Recently, there has been a renewed struggle for the Republic of Biafra by members of the Movement for the Actualization of Sovereign State of Biafra (MASSOB) in Nigeria and outside the country.
Nearly 50 years after the Biafran War (July 6, 1967 – January 15, 1970) which almost destroyed the unity of Nigeria, its agitators have refused to give up the struggle.
It constituted the former Eastern region of Nigeria and was inhabited principally by Igbo (Ibo) people. Biafra has been commonly divided into four main “tribes”: the Igbos, the Ibibio-Efiks, the Ijaws and the Ogojas. If finally granted just like the South Sudan, these are the likely States that may be ceased to be in Nigeria:
Abia
Anambra
Akwa Ibom
Bayelsa
Enugu
Ebonyi
Imo
Delta
Rivers
Parts of cross River
Igbanke in Edo and
Parts of Benue state.

See una life?
You think the Ijaws likes the ibo? If they did, the fight would have been worn.
Isaac Boro comes to mind.


I'm no Tribal Bigot, I love everyone and not partial, but I love speaking the truth.

Ibos are too covetous.

can this dream come to reality is the question we Ibos should ask ourselves.... the reason why I asked this question is that our so called governors and De claimed representatives are against this issue... why can't they come out openly and break the spell if it is a spell.... and so many reasons behind this.
.... am watching....

The reason for ceding, lets be honest is because you want to be your own leaders and in the broader sense autonomous control of your resources.

Good... I hope for peace, you guys are allowed to cede.

Seceding and secede, you mean.

What you mentioned above is not what led to the declaration of the Independence of the Republic of Biafra.

Go and read about why the Republic was declared.

Google is your friend, sir.
