Biafra: I Will Vote YES In A Referendum For Biafra - Senator Abaribe by ariwaonye: 4:12pm On Jun 15, 2020
The Minority Leader in the Nigerian Senate, Mr. Enyinnaya Abaribe has said that in a hypothetical referendum for Biafra, he would vote yes. He made the declaration in an interview with Rudolf Okonkwo of Irokopost TV. “I will vote for us to actually be on our own,” he said. “I think we are being dragged down by all the different things that weigh Nigeria down.”

The senator representing Abia-South Constituency in the Senate, however, warned that the Nigerian constitution does not have a provision for a referendum. “Which means, if you want a referendum, you have to go outside the constitution,” he continued. “Jettisoning the 1999 constitution requires having a meeting of all the different groups in Nigeria and having them agree to set that constitution aside and have a conference to agree on a new thing.” He said those who are benefiting from the current structure would always ignore that suggestion.

Mr. Abaribe challenged different Biafran groups to come together under one umbrella to avoid dissipating energy needed to focus and get to a particular position. “While we look for getting out of Nigeria, we should also, at this time, use the resources that we have to be able to make our homeland a better place for us,” he insisted. “Because if we are not doing anything with the resources that we already have, what is the guarantee that going into Biafra will give us a better frame of mind?”

Before it was no senator, Governor supports Biafra now you're bittered abaribe said he had vote BIAFRA if REFERENDUM IS CONDUCTED TODAY.... YOU GUYS ARE REALLY SICK IN THE HEAD

Your father's already said THEY WILL NEVER TRUST LEADERSHIP IN THE HANDS OF IGBO MAN.... WHY?

BECAUSE ANY DAY AN IGBO MAN BECOMES PRESIDENT OF NIGERIA HE WILL DIVIDE THE ZOO FOR ALL MAN TO GO HIS WAY

NOW MY QUESTION IS: why have your forefathers, your fathers and you still scared of Nigeria breaking up.... Can't you guys just stand on your own.... Is it so difficult to do?

Finally, Biafra has an ally in the Senate.

Can you all now get together in a single party and start meaningful conversations about getting a referendum?

We can finally be done with the noise once and for all

I am happy grin

But why? Why the Yorubas seems even more terrified that others of the self determination stand of the igbos and these Yoruba ppl are well educated. So what’s the irrational fear

What power? Same power that has ruined Northern Nigeria, the poverty capital of the world, home of 3rd and 4th deadliest terrorist groups in the world. 4rd highest IDP in the world, highest out of school children, Illiteracy base of the world.

The power in the North is killing one another either by bandits, terrorists or herdsmen.
