The Biafra issue isn't like the Catalonia or Palestinian issue. The worlds medias know about it and are pinning it all on "Bad governance". BBC said they are protesting for a "Better Nigeria", The economist said the protest was fuel by politicians and bad governance. They equally mentioned Boko haram and the militants.
The world are not really in sympathy with you, It is unlikely for you to even get your Biafra soon because they have been an unlikely change of government. Buhari just has to prove he isn't like the past leaders and the UN would shut your Biafra mouths.

1)Get a lawyer to help you interpret both the implicit and explicit meaning of the quoted below;

Superficially, they were sparked by the arrest of Nnamdi Kanu, the outspoken head of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB)movement, and director of Radio Biafra, a pirate station. But the grievances run deep. Nigeria did not exist until British colonialists drew a line around hundreds of fractious ethnic groups dominated by the Igbo in the east, the Yoruba in the west, and the Hausa-Fulani in the north. The country’s regions have jostled for power ever since. Predominantly Igbo protesters have not forgotten that tens of thousands of their people were killed BEFORE Biafra unilaterally declared independence in 1967
.

2)Boko haram was mentioned as a warning to buhari of what may most likely happen if NNamdi were to get a scratch...

3)Militants were mentioned as a warning too of more impending danger for tomorrow...

4)Sometimes it is good you drop your prejudiced lens while reading so as to aid comprehension... thanks
