dc.description	The renewed demand for Biafra by lgbo people is a rejection of their post-war socio-political and economic condition in Nigeria. Through the processing of primary data, the paper examines this reinvention of lgbo nationalism. It looks at its linkage with the 1999 democratic transition in Nigeria, its implications and management by the government. The paper concludes that the renewed demand for Biafra is caused by perception of inequities and injustice in the distribution of power and resources among the lgbo. Hence a deliberate effort to correct these social problems car, assuage ethnic tensions and presumption of political violence in Nigeria
