The Biafra Charter is a formal instrument which at once constitutes: 1) Authority 2) Mandate 3) Contract 4) Memorandum 5) Terms of Reference 6) Reference for the matters which are addressed or referenced by the Charter, and according as such matters are addressed or referenced therein, granted by the Nation of Biafra, through the collectivity of the representatives of the communities and peoples of Biafra, to the functionaries and for the functions stated in the Charter. II. PURPOSE of Charter: 1. The primary purpose of the Charter is to establish an enduring National Structure, Governance structure and Basic Code of Conduct for the people and the functionaries, as directed by the peoples of Biafra; which contribute to and inform a future National Constitution. 2. In addition, the Charter mandates the immediate formation of a Provisional Government of Biafra (BPG) to serve the Nation and People of Biafra during the period that Biafra is under the occupation of Nigeria. III. ORGANIZATION of Charter: This document is sectionalized into: A. Biafra Charter Authorization B. The Federal Structure of Biafra C. The Charter Constituting the Government of the Federation of Biafra D. The Declaration of Nine Basic Laws E. Amendments A. Biafra Charter Authorization Whereas the Peoples and Nation of Biafra and their land and property find themselves under physical, sociologic, political, economic and psychological subjugation by the State of Nigeria since 1967, a "state of occupation," by Nigeria, of Biafra, has existed and continues to exist. Unwilling to continue to live under such stifling servitude while suffering such indignities as are inappropriate for human beings, determined to exercise the natural and legal rights to Freedom and Liberty, NOW, therefore, We, the Peoples of the Federation of Biafra have RESOLVED to actualize, renew, re-affirm and continue with the Declaration of Biafra Independence of May 30 1967, with all the implications thereof. In re-affirming the Independence of Biafra, the Peoples and Nation of Biafra make neither war, nor peace, with the State or peoples of Nigeria; rather, we exercise a Natural right, a Popular right, a Political right, and a right supported by United Nations Organization Charter and International laws—the right of Self Determination; in the certain realization that only the effective exercise of Self- Determination by the Peoples and Nation of Biafra will end the state of occupation and subjugation by Nigeria of Biafra. In furtherance of this exercise, the Biafra Charter, a formal organ of the People and Nation of Biafra, lends authority to, and issues a mandate for, the creation and formation of a Biafra Provisional Government (BPG).

1. BIAFRA PROVISIONAL GOVERNMENT
(BPG)
I. MANDATE of BPG:
1. to create, form, operate and manage a
Provisional Government for and by the Peoples
and Nation of Biafra; such government:
2. to function, in the meantime, as a bona fide
government of Biafra in the manner of legal,
customary and decent governments;
3. to secure the Freedom and Liberty of Biafra
and its peoples from occupation by Nigeria,
based on Self Determination paradigm and
principles, with all haste and by all means
necessary;
4. to represent the Sovereignty and Interests of
Biafra and its people in the Region and in the
World at large;
5. to project the Sovereignty, Independence
and Humanity of Biafra and its people at all
times;
6. to constitute a Transitional Governance of
Biafra (TGB) immediately after liberation of
Biafra from Nigeria for a specified and finite
duration not to exceed four years, pending the
formalization of Biafra State structures post-
occupation and post liberation.
II. STRUCTURE of BPG:
The BIAFRA PROVISIONAL GOVERNMENT shall
consist of 2 arms:
1. A Biafra Government in Exile (BGIE), based
outside of Biafra
2. A Biafra Government within Biafra, to be
known as "Biafra Shadow Government" (BSG)
Both arms shall function in tight coordination,
and in harmony, with the BGIE in the apex
role.
III. FUNCTION of BPG:
The sole function of BGIE and BSG is to carry
out the Mandate of the BIAFRA PROVISIONAL
GOVERNMENT as stated in the Biafra Charter
Authorization.
1. BGIE shall respect existing laws of
International hosting countries in furtherance
of this Mandate.
