Does not hating Igbo mean supporting them to grab other people land? When has Efik ,Isoko,Ijaw and Igala become part of Biafra? Did you consult any referendum on them and they agree?
Biafra will be worse than military regime
Maybe you skip the caveat "if they so choose". NK brand of Biafra nationalism is built on an ideology he calls "Bia fara"

If you share the same ideology with Ndi Igbo, progressive, resilient, then you are free to join the union.

It is a united stateS not like the shitt we have in the zoo today.

Nnamdi Kanu Releases Seven States That Will Form Biafra, Reveals System of Government.


The Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB, leader Nnamdi Kanu has released what the system of government would be in the Sovereign State of Biafra when it is finally actualized.

This was contained in a statement released on Monday signed by its Publicity Secretary, Emma Powerful, with the title, ‘THIS IS FOR THOSE OF US WHO DO NOT KNOW HOW BIAFRA SYSTEM OF GOVERNMENT WILL BE LIKE.’

The pro-Biafra group said its constitution would be written in local languages with seven nations making up the country called Biafra.

The statement added, “During the interactive session with our leader, Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, on 12th January 2019, OWEI KEME BRADIKUMO asked a question:

“What is the proposed CONSTITUTION of the upcoming UNITED STATES of BIAFRA. Can we get a draft copy of it in the public domain now that will be necessary before our campaign towards the pending globally accepted BIAFRA REFERENDUM?

“Response from MAZI NNAMDI KANU: Biafra will run a unique political system designed to cater for the needs of our people.

“We are going to have NATION STATES. We will have an IGBO NATION WITHIN BIAFRA. We will have an EFIK NATION WITHIN BIAFRA. We will have ANNANG NATION WITHIN BIAFRA if they so choose. We will also have IJAW NATION WITHIN BIAFRA. We will have ISOKO NATION WITHIN BIAFRA. We will have IDOMA NATION WITHIN BIAFRA. We will have IGALA NATION WITHIN BIAFRA.

“Listen to this: THEY WILL ALL BE AUTONOMOUS. Each Nation State will control the resources in their own land. The only thing that will bind us together will be a COMMON DEFENSE POLICY, COMMON ECONOMIC POLICY, COMMON POLICY IN HEALTH AND EDUCATION. In the rest, let people develop according to the pace that they wish or they decided amongst themselves to go by.

“LAWS WILL BE DONE IN LOCAL LANGUAGES. Igbo Parliament will make their own laws in the Igbo language. Ijaw Parliament will make their own laws in Ijaw language. The same thing applies to Ibibio and others. So that when people are lying to us we will know because you know lying is good in the English Language. But you can’t deceive the people when you are actually speaking in the language that they understand.

“What we are going to have in Biafra will be A BRAND NEW NATION WITH NEW IDEAS AND NEW WAYS OF DOING THINGS. Our political arrangements will be geared towards addressing our core needs.

“Igbo Land will have a Prime Minister. The same thing will happen to Ijaw, to Isoko, to Urhobo, to Itshekiri. Everybody will be Autonomous from one another to develop at the pace that they like. That is the type of Biafra we are seeking to have. And that is the type of Biafra we are going to have.”

Very stupid suggestion. It shows kanu is a stark illiterate, who has no idea on how nations are formed or how governments are run. His equally illiterate followers will be ecstatic as if he had said anything reasonable.



Very senseless statement. What does the language a constitution is written in have to do with anything? A constitution is usually originally written in the lingua franca of a country, and then translated into whatever language people like. The English bible originally brought to Nigeria has been translated into over 300 Nigerian languages.



What is the meaning of "unique political system"? Is kanu going to invent a new system of government?


Where has he ever seen a nation divided along tribal lines? How will such borders been drawn? Noting that some tribes are interspersed within each other.

This last statement shows kanu is actually clueless of what he is talking about. What does he mean common economic policy? Are the economies the same? I am certain he meant to say MONETARY POLICY.
What does he mean by "COMMON POLICY IN HEALTH AND EDUCATION"? I thought he said "THEY WILL ALL BE AUTONOMOUS", does he even understand what autonomy mean?


Kanu should never mention Itsekiri from his lips. It is am insult.
He also has no idea of the parliamentary system of government. Prime minister to who? Who would the prime ministers be reporting to?
its great to see u talking nonsense with good english.

1. Kanu can invent a new system of govt...the system of govts used in various countries were invented by humans too.

2. Yes britain was divided along tribal lines...welsh, scottish and english....the english was further divided along clans like saxons, anglias, wessex, suxxes, exxes, nortumbria etc.

3. A federation or confederation can have autonomy in many areas and yet have shared responsibilities in some areas....read more about the nature of the E.U so u can stop exhibiting stupidity boldly.

4. B4 gowon truncated the 4 regions, each region has a prime minister (called premiere) who is appointed by the gov and reports to the parliament. In u.k each country (yes, country) that forms it has a ''first minister'' who is actually a prime minister for that region. The regional prime minister have areas they dont have power such foreign affairs, currency, military, federal police, environment, customs etc.

Why not give the details of the new form of government he intents to invent. Kanu can say he wants to invent a perpetual motion device, the problem is the details of how. Talk is cheap and easy.



