The Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) Netherlands National Chapter, on Tuesday 17th July 2018, successfully carried out a protest against the Nigerian President -  Muhammadu Buhari, in front of the International Criminal Court (ICC) building at Hague, Netherlands. The World's Apex Court had invited him to it's Headquarters, as it commemorated it's 20th year Anniversary of the adoption of the Rome Statue as the supreme law upon which the Court is governed, to deliver keynote speech on the occasion. The invitation of such a tyrannical, genocidal and terrorism-inclined criminal, elucidated outrage both within and without Nigeria. This is a man that is presently under investigation associated with gross human rights violations by the ICC Chief Prosecutor, Madame Fatou Bensouda. Standing on this issue, the Netherlands National Chapter of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), in concert with the global family of the IPOB ably led by Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, staged a protest condemning the appearance of Buhari in such a reputable global event.




The protest was successfully conducted at approximately 500 meters away from the World Court Headquarters as directed on approval, by the Dutch Police who were right on hand to monitor proceedings. The Netherlands National Chapter of the IPOB, used the opportunity to make a strong registration of IPOB's displeasure over the invitation given to the serial killer. The Nigerian President supposedly, ought to be presently undergoing preliminary examination and investigation in the Hague, for at least, 131 cases lodged against him. The Netherlands National Chapter of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), described such a high profile invitation to an accused personality who under the tenets of civilised international laws, should have been arrested to account for numerous human violations, as the height of professional insensitivity of the management of the global court. Despite the short notice of invitation handed down to the Netherlands IPOB family, prompt and encouraging mobilization of members were effected for the protest as scheduled.

In his interview with the Family Writers Press International, the Netherlands National IPOB Coordinator, Mazi Ndubuisi Osuala direct from the Hague, emphasized that the protest was a huge success. He said that the IPOB protesters converged within the ICC premises for the protest two hours ahead of the arrival of the murderous Nigerian President, Muhammadu Buhari. Mazi Osuala further stated that the protesters conspicuously displayed banners with the images of IPOB members gruesomely murdered, maimed and injured by the Nigerian army and police in Biafraland during peaceful IPOB rallies, on the directives of President Muhammadu Buhari. The Netherlands IPOB National Coordinator stated that most of the dignitaries who graced the event from different countries of the world, recorded the petitions and complaints of the IPOB protesters with their gadgets. The protest was adequately relayed to the global audience for onward  analysis in different countries of the representatives.

In his submission, the Assistant Secretary of the Netherlands National Chapter of the IPOB, Mazi Uchechukwu Ofiaukam, expressed his appreciation to various IPOB families in Biafraland for their resilience and resoluteness in a hostile environment like Nigeria. He assured Biafrans back home that their  undeterred commitment to the Biafra restoration quest has really surprised and won the support of the world, associated odds notwithstanding. On his part, Mazi Ezeachi corroborated the position of Mazi Osuala, regarding the protest conducted by the IPOB Netherlands Chapter, under their stewardship. He emphasized that had they had enough time to plan for the protest, hundreds of IPOB members and sympathizers would have massively participated. The high points of the protest included:

* The rentage of counter protesters by the Nigerian government through her Netherlands Embassy of Nigerian nationals of other tribes and from neighboring Islamic countries. They equally stormed the venue and fruitlessly laboured to disrupt the IPOB protest with their deceitful chants "we are one, we are one, we are one". However, the Dutch Police decisively stopped them as the IPOB members reportedly insisted that they are never one as the renegade protesters were rented to represent Nigeria whilst they themselves represent Biafra. The enlightened and professional Dutch Police instantly ordered the Nigerian hired protesters to disperse as they have no prior approval to carry out such a protest.

* President Muhammadu Buhari looking furiously at the resilient IPOB protesters, left the ICC premises as he got properly humiliated before the global community by the IPOB protesters.

The heinous crimes committed against the Biafran people were brazenly exposed before the world through banners where those acts of cruelty and decimation were pictorially displayed.

* The arch-enemy of Biafrans, Muhammadu Buhari, in his disappointment and shame to vent his animosity, sent two suspected Security Operatives in his entourage to get back to the IPOB protesters, take pictorial shots of the  protesting Biafrans and also most essentially, obtain that of the National Coordinator of the IPOB Netherlands with his principal colleagues, for onward transmission to the Department of Security Services (DSS) back home in Nigeria for documentation. In the process, the suspected DSS officers threatened that the leadership of the Netherlands Chapter of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), must be hunted down and dealth with accordingly, anytime each of them touches down in Nigeria. But in a swift counter move, the IPOB Netherlands leadership, pre-emptively informed the Dutch Police of such threats and the Buhari "hunt dogs" were ordered to stop forthwith, their mission of picture taking without approval.

* The IPOB protest directly in front of the building of the International Criminal Court, was really strategic which attracted many journalists of Western world mainstream media, who were equally present to document proceedings of the ICC's 20th year anniversary. Such International Media Groups included Al-Jazeera, British Broadcasting corporation (BBC), France 24, amongst others. Some of the IPOB protesters were interviewed in the process.

* Culminating the events of the day, was the IPOB Netherlands Chapter's submission of a protest letter to the International Criminal Court (ICC). The content of the letter amongst other issues, highlighted the displeasure of Biafrans over the invitation of President Muhammadu Buhari to such a high profile gathering with even the pleasure of delivering a speech. The protest letter was received by the office of the Registrar of the Court via one of the Court Police Officers on guard. The registrar had fuly acknowledged receipt of the letter.

* The protesting IPOB family members thereafter, dispersed at exactly 2:30 pm local time, having successfully accomplished that mandate.

Bringing the interview conducted with the duo of Mazi Ndubuisi Osuala (IPOB Netherlands National Coordinator) and Mazi Uchechukwu Ezeachi (Netherlands IPOB Assistant Secretary), by the Family Writers Press, both principal officers in no mistakable terms, put the global community on notice that should anything untoward happens to any of them, the Nigerian government should be held accountable. They pointed out that in as much as they remain undeterred and resolutely resilient in the journey for the full restoration of the sovereignty of Biafra, it should also be on record, the death threat handed down to them by the agents of the Nigerian government.

They however eulogised the IPOB family members in Biafraland for their tenacity, despite the retinue of despotic and terroristic antecedents/onslaughts of the Nigerian government. They stated that without the unprecedented and unparalleled courage of the IPOB members in Biafraland carrying out the instructions/calls of the leadership, the evil government of Nigeria would have succeeded in it's relentless concoction of misleading narratives that it is the Biafrans in the diaspora that are solely driving the Biafra restoration struggle. They conclusively prayed for God's blessings upon the homebased IPOB families for their steadfastness. The onerous, highly professional and intelligent information gathering/dissemination prowess of the management and staff of the Family Writers Press were very inexhaustibly appreciated and encouraged.