2. BGIE shall respect international laws dealing
with Self Determination and Protection of
Human Rights and rely in particular on the
Geneva Conventions Protocol II.
3. BSG will work with our peoples at home—in
Biafra Territory; and in Nigeria (cognizant of
the State of Nigeria's occupational forces
foisted over our people), to keep alive and
project Biafra's Sovereignty and Independence
in accordance with the Mandate, and to
mobilize, organize and manage our people for
sociopolitical activism in order to carry out
our resolve for Self Determination.
4. At all times, BGIE and BSG functions are to
be well-coordinated, harmonious,
complementary and seamless.
5. Following the liberation of Biafra from
Nigeria, the Biafra Provisional Government
(BPG) (consisting of BGIE and BSG together)
shall form the nucleus of the TRANSITIONAL
GOVERNMENT of Biafra (TGB), under the
direction of the peoples of the Nation of
Biafra, in order to conduct the governmental
affairs of Biafra, guided by the Biafra Charter,
for a period not to exceed 4 years, during
which Biafra puts formal structures in place to
continue and to succeed as a Nation under a
permanent Constitution of the Nation of
Biafra.
IV. CONDUCT:
The conduct of the BIAFRA PROVISIONAL
GOVERNMENT shall, at all times, adhere to the
basic principles and laws of the Biafra Charter.
V. TERM:
The term of the BIAFRA PROVISIONAL
GOVERNMENT (BPG) shall last from now, May
30 2007 until Biafra is fully liberated from
Nigerian occupation. Immediately after the full
liberation of Biafra, the Biafra Provisional
Government shall transform into the
Transitional Government of Biafra (TGB) during
which Biafra sociopolitical and civic structures
shall be put in place, a period not to exceed
four years. At the conclusion of that period,
the Transitional Government of Biafra (TGB)
shall, unconditionally, cease to exist; and shall
be replaced by a duly constituted Government
of Biafra, following a Constitutional
Conference.
B. The National Structure of Biafra
1. The Structure of Biafra
Biafra shall be constituted of autonomous self-
governing, self-regulating entities called
“Provinces,” along with their respective
populations, who have mutually decided and
mutually chosen to create an umbrella
governance system called “The Government of
the Federation of Biafra,” otherwise known as
“Biafra,” to which these participating Provinces
give the power and authority, carried out
through the instrument of properly and
formally elected representation of the
Provinces, to constitute such “The Government
of the Federation of Biafra,” with all the
implications of “Government” thereof ;
including:
a. to represent, as a Nation, all the
participating Provinces in all areas where such
is required and is customary practice of
modern Sovereign and Independent Nations,

functional systems facilitating communication,
education, healthcare, energy supply, trade,

2. The Participant Provinces
The concept, use and practice of “Provinces” is
designed to ensure autonomy and respect for
every group; to encourage the unhindered
thriving of every group; to protect, preserve
and respect the right of ownership and
management by each group of its own natural,
material and socio-cultural resources; and to
ensure adequate and equitable representation
both locally and at the National level, thereby
retaining real power in the hands of the
communities.
a) The geographic sub-units qualifying as
“Provinces” and the criteria to be used will be
determined by the peoples of Biafra, conscious
of functional capability, practicality and
stability factors.
b) There shall be 11 (eleven) Provinces unless
and or otherwise amended by the peoples of
Biafra.
c) Membership of a Province shall be
automatic for all native peoples and other
residents of the Provincial community at the
time of creation of the Province;
d) Residence within a Province for at least one
year confers on one membership of that
Province
e) All rights of Citizenship of Biafra will be
respected and enjoyed by all
f) The Laws of Biafra shall take precedence
over the laws of Provinces.

D. Declaration of Nine Basic Laws
1. Identity
The identity of each individual is traceable
through the mechanism and family of human
species, the larger family or circle of the
universe, to an ultimate Original Principle
which may be personified or personalized in a
manner that affords the most meaning to the
individual. Therefore, the individual is seen as
a direct expression of that Original Principle;
the Charter shall not allow, respect or support
any law or laws, which by their nature or
application or implementation, diminish or
militate against this attribute and identity of
the individual.
