You are quoting the wrong laws. Article 20(1)of the African charter on people and human rights clearly states:

Article 20
1. All peoples shall have the right to exis-
tence. They shall have the unquestion-
able and inalienable right to self-
determination. They shall freely deter-
mine their political status and shall pur-
sue their economic and social develop-
ment according to the policy they have
freely chosen.

This is international law Nigeria has signed up to that all people have a right to agitate for self determination.

Ojukwu was not supposed to be subject to Gowon. No region was supposed to be subject to another, that was the essence of Aburi. Gowons job was to return to Nigeria, put the machinary in place to conduct elections and use the 1963 constitution as the bases of return to civilian rule.

But what did Gowon do? He returned to Nigeria and issued decree 14 of 1967 that abolished the 4 Region's, replaced them with 12 states, took away resource control and fiscal federation in a desperate bid to bring Nigeria under the control of the North. Ojukwu and the Eastern Region refused to stand for it and declared independence which led to a 3 year armed conflict. It was Gowon that caused all the problems with his useless decree 14 that went against Aburi


Anyone who says that decree 34 destroyed the Regions is someone that doesn't know Nigerian history. Despite decree 34, Nigeria still had 4 Regions, had resource control and fiscal responsibility. The only thing decree 34 did was unify the civil service. All the essential ingredients of true federalism such as Regionalism, fiscal federalism, resource control and the revenue sharing formular were all in place

It was Gowon that abolished all 4 Regions, replaced them with 12 states, took away resource control, reversed fiscal responsibility and changed the revenue sharing formular. This he did with decree 14 below.

To this day, Nigeria has never recovered from Gowons decree 14 and useless state creation

abeg teach am.. Some of them were thought only quaran in school

you no get sense bah

na wetin i do

He is an Igbo man ... Only a man from Western Nigeria will do that because hearsay. He know what people will say yet he went there.


Moral of Lesson- Your people are your people whether presidency or not.

Another lesson- Igbos dont live thier lives to please an hausa man.


Finally your myiopic brain thinks IPOB is all about Nnamdi Kanu.. You guys are Wrong IPOB is bigger than Kanu and its a worldwide group. Stop reasoning like your president.

Shameful people.. They talk about the future Nigeria forgetting what the present Nigeria is facing.

StaffofOrayan:
The plan is to make everybody get used to the killings(like Northerners), while dangling the promise of a useless presidency to the South.

seriously and some of this folks are from south

Buhari talks much now..maybe nnamdi kanu is not a terrorist again

Imagine Mods keeping this kind of tread open.


Op you are ignorant sha..

U dont know how dangerous a man is when he has nothing to live for.

Read Madiebo account of the war.. Baifra soldiers opting for a guerilla warfare should have kept the war up to 10years .

Theirs were protecting their land and people in it. .. Imagine like Boko haram that doesnt have a location or care about the people.


Let Buhari try and flush millitant in Niger delta first before your lots keep boasting.

And after 50yrs your People are the one in IDP CAMPS living with mercy from those you should have wiped 50yrs Ago. They come to your Land buy land and build houses making u a tenant.. Is Our God Not A miracle God
