Radio Biafra Hits Airwaves

A radio station which purports to show solidarity for the Biafra struggle has hit the airwaves in Rivers state.

The strange station, ‘Radio Biafra,’ as it is known, operates from an unknown location with the frequency of 88.0 FM.

According to Dailypost, the radio station has only one anchor called the Director, who refers to the listeners as the Indigenous People of Biafra.

The anchor in his broadcasts often castigates both the current administration and the incoming one. He also castigates the Northern and Western Nigeria for living fat on the resources of the Biafran people.

Prominent persons like Minister of Finance, Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala, and Oba Akiolu of Lagos State have also been lambasted during live broadcasts.

The Director in one of his sessions attacked Okonjo-Iweala for what he described as, ‘economic lies.’ 

He rubbished the minister’s comments that President Goodluck Jonathan, was leaving a solid economy behind, accusing her of telling lies to promote the Jonathan-led administration.

Meanwhile, the ‘Republic of Biafra’ was a secessionist state in South-Eastern Nigeria, pushing for recognition during the Nigerian civil war led by the late Ikemba Nnewi. Odumegwu Ojukwu.
