About Biafra | About Biafraland | About Biafra Free State | About the Republic of Biafra | About Biafra Land

Biafra , the Republic of Biafra or the Biafran Free State are (Officially Recognized) Terms (and Titles) - which all equally refer to the Innate National Identity of the Disputed Territory of Biafraland ; in the Eastern Part of West Africa.

Contrary to (Numerous) Highly Misconstrued Reports , the Grassroots Government of Biafra has always been Peacefully Functioning in one particular form or another , (ab initio) without interregnum ; irrespective of whether Biafra previously Existed as a Separate Sovereign Entity in it's Very Own Right , or Not.

Biafra is therefore still (Very Much) Alive and Well : It is (Most Certainly) Not an Unrecognized (or Failed) Identity (Let Alone a Dead One).

Sincerely , Faithfully and Respectfully ,

The Most Excellent Professor Obi GKB

State Counsellor of Biafraland

* While The United Nations (UN) globally sets the Criteria for "Internationally Protected Persons" , it is Solely up to the Relevant Governments (Themselves) to decide who Individually Qualifies for the Appropriate Positions which the UN has carefully set out in it's Aforementioned Diplomatic Criteria (Inter Alia).
