President Muhammadu Buhari has warned that Nigeria will not tolerate Biafra, dismissing those canvassing the creation of Biafra from Nigeria as jokers who are simply toying with the nation’s security.

Buhari in an interview with Al Jazeera television during his recent visit to Qatar said:

“At least two million Nigerians were killed in the Biafra war. And for somebody to wake up, may be they weren’t born, looking for Biafra after two millions people were killed, they are joking with the security of the country. Nigeria won’t tolerate Biafra.”

He said although government could tolerate peaceful pro-Biafran protests, demand for the creation of Biafra is against the constitution.
