Black Marine, is a dreaded militant group linked to the Biafra Nations League (BnL), is said to have opened fire on the BIR in an attempt to intercept an oil vessel they were accompanying to the maritime border where Nigeria and Cameroon drill their oil. Eye witness account told Pillar Today that the militant group drove with two speed boats and first opened fire on the military, forcing the BIR to retaliate. The Biafra Nations League, BnL, whose operational base is in Bakassi Peninsula and Cameroonian have been battling for control of the region since it’s warning asking external forces including Nigeria and Cameroon to stay clear from the territory. Commenting, the BnL Leader, Princewill Richards who is happy with the various attacks, said “the fly that does not hear a word follows the corpse to the grave.

So IPOB has taken its terrorist activities abroad. IPOB is a stain on the Biafra struggle, these criminals are not nationalists or freedom fighters. |

Failed country. There seems to be war or some sort of fighting in all parts of the country. The fact that separatist groups have such extensive network that reach to the sea makes it easy for them to smuggle weapons and share Intel. Nigeria won't survive for too long with all these wars and crises everywhere. 5 Likes 1 Share |

TUANKU: Mumu, did you read the article at all? IPOB is one separatist group out of many. This group may be affiliated or have same goals but they're totally different from IPOB. IPOB's military wing is ESN and they don't operate in Bakassi. Almost every part of Nigeria is pissed off and they're angry against the state. 5 Likes 2 Shares |

TUANKU: Is Biafra fighting for independence from Cameroon? The answer is no. So why fight Cameroon instead of Nigeria? You see, you people should not digest every propaganda you read online. Cameroon is having its own separatist fighters which Is the English speaking part otherwise known as Ambazonia. They are not related in any way to the Biafra. Separatist fighters. The op is just being mischievous. 1 Like |

I have been following "Biafra Nations League" (BNL) for over 5 years now. What I observed is that most of their activities don't really make it to the Nigeria's mainstream Media maybe because Ipob activities overshadows all other Biafra Groups or because they actually don't operate on Nigerian territory. BNL I think was founded by 2013 in Bakkasi. They rejects Cameroonian govt from ruling over the peninsula and rather prefers the state of Biafra. They often attacks pipelines and clashes with the Cameroonian military. Members of the group are mostly Oron people and some Igbos. I have once heared Nnamdi Kanu talking about them. But i doubt if they has strong ties with Ipob. 3 Likes
