This should serve as a pointer to the fanatics and zombies of "one Nigeria". Referendum is a democratic instrument of letting people decide their sovereignty. No union is a permanent thing, no marriage is final. Therefore, if any of the ethnic nationalities that Lord Lugard forced into the illegal Union called Nigeria in 1914, such as my fellow Igbos, want to leave as a separate country, they should also be given a referendum

Those making comparison
Did those that spearheaded the campaign antagonize or blackmail d reigning govt?
Do they have a 'Biafra' radio that primarily specialises in blackmailing
Did their Kanu foreign based and sneaked into d country?
Did d agitators of secesion call d UK a zoo?
Was their 'Buhari' insulted by d campaigners of secession?
Answer those questions and compare approaches

The reason why I'm always against this call for Biafra is just coz they were silent all through GEJ's tenure only to surface when power left the southern region..

This is what civilized people do.
They come together, brainstorm and decide to leave or stay by voting.
We saw the same with the Scottish referendum.
No insults, no name calling of other people and above all no soliciting for weapons
Good luck to the civilized people of UK - the world will always take them seriously.

fiizznation:
My friend, bother nobody with this Biafra gospel. Didn't you see how the UK conducted themselves in the most civilized manner? Did they threatened EU with war if they don't get their referendum? Did they go about cursing everybody in Europe? Where they staging silly protests, thereby constituting themselves as nuisance? These and many more are the questions you need to ask yourself.

You have representatives in the NA, the house of reps, you have governors, state assemblies, political elites, leaders etc. These are the people that should be at the forefront of your Biafra agitation and not some silly illiterates that are only good in using a pirated radio station to curse everybody

EPL will become less desirable in what way?

heskeyw:
My question is if they eventually leave EU, will EPL( premier league) still be participating in the UCL??(Champions league) cuz champions league is mainly for european countries!!!!!

martineverest:
u don't know what they have done to themselves.... The reasonable ones life Londoners,Scott and Irish voted against the move, but the ignorant rural Brits vote for breakup..... Redirect xpect Scotland, n.ireland to break up from UK.

True. lived in the UK in those years that EU migrants flooded the tiny island from poorer EU countries. They basically took all jobs that no one else would do. i saw africans and asians losing their survival jobs to EU nationals despite the fact that most of them couldn't speak a word in english, but they had an advantage cos they needed no work visa.

i watched as universities stopped funding non-EU nationals for msc and phd courses as they had enough applications from EU nationals. Jobs were exported to poorer EU nations cos of cheap labour, hence manufacturing industries closed down.

Highly skilled workers moved in from greece, spain, portugal, italy e.t.c to take top jobs in the financial industries, and unemployed highly skilled britons felt betrayed. Yet, the UK was one of the biggest contributors to the EU project. Germany is next. These two are the sole reason why the EU exist cos of their strong economies.

The prospect of turkey joining the EU by 2020 was the final nail on the coffin. An islamic country of over 75 million people where wages are as low as $2/hr. Alot of people were scared that the UK would become flooded by turkish migrants. lol.

English Premier league will no longer have relevance like before.

For security reasons, I think its better.

Why is your own interest in the football aspect?

The worth of club and players will drop

Nigerians, shaa, are some funny hypocrites.

Many followed the BrExit debate and the Palestinian question, even taking sides; buit mention Biafra, and they begin to spew their venom.
You talk about secession, and they begin to talk about war. Now, let me ask you - How many gunshots have you heard go off in the wake of BrExit?
For you to immediately liken secession to war, are you not indirectly saying Nigerians are simply too uncivilized to come together and discuss hard issues?

Many of these Nigerians take sides on BrExit, but support their hero's decision of unilaterally trashing the National Confab results.

Many of these Nigerians tweet #BlackLivesMatter on Twitter; but at the same time, support and justify Onitsha massacre and the killing of Shiites. Ain't it funny?

A sizeable number of these Nigerians are immigrants in civilized countries, enjoying their liberties; but at the same time, support the archaic and primitive human rights violations of their hero in the name of 'fighting corruption'.

Truly, hypocrisy is Nigeria's national ideology. And it is on steroids.

That is the power of democracy and having citizens with a functioning cerebral.
You don't know what is good for britain than brits themselves.

Candyrain:
I see some "one Nigeria" zombies viewing thread but too ashamed to comment.

Dismembering/restructuring of Nigeria next. If our colonial masters can do it, why can't we? Britain no longer have the moral right to say Nigeria have to stay as one.

results from Google survey show that most of people in support of the breakup don't even know y they should break up

foladara777:

All you people equating the EU to the Nigerian situation should do a little research and understand the difference. Nigeria is a federation, the EU is not. At best, the EU is a confederal system. A distinctive feature of federalism is d repudiation of secession. Do u see Texas having a referendum to secede from the US?

KevinDein:
yeah and the biggest hypocrites are actually the Igbos. The scream the loudest about wanting out but no group in the country migrates to live in other parts of Nigeria like Igbos do. If you really want out, start by moving back to your lands, no one is stopping you.
You don't see Britons migrating to other parts of Europe in large droves.
