Immigration Act 2015 which states:
“Altering existing travel documents
renders the holder on conviction of a
two million naira fine and/or
imprisonment for a term of three years.” In one of the videos, a man introduced
himself as Emenike Michael Nwofor. He said: “My names are (sic) Emenike
Michael Nwaofor. I’m from Nnewi in
Biafra land; when there was Biafra,
there wasn’t anything called Anambra
State. I would refuse to add that name
called Anambra State to it. I am from Nnewi, the former Enugu State. “I am living here in Bordeaux
(France); I am an asylum seeker in
Bordeaux. I have been around
Bordeaux for a year plus and we have
been able to gather the Biafran family
here in France; we have been able to register with the government of
France as indigenous people of
Biafra.” After a long speech, he subsequently
brought out his Nigerian passport and
tore the pages. In another video, a man, who spoke in
Igbo and French, tore his passport
while using derogatory words on the
government of Nigeria. The public relations officer of NIS also
said: “Those who mentioned their
names, if we find out that they tore
their passports, will be taken to court.
A process has to be followed.”

if they like let them also tear their chests open and not only their Nigerian passport, IPOB remains a nuisance and is already a failed project. You fools should stop making it look like all Igbos are IPOB. I am Igbo and I have interracted with many Igbos around me and none is in support of this nonsense. All we want is a properous and peaceful country where there is fairness to all and not secession.
