Rubbish, dont fight the police, go fight the fulani herdsmen who has killed your people in great numbers.
If you believe in biafra then you will achieve it but not by voilence. If it is by fight, the civil war would had achieved it.
The innocent blood of the slain Uzo-Uwani and Umuchigbo villagers are crying for vengeance.