2. Yes britain was divided along tribal lines...welsh, scottish and english....the english was further divided along clans like saxons, anglias, wessex, suxxes, exxes, nortumbria etc.

Britain is confederation made up of 4 separate countries.
England is not divided politically along tribal lines. There are no nation states like saxons nation, anglia nation,,cell nation, etc in England. England is politically divided for administrative convenience and not for tribal convenience.


3. A federation or confederation can have autonomy in many areas and yet have shared responsibilities in some areas....read more about the nature of the E.U so u can stop exhibiting stupidity boldly.

EU started out as an economic union, but morphed into a quasi political union, yet it is still not a sovereign state. They are all still independent sovereign states with some having different monetary, defence and foreign policy.
You should be comparing EU with ECOWAS and not any federation or confederation. The EU is governed by treaty and not a constitution.

It was not Gowon that truncated the 4 regions, it was General Aguiyi Ironsi through Unification Decree 34 of 1966. Before that decree, each region was governed by a premier and was semi autonomous. At the centre, the prime minister was the head of government and was supposed to report to the president. But the British ensured the president was useless and only ceremonial by conferring the head of state on the prime minister, which was an anomaly, a minister should be reporting to the president and not the other way round.

You really need to get some education on Nigeria's history.

u are really a poor student...a very poor student.

1. British govt is exactly a govt divided up along tribes. The so called 4 countries in britain are simply the original 4 tribes that formed the country. Wales population is not even as high as ijaw population or even isoko. They called their tribes ''nations'' and call yours tribes and u buy it. Kiddo.

2. Read about the E.u again. It has nothing to do with ecowas. Pls dont argue stupidly. Read about the E.u right nw. The system that is ''E.u'' is a new and unique political system not found anywhere else and it has a president and a parliament and its a very major political entity. Read it for ur own good.

3. If aguiyi terminated the 4 regions, wat position did ojukwu hold? Who was ojukwu again? Gowon's deputy? No who was ojukwu pls?

For ur info and to cure ur stupidity which i believe is delibrate(cus i dont want to believe u are really stupid) the 4 regions continued to exist until gowon ended it and replaced them with 12 states. Aguiyi only created the unification decree 34 to allow him appoint regional govs. If he didnt create the decree then he wont have any legal backing to be the one to detamine who the 4 regional govs would be.

Do u get it? Nitwit

Please I just want to know: why does Biafra peaceful agitation for freedom always anger Yorubas more than any other tribe, why Is there a hidden reason behind this hatred and worries about Biafra freedom among Yorubas because from what I read, it seems Yorubas hate Igbos a lot, so I expect Yorubas to be the first to celebrate and pop wine whenever Igbos talk about seceding from Nigeria, why is it not so despite the hatred Yorubas have for Igbos

Ojukwu was appointed military governor of the Eastern Region of Nigeria by Aguiyi Ironsi, what does that tell you? When premiere is changed to governor, what does that tell you? General Ironsi destroyed the region's and converted them to states under a unitary government. That was why decree 34 of 1966 was called the unification decree. That decree created a unitary "one nigeria".
I am advising you again, read the unification decree 34 of 1966.

You are still going round circle on this EU thing. The European Union is a free association of sovereign states designed to further their shared aims. It is not a sovereign state on its own. It is not a federation or a confederation. It is governed only with a treaty which is even yet to be ratified by the various states. It does not have a constitution. All a country has to do to leave the union is give notice as specified in the treaty. It is left for the EU and the leaving country to negotiate terms of leaving. If agreements are not reached the country will just leave. This can't happen peacefully, if it was an actual political entity. Texas cannot decide to leave the United States without serious conflict.

Can you use Google? Just search for decree 34 of 1966 and read it, at least I credit you with enough comprehension skills to understand it.

How did Ojukwu become the governor of the eastern region and Fajuyi the governor of the western region? Were they elected? What of their parliaments? Who was making laws for the states created by decree 34? What happened to the former premieres of the regions, were they removed constitutionally? Who did the new governors report to?

First, Aguiyi Ironsi did not abolish regional government, he only enacted a new decree 34 to grant him power to appoint governors for the regions.


But then, even if we agree that okay Aguiyi Ironsi made the mistake and abolished regional government, must you Nigerians of today continue on the same mistake that's dragging you backward and keeping you stagnant

Because your father decided not to build a house and lived in a rented house all his life despite having the money to build his own house, does it mean that you his son and your siblings must continue on that same wrong path your father followed that ruined his life

Think, think for once, think and stop hating Igbos foolishly!

Dividing or restructuring Nigeria is for the good of all Nigerians to live in peace, have more security and have a better nation where they can work and succeed without migrating to foreign nations to labor to make ends meet, think!!

This is a military government, you don't expect Ironsi to keep the regional prime ministers who were murdered in the 1966 coup.

Are you not aware that most of regional government leaders and prime ministers were murdered in the 1966 coup that led to Ironsi becoming Head of State, so it is expected of Ironsi to appoint top military officers to head the regional governments pending when the country returns back to civilian government again, and before Ironsi as a military head of state could appoint military officers to act as governors of the regional governments, he must make a military decree to grant him such power, which led to his enacting decree 34 of 1966.