2. Rights
[A] The basic and original rights (Fundamental
Rights) of an individual are not earned and not
assigned but naturally accrue to the individual
by virtue of the fact of the individual's identity
as recognized above, whence such rights
derive. The Charter shall not allow or respect
any arrogation resulting in the deliberate or
calculated curbing or denial of such rights.
[B] The tangible and material aspects of these
rights include, but are not limited to:
I) Freedom and Liberty
II) Life and Existential Fulfillment
III) Knowledge, Education and Enlightenment
and their application
IV) Evolution and Creativity
V) Ownership and Entrepreneurship
3. Laws
[A] The goal of Laws is to set common
standards and common reasonable boundaries
governing relations between or among
individuals or parties for their mutual benefit.
[B] It is self-evident that all laws are
constructed by human beings and for human
beings, and are designed to deal with human
perceptions, conflicts, uncertainties, anxieties
and vulnerabilities.
[C] Since laws reflect changing human needs,
human understanding and perceptions, laws
are not to be static, but are to be reviewed
and revised accordingly, always with the goal
of protecting the basic and original rights of
the individual and respecting the individual's
inviolable identity as declared above.
[D] Laws shall be made by the collectivity of
the people to reflect, not necessarily the
majority or the minority, but the best
judgment of the people and the highest
understanding of their identity and
fundamental rights as declared above. In doing
so, the people shall devise and design and
revise as necessary the ways and means and
mechanisms of making laws in order to suit
them and their needs.
[E] No laws shall be imposed or foisted on the
people by any institution or persons or
principalities or by any other arrangement. The
people shall make their own laws by whatever
mechanisms they choose, and ratify such laws
by whatever mechanism they choose, and live
by those laws.
[F] It shall never be the goal or objective of
any law or laws to make or force on a perfect,
crimeless society because human behavior is
never collectively or even individually perfect,
no matter what the accepted norms are. The
design of laws and the prescription of
consequences of breaking laws shall be guided
by this understanding in order to avoid placing
undue burdens and obnoxious oppression on
the law-abiding society.
[G] The Charter of the government of Biafra
may be amended according to rules set by the
People; but shall not be suspended for any
reason; EXCEPT in times of imminent threat to
the security and existence of the nation, and
only by decision of Nations Chamber, and for
specified periods not to exceed 60 days,
renewable in 6o-day tranches at the discretion
of the Nations Chamber; at the request of the
Prime Minister. The situation devolves back to
the original Charter should renewals not be
granted, or in any other circumstance
otherwise.
4. Governance
The people shall choose how they will govern
themselves. Such governance will always
function in such a way that it is transparently
obvious that in deed and in fact, the people
are governing themselves, by themselves. The
fact that the people choose a mode or
mechanism to effect governance shall never be
construed to mean the ceding or handing over
of the function, instrument, authority and or
power of governance to that mode or its
agents and agencies. Such agents and agencies
serve only at the discretion and pleasure of the
people, and wield as much power as delegated
by, and on behalf of the people, ready to
relinquish such at the command of the people.
Under no circumstances shall the ownership of
the power and other trappings and attributes
of governance, and governance itself, leave the
people or be taken from the people.
5. Government
[A] The people may choose "Government" as a
modality and agency to carry out the powers
of governance. Such Government becomes a
service whose master is the people, whose
terms are determined by the people; a service
rendered for the people and to the people,
functioning at the pleasure of the people, for
as long as the people desire its services. No
Government shall be, or shall act as a master
over the people, or a master of the people.
Above all, no Government shall be independent
of the people, or "set itself apart" from the
people, or set itself as a parallel process or
entity with regards to the people. No persons
or agencies working in Government shall "rule"
over the people or rule the people, or arrogate
to him/her/itself any powers or authorities of
rulership of the people or over the people; but
such must at all times be servants of, and
subordinate to, the people, where full
accountability and responsivity are required at
all times.
