Biafra Referendum And You: 5 Things Every Nigerian Must Know by Sanchez01: 4:58pm On Jul 03, 2017 |
Over the past six months, another word apart from restructuring that has kept popping up in the Nigerian media, is the word 'referendum'.https://www.naij.com/1112995-biafra-there-igbos-crossed-point-return-nnamdi-kanu.html |

It is no brainer that the whole country would vote should a referendum pull through. It would be no different from that of Spain vs Catalonia but the truth is that it would be quick and painless as Nigerians who have had enough would clearly vote yes. The South East would have what they want and everyone would be happy. Talk about a country surrounding another Fratermathy Efewestern 1 Like |

Biafra? Will not waste my energy on Biafra matters,as i see no need trying to talk sense into the heads of a people determined to create a nation where everybody is a trader. Can't wait for these parasites to go away since that is what they want. First,that posh area named Ozumba Mbadiwe in the Island,should be named M.K.O way. Inshort a referendum should be held today,and we in the West are ready to vote to let you guys go. And on behalf of everyone,i thank you guys for developing V.I,Lekki,Ajah,Festac and Magodo. Now please go back and develop your lands. 1 Like |

Adaowerri111:What zones are you referring to, the South-South? Let me explain this; the South and the East are not the same and do not share the same vision. while we understand the sudden love and attachment, a referendum would serve just a call and not encompass several calls. For example, 'Should Biafra be an independent country?' is the call. It could be yes, it could be no, but we all clearly know that Biafra is strictly an Igbo movement and the laughable positions given to some folks of the Delta within Biafra is nothing but obvious tactics to involve the region in the quest. Therefore the call would include questions such as that of the Catalan call. You should as well know that a Biafra referendum does not automatically imply a Niger Delta/Lower Niger Republic, just as it does not cover for the Oduduwa Republic. By the way, I believe your main concern should be channelled towards winning the heart of those in the picture below www.nairaland.com/attachments/5577491_screenshot20170630213703_jpega76645ca3fdfb78979151c17aa65aac1 |

When Britain Conducted Referendum for their Brexit from European Union, Did the Europeans participate in the Vote? allow them to keep fooling themselves. They have no good reason to convinced us or change our mind towards our Self - determination struggle and they resulted to all this the name calling, propaganda and cheap blackmailing. 7 Likes 1 Share |

Eastfield1:See this dullarpo . Apparently, you have been blind and stupid from the get go. 3. What happens if Nigerians vote yes? If a country votes yes, they’re essentially voting in support of some sort of change. If the independence vote prevailed in Scotland, complex negotiations would have taken place which could have meant changes to Scotland’s currency and economy, healthcare and pensions. However, referendum is sometimes met with opposition. If Nigerians do vote yes to letting Biafra go, it might likely lead to upheaval and unrest and in the worst case scenario, another civil war. For Catalan, here is how it went down; EligibilityNote: this criteria was put in place because the Catalan government is quite formidable in Spain as opposed to what the South East have in governement. 1 Like |
