Why Uwazuruike Postponed Fasting, Prayer & Biafra Election
The prayer, fasting and election into the offices of the Biafra Independence Movement (BIM) have been postponed.

Vanguard reports that the indefinite postponement was announced on Monday, January 11, in Owerri, Imo state, by the leader of the group, Chief Ralph Uwazuruike.
According to him, the shift is to enable them make adequate consultations.
“The shift in the date for the fasting and prayer session, as well as the planned election, which more than 100 clergymen from the South East and South South geo-political zones are expected to participate, would enable BIM to make adequate consultation,” he said.
Uwazuruike stressed that they need to make adequate consultations and preparations before the next date for the event. He also promised that the programme would be made public.
“The theme of the prayer session, Give us Biafra, still remains unchanged, while Apostle Gregory Ashiegbu will anchor the prayer for us,” he added.

Speaking about the future election into the BIM positions, Uwazuruike said it would be different from elections conducted in the country. He noted that it would be an open ballot system unlike Nigeria’s closed ballot system.
Uwazuruike confirmed that Asari Dokubo the leader of the Niger Delta Volunteer Force, and Dr. Fredrick Fasheun, the founder of the Oodua Peoples’ Congress, were expected in Owerri for the event.
Earlier this month, a catholic priest Rev. Fr. Samuel Aniebonam was appointed the chairman of Biafra Independent National Electoral Commission (B-INEC)
Uwazuruike also announced that B-INEC would conduct and supervise the internal election in all the offices of BIM scheduled for February 22.
