Nigeria separatist group Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) has sued U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken and Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin over the sale of attack planes. IPOB said the Nigerian government will use the warplanes to attack its supporters. United States-based constitutional lawyer Bruce Fein filed the case in a federal court in Washington […]

A supporter of Indigenous People of Biafra leader Nnamdi Kanu holds a Biafra flag during a rally in support of Kanu, who is expected to appear at a magistrate court in Abuja, Nigeria December 1, 2015. Kanu – an activist who divides his time between the UK and Nigeria, spreading his ethos on social media and Radio Biafra – was arrested on charges of criminal conspiracy and belonging to an illegal society.

Fein is seeking the court to direct Blinken and Austin to block the transfer of six A-29 Super Tucano aircraft to Nigeria’s air force and to seek the return of six that were recently delivered.He said IPOB “reasonably fear that the A-29 Super Tucano aircraft will be used imminently to kill or maim them physically or to destroy their property.”

Nigeria’s air force is awaiting the arrival of the second batch of aircraft, which are made in the U.S. by Brazil’s Embraer SA and Nevada-based Sierra Nevada Corp., in a deal worth $593 million.
