Those of us who were raised in the East can discuss such issue than those who were raised outside the East.

I am sure you are writing this from Lagos or Abuja.

We from the East will decide our own matters.

On why Arewa youths who recently gave the Igbo a quit notice has not been arrested even when their offence is similar to that of the IPOB leader, he said, “Which of the offences is worse? Is it the one that wants a separate state for itself and breaking away from the country or the one that gave the quit notice and says some people should leave a part of the country?”

Lol.

Arrest the people who want to separate from coddled terrorism and social challenges no one can control. The separation itself is the worse offense.

This guy is a lawyer?

But seriously is any one in doubt that this Obla of a man is STUPID (I say this without any intention to sound abusive). How easy is it for people to lose their minds and integrity just because of a perceived need to impress some other people? The agitation for secession didn't even start a decade ago...so what is all that bullshit talk about 'because Buhari is in power'. The man is such a FOOL!

Which yeye constitution?

Can one man sit in his house and write constitution for a country with many nations?

Nigeria constitution is an illegal document. It will bow to the UN an Internatioanal Law.

For as long as Nigeria try to avoid referendum, knowing fully well the result will not be in their favour, they will continue to face international disgrace such as election boycott and many more to come.

For many years they did not only marginalise Igbo politically but also economically.

We have no deep seaport in the whole SS/SE, no International Airport, yet it is our resources they use to build Lagos and Abuja.

Now they cannot persuade the eastern electorate to vote in favour of Nigeria, so dey are coming with flimsy excuses.

Inasmuch as I don't have issues with self-determination of any group whatsoever, are you completely sure about the bolded? My doubts are based on sentiments from friends who are Igbos living outside Igbolands.

Igbos or Biafrans should seek political solutions rather than try to muscle their way through a referendum. And what better time to lobby the national assembly to amend our laws in their favor, seeing how the executive branch of govt and the legislature are at loggerheads. I have a feeling Osinbajo will assent such laws before an Obasanjo , Buhari, or even GEJ would. Just an opinion.

Fucking bastard nation with worthless people as leaders. I seriously despise Nigeria. Despise it alot. I'll continue to pray that country burns like it's currently burning until they divide it and I don't have to share a nation with bastards and greedy fools con politicians.


Heck look at his replies in regards to the "Arewa youths". Last I checked both is a terrorism in that their "constitution" he's speaking off. I wonder how this clown got his law degree. Complete illiterate by the looks of it

I am an Igbo man I want to control what beneath my land , so do I want ijaw man, ikwere man , Yoruba man , Fulani man to control what they have without sharing it with me , how do they want to share the aftereffects of quarter system they created in North, it can't be possible, biafra is bigger than one man, this is a movement it have come to stay, the earlier these mgbati people and their Almajiri allies understand this , the better for them...

Whether referendum is in the constitution or not, the issue is what the people want is what should be given to them.
The FG should gear towards arranging a referendum for everyone to have peace of mind and a sense of focus.

I think Okoi is trying to protect his interests and investments period.

Who is going to amend it? The nnamdi Kanu that wanna spill your blood for war while his children are in the UK all in the name of leaving Nigeria or the lawmakers that doesn't know weither to support biafra or continue making their money in the house of representatives? Go and get your facts right and read the constitution. If the referendum is going to take place, know that the constitution will only allow it if the whole nation participates. Now tell me who is going to lose?

They should rather channel their profound energy to meaningful and realistic goal instead of giving solidity to whirlwind..

But If they want to continue their exercise , they at liberty after all the Catalonia has been agitating for a secession for the past 300 years.

Your Hero Nnamdi Azikiwe was the one who vehemently stood against the inclusion of the right to Secession/Referendum in the Nigerian Constitution. So for another Nnamdi (kanu) to be agitating for secession which is father fought against only show that some people are generationaly confused.
Your Son Aguyi Ironsi was the one that collapsed the Regional govt. Into a Unitary Govt. So Igbos have no right to call for restructuring.

Are you an illiterate

The man says that the laws of the country forbids secession

Which proves that most of asking the Igbos to go to the National Assembly are political illiterates

It also proves that IPOB approach is the best since Nigeria don't want to abide by UN laws on Referendum

Bigotry won't let you see reason. The only people who can amend the constitution are lawmakers. Take your agitation to them so they can amend the constitution to support a referendum.

Perhaps you already know that your Igbo legislators have sold their loyalties for porridge. grin Your IPOB cannot achieve any rubbish referendum.