[B] The people shall determine the form of
Government that suits the people, consistent
with the principles declared above, and their
options shall not be limited to prevailing styles
and forms around the contemporary world.
[C] The sole purpose of Government is to
facilitate, within the authority, power and
resources allocated to it by the people, in
every manner feasible, the growth,
development and fulfillment of the people in a
safe, secure, healthy and just environment.
6. Secularity
[A] The Nation of Biafra is founded on the
Original Identity Principle which declares the
self-evident: that the individual is an
expression of the ultimate Original Principle,
with Whom or with Which the individual
shares and enjoys a unique, unalterable
relationship. It is up to the individual to
personalize and or personify this relationship
according to the individual's understanding.
[B] As such, the Nation as a collective does not
endorse any particular religion, and freedom
of religion-choice, association and worship is
guaranteed. The supreme laws that regulate
and arbitrate interactional behavior and
transactions among citizens of Biafra shall at
all times derive from the Nation's constitution,
regardless of the parties' religious affiliation.
[C] The Nation of Biafra does not recognize as
Religions institutions that propagate hatred,
bigotry, racism, sexism and inequality of
human beings as their primary doctrine; nor
does it recognize as religion any institutions or
institutional practices which do not recognize
the fundamental rights of the individual as
declared above, or which as a matter of
doctrine violates those rights. The Nation of
Biafra does not recognize as Religions
institutions which preach or practice coercion,
including forced conversions or forced
membership. No exceptions shall be made just
because of the acceptance or classification of
such institutions as religions elsewhere.
7. Responsibility of Citizenship
The prime duty and responsibility of every
citizen is to know, respect, protect, and to
defend the fundamental rights, as declared
above, of other citizen(s) and of himself or
herself, all citizens being equal and treated
equally, without exception. A huge part of this
duty is to make all efforts to ensure that the
government and governance are under the
direct control of the people at all times, and
not the other way around. It is the supreme
duty of the citizenry to own and exercise the
Sovereignty of the Nation and not cede such to
the "State" or to the government.
8. Property Ownership
The sanctity of rightful ownership is to be
preserved at all times and in all circumstances,
reflected by the respect of ownership rights-
whether it be physical property, natural
property, intellectual property, or any other
form or type of property; property of an
individual, group(s), institution or
organization; or communal, community or
government property. The rights of ownership
of property include but are not limited to:
control, maintenance, management and
disposition. Under no circumstances would
Government violate such rights; rather,
Government will use its instruments to
determine, validate and or assign rightful
ownership in case of dispute or doubt; and to
enforce laws, which respect and protect these
rights.
9. International Relationships
The People, through their government, shall
determine the relationship of the Nation of
Biafra with other Nations and States of the
world. There should be no incongruity between
the attitude of the Peoples and their
government towards any other Nation. Biafra
recognizes and respects the rights of other
individuals from other Nations; and the
International rights of such Nations; and
expects the same in return. Biafra has a strong
preference for mutually peaceful inter-national
relationships.
E. Amendments
This Charter may be modified or amended
when necessary by 3/4 vote of the Peoples
Council and 3/4 vote of the Nations Chamber.
IV. Affirmation and Approval
This Charter is hereby authorized and affirmed
by the approving hand of Biafran Leaders from
the Diaspora and the Territory of Biafra
indicated by the stroke of their signatures on
the date of approval by each signer. The
Charter shall come into force immediately
upon approval.

A cursory comparison of this and the Nigerian Constitution,1999 already have this charter beating that basic law hands down.
First,it's not cumbersome not filled with unnecessary fribbles as one would find in the Nigerian Law.
Second,it's such that citizens can easily go thru all it sections n memorize the important parts,unlike the Nigerian Law that has one continually consulting its pages to know what's said about what.
More important,in my opinion,is the absolute protection and justiceability it gives to God-given rights of the people,that cannot be taken away nor abridged.Unlike the document we currently operate with.

Nice one from biafrans in diaspora...
