The calls and protests by the Indigenous People of Biafra and other
such groups, received some attention in the British House of Commons. In
a motion called Early Day Motion 808 and titled Biafra
Independence, Elliott, Tom moved a motion that urged the British
government to support the bid for the creation of a Biafra Republic by
urging the Nigerian government to conduct a referendum.
The motion which was supported by Kinahan, Danny read “That this
House recognises the calls for the independence of territories that
constituted the Biafra Republic; acknowledges the Biafran issue could be
improved with the co-operation of the Nigerian government by offering a
referendum; and urges the Foreign and Commonwealth Office to use its
diplomatic strength to assist in the resolution of this matter.”
