Pope Francis Meets and Sympathizes with Biafra Agitators in Italy, Urges Dialogue and Negotiation

-- --
The Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), that is protesting for Biafra's secession from Nigeria on Monday 29th February 2016, released the text of a Pope Francis' address to thousands of its members.

According to a statement released by the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), yesterday, Catholic Pontiff, Pope Francis, addressed thousands of IPOB members who gathered last Sunday at the Vatican City for the weekly Angelus, and cautioned their oppressors, the Nigerian government, its military, and their agents to repent and stop killing Biafra agitators or face the wrath of God that will be catastrophic.

IPOB Media and Publicity Officer, Emma Powerful, made available the text of the Catholic Pontiff's address exclusively to Vanguard, and disclosed that the Pope advised the Biafra agitators and the crowd that gathered at St Peter’s Square from the balcony of the Apostolic Palace to be patient in all they are doing, that God’s patience towards their oppressors is without limit but the time to end their oppression is now.

IPOB quoted the Pontiff to have said that "it is never too late to convert an oppressor to change from his evil activities, including murderous activities, but it is urgent, it is now, let them begin today to change from their oppression and killing of innocent people through all sorts of violent means, including the jack boot of the military."

IPOB disclosed that the Pope spoke on "invincible patience," explaining how God’s "unyielding concern for sinners" should provoke patience in us, asking if we have thought of God’s patience.

"Have you thought of His unyielding concern for sinners, how this should provoke patience among people, including governments, instead of killing people on slightest provocation or no provocation at all, let alone people who are protesting against unfair treatments or for something they feel is their right?"

IPOB said the Pope told them that God does not permit tragedies to punish sins but rather, that Jesus uses warnings that sinners will perish if they do not repent, adding that if the oppressors of peaceful agitators like the Biafra agitators in Nigeria fail to repent, the wrath of God will be catastrophic against them.

According to IPOB, the Pontiff welcomed the need to firmly and unreservedly focus on negotiations and dialogue between governments and agitators all over the world including Biafra agitators and the government of Nigeria, like it was done in Syria which has brought the current ceasefire in the country, involving government and rebel forces.

"I invite all to pray so that this window of opportunity can give relief to the suffering people and agitators and encourage the necessary humanitarian aid, and open the way to dialogue and much desired peace." he said.
