Brother Peter Eke is just another smart Igbo man who is using “Biafra” to promote Igbo culture and make living for himself in his magazine or newspaper. The word “Biafra” should not become a taboo in Nigerian society as long as it use doesn’t promote violence, insanity, instability, and social disorder. DSS should read Mr. Eke past and present Biafra publications to attest that the paper is mainly to promote Igbo culture, genuine struggle, and Igbo businesses. But if the publication is meant to cause chaos, promote tribalism, and hatred, Mr. Peter should be arrested and jail for promoting civil unrest and promoting violence. Promoting violence in Lagos state is a serious moral issue is like Hausa promoting Sharia laws in Enugu or Yoruba promoting Oduduwa culture among Igbos in Inenwi, Anambra state. Mr. Eke Peter should be release in the absence of any evidence of violence, tribalism, and promoting hatred or civil unrest in his Biafra publications. Shikenah!
