Enugu Government House was recently attacked by gunmen and Biafra Zionist Federation (BZF) claimed responsibility for the attack.
In a recent telephone interview with reporters, the Leader of the group, Onwuka is threatening to stage another attack and this time with a well armed team, adding that it will be extended to Owerri, the Imo State capital.
"We are going again to the Government House, Enugu. This time around, we will be fully armed. We must take our headquarters from Nigeria," he said
The leader who is a British trained lawyer said the group is aiming to reclaim Biafra’s independence and the world powers were behind their actions but he did not mention the name of the world powers.
He also warned that any attempt to arrest him would spell doom for Nigeria.
Onwuka said they succeeded in hoisting the Biafran flag in Enugu government house which is the epicentre of the Biafran federation, even though it may have been removed.
There were strong indications yesterday that the BZF next point of call is the Imo State Government House.
However, the Movement for the Actualisation of Sovereign State of Biafra (MASSOB), has warned splinter groups agitating for the realisation of Biafra Republic to desist from violent measures that may further endanger the life and property of Biafrans, adding that they are committed to Biafra but through peaceful means.
