Why do you still want continued integration of south east in Nigeria? They are rebels. They are confusionists and related crime oriented. Why would you associate your life and that of your dear generation with terrorists Biafrans? I need your candid enlightenment.

My very simple question.

Has the SouthEast leadership asked to be separated from Nigeria, just like the Scots, Catalans and Kurds have done?

I mean leadership even as low as the local government level?

I cannot be debating a matter that is yet to exist.

Indeed the federal government over the years have failed in their responsibilities, also the state governments.

We cannot be debating over a separation when no recognised entity has requested for such.

When IPOB is tired of being irrelevant, it will embrace the democratic path to their claims to regional leadership and representation.

Only then can Nigeria begin to consider what is being demanded, by who, and on whose behalf.

When the US branded ISIS, Al Qaeda terrorist groups, was Nigeria's opinion requested so why must we seek theirs?

I already defeated you with my very sane and logical argument, referencing the legitimacy of the Catalan ambitions as opposed to the delusional ambitions of a terrorist group that is not recognised as representing anyone.

IPOB cannot stand a sane argument because your demands are already flawed from the root.

Is IPOB a democratic representative of the SouthEast that already have a democratic and constitutional government and representation?

Has any local government, or state government requested for separation?
Has any state assembly from the SouthEast raised any motion talkless of passing a motion requesting for separation?
Has the SouthEast not got legislators at the national assembly, who can talk and make any demand that represents the wishes of their constituency?

Dude, IPOB is a joke, and the sooner you stop comparing that joke to a regional government of Scotland, Catalonia or Kurdish Iraq, the sooner you will realise that a joke is meant for humour.

So I laugh in IPOB.
Sometimes I wonder how these people think. FFK, Kanu and co are only using Biafra to stay relevant in politics and get money. If anything breaks out these men will run out of the country. And who told him Catalonia referendum was approved. US, UK, Spain and the UN opposed it. Unlike Brexit that was approved by the British government Catalonia is not. So the igbos and their e-warriors better wise up. These men are only using our head. I wonder when the youth in Nigeria will take matter into their hands than rely on these fat belly thief's. Gone are the days when politics were ran by young men in their late 20s and early 30ss. Our youth now are more concerned with turn up and booze. No wonder that block head is typing rubbish

Who has requested for a separation in Nigeria?

If an autonomous democratic regional government that is recognised has failed, is it a joke group that will succeed?

Wishful thinking, that's all that comes out from your thought process.
You see millions of Biafrans daily asking for Biafra. But all you rely on is that the tiny set of Biafrans who are Eaters from the rot of Nigeria have yet to ask for Biafra in Nigeria's parliament.
You don't see that if the Eaters from the rot of Nigeria who claim to represent Biafrans ask for restoration of Biafra in Nigeria's parliament, they will be shunned or even have stones thrown on them by the parasitic set of Nigerians.

At one point, the UN shall be constrained to order for REFERENDUM ON BIAFRA. That's how smaller countries emerged from big but dysfunctional countries like Nigeria.

You suffer worse self-deceit with your belief that soldiers shall forever sustain one Nigeria for parasites through killing off dissenters and separatists.

You foolishly believe that Nigeria army shall for too long remain the instrument of the Sokoto/Kanem Bornu empire, as it is now.

The EU, Spain and others couldn't approve Catalonia's referendum because in a democratic environment in 1978, Catalonia's representatives and political parties participated in drawing up, voting for and approval of Spain's present Constitution; and the constitution was subjected to popular referendum to all Spaniards who voted and adopted the constitution.


In Nigeria, military dictators from the north progressively organized constitution conferences, supervised the conferences and approved Nigeria's present constitution, which was not subjected to any referendum before the dictators imposed the constitution upon all in one Nigeria. Therefore, Nigeria's constitution is not binding to any group going for separation referendum.

You reason like an anarchist who continues to wonder why the democratic and civilised world is not interested in your barbarism.

A people already have democratic representation. Is that too hard to percolate through your stubborn head into you brain?

Do you expect a democratic world or democratic UN or AU or EU or US or UK or Russia, to have any regard for a usurper group that is appealing to democratic graces to defeat an already democratic sovereignty? That there is democratic representation means there already exist the concept of self determination.

If Nigeria was not practising democratic government, any group can begin to advocate for the people. As long as there is an inclusive democracy in practise and there is democratic representation already existing, any other group claiming to speak on behalf of the people are just making noise and must be put down and decimated.

Why exactly is IPOB so insistent that only they will be rogues when Scotland and Catalonia and Kurdish Iraq demands are being championed by the recognised leadership of the people in question?

Are you then surprised that only IPOB has been described as a terrorist group that is threatening the public peace and established democracy within their own society?

When IPOB or other secessionist are tired of fooling around aimlessly, they will follow the democratic path to recognised leadership of their people then as a government, push for whatever they want to achieve, with either a positive or negative outcome.

Stop being a hypocrite and reason like you have a brain for goodness sake.

Balderdash!

The people may indeed have democratic representation but the Biafra supporters are not about the democratic institutions of Nigeria. They are not about Nigeria, period.

What the Biafran suppprters are about is the reversal of an illegal colonial exercise that was carried out in 1914 called amalgamation which saw the lumping of the Biafrans with 'strangers' without the consent of anyone.

The real usurpers of the peoples mandate to self determination is anyone who believes in the illegal union of Nigeria. If there was any justice in this world, Britain and Nigeria should apologise to Biafrans and pay them compensation for holding them and their lands captive since 1914 in the name of a colonial idea called Nigeria.

As I said before, it is not a must that the Biafran supporters must follow the path of Scotland or catalonia to get a referendum.

Using East Timor as an example, East Timor was a province of Indonasia, however, they agitated until the Indonasian government and parliament decided to give the people a referendum and East Timor became independent in 2002. It is not a must that a sepratist organisation must join the political process of the country in which they want to leave.

The IPOB agitation is actually working. Even the Arewa youth while issuing their quit notice also urged the Government to give Biafrans a referendum.

IPOB is not a terrorist organisation. An organisation with no arms and little or no record of violence cannot be a terrorist organisation as has been affairmed by the USA and the EU

Yes, Catalonia went against the constitution it participated with rest of Spain in a democracy to prepare in 1978, and voted for, adopted through referendum.

That's why it is having the obstacles from rest of the world.
No body voted in a referendum for Nigeria's constitution which was supervised by northern soldiers unarguably carrying AK47 rifles and dictating to the drafters of the constitution who the dictators either appointed or s(elected.

Regional leadership?

You know truly well that Nigeria was politically restructured by northern military dictators and gave undue political over-representation to the northern region, therefore, any southern politician who does not sing the tune of northern Nigeria's political class is automatically sieved off from Nigeria's political process.
That's how it's difficult for any political representatives from the south to go to Nigeria's parliament to ask for referendum or separation.
