… describes govt act as wrong signal to investing public
… calls for the immediate sack of ACTDA boss, Onuko
The Biafra De Facto Customary Government (BDFCG) has called on the victims of the demolitions in Enugu and Anambra States to contact the group for necessary actions, saying that such malevolent actions; without following due processes, should not go unpunished.
It described the demolition by individuals purportedly acting as agents of the state governments as appalling, barbaric, unacceptable and against the principles of justice, and one that has also sent wrong signals to the investing public.
BDFCG, in a statement signed by its Spokesperson, Prosper Odinga, said the claims by government agents as the basis for the demolition of the over 20 buildings are unfortunately mischievous, adding that elsewhere, the government builds houses for the masses in a planned, ordered and coordinated manner, as against Nigeria wherein government agents collect bribes, supervise corruption and impunity, and at the same time, turn around to maintain law and order in the form of demolition of buildings at the expense of investors.
They charged Governor Peter Mbah to arrest all those behind the wicked act and expose their under dealings before the public to serve as lesson to others.
In Anambra, the Pro-Biafran group noted that the Member representing Awka North and South Federal Constituency, Prof. Lilian Orogbu, has condemned the demolition and burning of traders’ shops and goods by enforcement team from the Awka Capital Territory Development Authority (ACTDA), and called for the immediate sack of the Managing Director, Mr. Ossy Onuko, saying that several reports have shown that he does not have the right frame of mind to serve in any public office.
It questions why the entirety of properties in Biafraland have not been digitized, and emphasized the importance of ensuring that proper procedures are followed, saying “it is disheartening to see land speculators duping people in Biafraland when there is a government in place”.

BDFCG Stands Against Wicked Demolition Of Houses In Biafraland.
BDFCG Stands Against Wicked Demolition Of Houses In Biafraland.
The Biafra De Facto Customary Government (BDFCG) vehemently condemns the appalling demolition of citizens’ properties in Enugu and Anambra states, orchestrated by individuals purportedly acting as agents of the state government. This barbaric action is unacceptable and goes against the principles of justice and fairness.
Upon investigation, it has come to the attention of the BDFCG that the developers failed to obtain the necessary approvals. Furthermore, certain locations within the estate were allegedly being used as kidnappers’ dens.
The claims by the agents of the State Government as the basis for the demolition of over 20 buildings are not only mischievous but also most unfortunate. Elsewhere, the government builds houses for the masses in a planned, ordered, and coordinated manner. Here, government agents collect bribes, supervise corruption and impunity, and at the same time, turn around to maintain law and order in the form of demolition of buildings at the expense of investors. This wickedness must stop!
Governor Peter Mbah must arrest all those behind this wicked act and expose their under dealings before the public to serve as a lesson to others who see wickedness as a means of survival. The Governor must note that these mindless demolitions of buildings without following due process of law have sent wrong signals to the investing public, and he must act promptly and decisively. In addition, BDFCG calls on the victims of the demolition anywhere in Biafraland to contact us for necessary actions, as such malevolent actions, without following due processes, should not go unpunished in Biafraland.
The BDFCG is also aware that the Member representing Awka North and South Federal Constituency in Anambra state, Prof. Lilian Orogbu, condemned the brutal demolition and burning of traders’ shops and goods on the 18th of January. This condemnable act was carried out throughout the Awka Capital Territory Development Authority (ACTDA), under the supervision of their MD, Ossy Onuko. BDFCG calls for the immediate sack of Ossy Onuko as several reports reaching BDFCG indicated that he does not have the right frame of mind to serve in any public office.
BDFCG questions why the entirety of properties in Biafraland have not been digitized, emphasizing the importance of ensuring proper procedures are followed. It is disheartening to see land speculators duping people in Biafraland when there is a government in place!
We urge the victims of bad government to reach out to the BDFCG, as we stand committed to ensuring a just, free, and fair society where every man and woman are treated equal before the law.
