The members of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) in Italy have organised a peaceful protest in St. Peter’s square to meet Pope Francis on February 28, Sunday.
For the first time in history a major world leader Pope Frances greeted the pro-Biafran protesters.
He said: “I am greeting the believers from Gdansk, indigenous people of Biafra, students from Zaragoza, Huelva, Córdoba and Zafra, the young people of Formentera and the believers from Jaén.”
Biafrans have organized protests in many countries across the world but never such prominent officials address the issue of Biafra.
