InvestinOwerri:Your deductions are quite astute particularly the second scenario. But as regards the first don't you think it would be a master stroke and deft political manoeuvre if the East gets to parley with the south West, south south and willing groups in the middle belt so that the North can be isolated for once? This will take away their arrogance and something new might be birthed at the negotiating table for all Nigerians. There's enough meat in the pot for all its just that presently we don't hold equal spoons. |

Northerners want to keep Nigeria's unity because they see and use South South as their cash cow. I can't imagine what would had happened to this unity if this oil is situated in the North, the same born to rule mentality is what they would apply to tell your the OIl in the North belongs to the North and in fact they would have seceded from Nigeria a very long time ago. Northerners with their sense of entitlement will never allow restructuring of Nigeria, but those who make peace resolution impossible, invites violent resolution of the subject matter. 2 Likes |

IHEJIRIKAisBOKO: You have it totally wrong. When Czechoslovakia split into Czech and Slovakia, neither side had to move anywhere. When Scotland was agitating for independence and got a referendum in 2014, at no time did anyone ask the the Scots to move back home. There are agitations for Monaco to leave france, no french person is telling them to move back to Monaco. The reason why nobody is asking anyone to go home in these examples is because Czechs/Slovaks, Britain/Scotland and France/Monaco are all civilised people who recognise self deternination as a right of all people. The right of anyone to be independent is respected, the only thing people might differ on is the method of being independent. But in a backward country like Nigeria, people do not respect the right of a section of the country to self determination. They dont even know what sovereignty is. Thats why the average Nigerian thinks that secession is the same as packing up to go home. Im an Igbo man, it is my right to secede from Nigeria if I so wish. If Nigeria wants me to go back home, then no problem. The problem is asking me to go home while holding the keys to my house. That is not fair. The Northern youths should have joined the call for the independence of Biafra before asking Igbos to go. How can someone be practicing 'one Nigeria' while asking Igbos to go? Grant Igbos their country then tell them to go, not hold their independence and tell them to go, where will they go when they dont have a country? This crazy. You Nigerians deny us Biafra and you tell us to go? Nna, someone needs to explain this logic to me. 5 Likes |

Nigeria is an artificial construct of British colonialism. It was a nation composed of an amalgamation of many different, ethnically diverse tribes. South was always especially different because its people are mostly Christians. The rest of North is Muslim mostly and born to rule mentality . 5% don't want to became second class citizens in their country. Biafra get ready freedom is coming soon tomorrow

HiddenShadow: That your papa was a fraudster who scammed Nigeria that he wanted to leave. Nigeria let him but then he grew pompous and began another campaign to conquer Nigeria then, world powers had to stop him because he was disrupting their peaceful business in the region. As a result your papa led many people to their doom and many others were starved to death. You better just stick to one Nigeria Biafra as been proven times without numbers to be a scam.

IHEJIRIKAisBOKO: It's like you go on every thread that talks about this ultimatum and paste this epistle of yours...smh Please, give me one good and sensible reason why the Igbos should leave the North because of this ultimatum. If all the Igbos leave the North, will it bring about Biafra? Will that make the federal government to call a referendum? Will that automatically mean Nigeria has disintegrated? Sometimes I wonder why people are so petty! Igbos leaving the North in totality still doesn't guarantee nothing! Until something is done that legally disintegrates this country, nobody has any right to give anyone quit notice! In all the agitation for Biafra, I can't remember the Igbos giving northerners any quit notice, because that in itself doesn't guarantee anything! |

kingzizzy: Please leave those uninformed people to go about displaying their skewed sense of reasoning. As if asking Igbos to leave is tantamount to disintegration. The only time I am going to take the North serious, is, if they go out and protest asking the government to call for a referendum and split the country, just like the Biafrans have been doing all over the world... Asking people who are still legally citizens of a country to leave one part of the country is being silly! |

LaClicKLaBenDin: With many examples in history you are still not aware that true Biafra can't be achieved with Igbos in other parts of the country? The same reason Germany couldn't be split successfully into East and West during the WW2 and the same reason there's always tension between North vs South Korea while alien powers use them as bullet shields and pawns. Do you want that for Nigeria? I say together we stand |

I once commented on the political miscalculation of IBO's in Nigeria n was insulted,but the bitter truth is the IBO's are not calculating deeply,for instance in this quest for Biafra the south south minorities have not been won over meaning Biafra will simply be box in as a complete landlock country like Lesotho in south Africa n things will get worse for them,the northern Hausa/Fulani Muslims too should not fool themselves about one north,all in all,total restructuring is what we all need,buhari need to be educated pls. |

At the end, we came up with a position paper which we presented as the Kaduna Declaration in which we primarily called on the authorities and the international community to step in to formalise the actualisation of the dream of a people who say in words and in action, and the whole nation appears to concur, that they are Biafrans not Nigerians |

Kanu's IPOB has done great disservice to d Igbo cause. d UN & other countries in d civilized world would never support Kanu's misadventure. d declaration on principles of international law adopted by d UN in 1970, declares dat there are no legal grounds for d kind of violent secession dat Kanu advocated thru his YouTube video & radio Biafra. Pls note dat at least half of all modern states in d UN have emerged thru conquests or amalgamation & if we are going to try to eliminate or correct all historical injustices through violent secession, d modern world would be dragged into a bloody large scale war. There is a diversity of choices dat d UN supports & which makes self-determination possible but not violent secession as advocated by Kanu. Unfortunately Kanu chose d treasonable path of violent secession. |
