President Muhammadu Buhari has been charged by the Biafra Nations League, BNL, to recognize Biafra as a separate Republic by hoisting the Biafra flag in Aso Rock on May 30 Biafra memorial day.

The National Leader of BNL, Princewill Chimezie Richard, made this call on Monday in Uyo, Akwa Ibom State.

Princeswill in the statement promised that Biafra would be a great ally of Nigeria economically as a former member of the Nigerian State.

He further stated that the crisis going on in Nigeria and Bakassi Peninsula area where BNL headquarters is could worsen if Buhari fails to adhere to the advice.
