Facts About Referendum On Biafra! by Goahead(m): 8:00pm On Nov 07, 2015
(1) Biafran agitation has nothing to do with
hydrocarbon crude oil deposits in Niger Delta. Imo,
Abia, Anambra are currently oil producing states in
Nigeria, with huge natural gas reserves not forgetting
the enormous untapped coal deposits in Enugu.
(2) Biafra is not land-locked. It has numerous access to
the sea, including through the River Niger.
(3) Biafra entire population is more than 35 million people
which is greater than the population of many advanced
countries in Western Europe, including Switzerland,
Luxembourg, Belgium, Holland, Austria....etc
(4) Biafra does not or in any form signify war,
violence, armed struggle or any sort of physical
confrontation. BIAFRA IS NOT WAR! It simply
means political, economic and socio-cultural freedom
from a feudalist State ruled by terrorists and Jihadists.
(5) Biafra is not a call for massive exodus to Igbo
land. Put differently, every Igbo or Biafran must not
live in Biafra land. Those who wish could still
maintain their residency wherever they are as well as
own properties anywhere in the world, including Lagos,
Abuja, Kaduna, Kano…etc.
(6) Independent and sovereign Biafra will never
translate to loss or forfeiture of landed properties of her
citizens in Lagos, Abuja or anywhere in Nigeria. There
are many domestic and international treaties,
conventions and laws that protects Assets of non-
citizens everywhere in the World, that will apply
appropriately.
(7) The NEW BIAFRA shall be a coalition of desirous
and willing ethnic nationalities in defunct Eastern
Nigeria and would never be a forceful annexation of
any unwilling ethnic nationality within its current geo-
political definition. Ijaws, Ogonis, Ibibio, Anangs,
Efiks, Ogojas, and host of other ethnic minorities shall
possess the privilege to decide whether to tango
politically with their Igbo brethren or go their own
separate ways or remain part of current structural
deficient Nigeriagrin
[8] Biafra is a train of peace and liberty. A desire for
liberation from institutionalised stumbling blocks like
quota system and federal character principles in
Nigeria's quasi-unitary society. It is a movement
against internal colonialism, tribal gang-ups, economic
marginalisation and political subjugation of Igbo and
ethnic minority neighbors.
(9) It has nothing to do with hate, bigotry or ethnic
chauvinism.
Just a desire to live in a healthy society where your
tribe, tongue, religion or creed does not define who you
are or how far you would go in your career.

This is what they always use to scare some people forgetting that Biafra and Nigeria are Ecowas members meaning free movement of all West Africans in West Africa.

Don't mind them, where were they during Ghana Must Go era? In our case, we will give them just 48 hours (2 days) to vacate our beloved zoo.

You have also taunt and disrespected the Yorubas enough. I admired their patience but i don't think your lives or properties would be safe in the South West if we indeed separate. You are not safe anywhere in Nigeria apart from the tiny overcrowded South East and that's even if a war didn't break out. All thanks to Nnamdi Kanu.

Of course you can burn them as that has been your handiwork for decades now. International law may not catch you too but this time the result will not be the same too. This time everything you burn down will count if you understand what I'm saying.
