Abia, Imo and Anambra have some crude oil, which even though it's not very much, will provide more revenue to the 5 SE states than the share we get from the present FG. Also, take note that the largest natural gas reserve in Africa is in Imo.
Let me remind you that in the next 20 years, most developed nations would have jettisoned petrol and diesel engine cars for electric cars. Crude oil will soon become nearly worthless.

Biafra as a nation will thrive on technology and industrialization. Aba and Nnewi have a lot of industrial potentials that are being stifled by Nigeria. Moreover, there are many more Igbo men in diaspora that will be ready to come and invest in Igbo land (Biafra) if the nation is born.

If South South are to be part of Biafra, there will definitely be rotational presidency between the various regions of Biafra. No matter how bad it is, Igbos will definitely treat South South better than the North treats all of us. Igbos have been co-existing with Efik, Ibibio, Annang, Ijaw, Urhobo etc people for hundreds of years even before Nigeria was born.

Oga Urhobo should not be in that list. Any Yorobaoid tribe in the SS and those from benin should be removed anytime Biafran issue is being discussed, otherwise that Biafra would be sort of a mini nigeria which is bound to be another series of back stabbing because the people within do not see there selves as people from a common ancestry.

Biafra should only be open to those who tribe was part of the Aro Confederation, and I believe that is also what the people at the fore front Biafra is agitating for

And for those too young or too unread/uninformed to know what the Aro Confederacy i'll help.

The Aro Confederacy was the ONLY closest thing to a federal republic that existed in West Africa, A trading bloc constituted of Majorly Igboid, Ibibiod, and ijoid tribes that traded together, intermarried , and formed military alliances existing for almost 600 years until it was squashed by the british in their quest to take over the territory in the early 1900s. The old people of Aro had a writing called insidibi, most big business men and kings in the old Aro territory had to learn insidibi to guarantee that they were able to communicate/trade within the economic bloc. If not the invasion of the British, the Aro Confederacy would have morphed into a modern country on the bight of biafra. And it would be all up to us to imagine how powerful that country would have been.

Please understand that the if your tribe, whether or not it is in the SS, was not a part of the Aros, nobody is talking about your people when the issue of Biafra is being discussed. Ask your grand parents/uncles.
