Why do you wanna stay with people who don't want you by force? Do you know how many countries have divided? Can you still imagine India and Pakistan in one country?
Am I the one holding you? I'm only being realistic. No government would sit down and watch its territory get balkanized without trying every means possible. I was initially in support of your secession before your Cownu of a leader started insulting my region and blaming all of his woes on us.

The 1999 constitution is a fraud from the military. That's not the constitution our founding fathers agreed to when the decided to join at independence
So? I hope you're not implying that people can go against the tenets of the constitution because of that.

Brain dead cows.

Agitation for self determination is a right in the constitution of the federal republic of Nigeria 1999 as amended.

Illiterate.
self determination through your leaders n not shouting like mad man on the streets

Apples and oranges, no basis for comparison.

Meanwhile you are relaxing in the UK, why not go back to Nigeria if it is a paradise, lol.
Nigeria is not a paradise! Lazy fuqs who wail for bubu to create a paradise for them can not possibly create a paradise for themselves.

America is working why will anyone want to secede?

You are just ranting. The word "if" implies that we have no way to be sure. But if you look at their history, northern America once went to war with the South to prevent them from seceding so yes, USA would still fight to keep all territories. Human rights, freedom, democracy, etc all go to the dustbin when national interest is involved (and this applies to every nation in the world) . However, I don't expect an Ipob member to know this.
You're the with the conjecture here! Because American are operating a fiscal federalism! That's the reality on ground! Ode

America is a land where justice begets peace. It is not a zoo with kangaroo courts where Islamic terrorist fulanis try to asphyxiate other tribes.
Idiot, you're very sick for always engaging in religious fanaticism!

1. The USA is a highly developed, civilised and rich country where everybody has an equal opportunity to hustle and survive.
2. The USA does not have to face Islamic terrorism on its own soul.
3. The USA practice cattle ranching , they don’t have terrorist herdsmen roaming around with cattle while killing, maiming and raping
4. The USA fought a brutal war with the British for its independence , it is a free country
5. The USA does not have 250 different ethnic groups
6. In the USA you have freedom of speech, expression and religion


Stop comparing the US to the shit hole .
Imagine how stupid whites would look at u for making the last statement!

We already have a glimpse of what their country would be like. Those who oppose Ipob are having their genitals cut off, the supposed leader having nothing upstairs but insults, fake news, lies, and threats. It's a disaster waiting to happen
The Nigeria is backwater is because of insincerity or lack thereof. In addition, actual facts are readily available on the lips on most Nigeria. The dude did oppose IPOB but he was a snitch.

We should stop comparing apples and oranges. Which of the territories of the USA would want to secede. A Land where justice and fairness thrives. Every state in America has its own economy, independent from Washington (FG). The GDP of California alone is bigger than the entire African continent and they don't run that state with oil. If we adopt this model where every state or region spends what we earn, who who want to secede? This fraudulent approach of sharing oil money and cheating and marginalizing one set of people will everly lead to some folks clamoring to leave the union.

Even Spain isn't run as badly as Nigeria is run and Catalonia which controls their own regional economy still want to leave, how much more Nigeria.

If rednecks of America decide to be milking Texans(which are mostly Latinos) oil money and be using it to fund themselves, you think the people of Texas won't want to form their own country or move and rejoin their kins in Mexico.

Thunder go fire anybody who will say its a treasonable offence in Nigeria.
leave them. They just come here and spill their ignorance like watery beans. Isn't America practicing federalism?

Have you heard about #Calexit?

And secession is outlawed in the US.
Re: Secession Is Treason And Punishable By Death In America. by DMerciful(m): 2:34am On Jul 07, 2021
It's a fraud and should be thrown out

Re: Secession Is Treason And Punishable By Death In America. by DMerciful(m): 2:37am On Jul 07, 2021
It's either you believe Nigeria will take you to the promise land or not. Like you, I don't like the way and manna Kanu approaches the secession issue but that will not make me want to remain in Nigeria to suffer for generations.

If Nigeria we're to be working, who cares about Kanu?

Earlier today, tweeps witnessed a mild drama on Twitter following a tweet by a Biafran netizen/tweep, @asksasi1, that secession isn't treason. According to him:



However, his opinion was immediately vanquished by other tweeps of different nationalities.

According to @the_davidatta,


For @ronikade,


Can a state secede?

You keep disgracing yourself, what happened to you ?
Why display so much ignorance and try to pass yourself as a wise person. YOU ARE SO NAIVE

many of you kids don't have any political knowledge, you just do random google searches and get half information and go to town with it....what the guy you quoted told you is the plain truth.....why are some of you averse to obeying laws...
Like lawyers and human rights activists say.....we have enough laws to deal with everything, it's implementation we lack.....the constitution clearly state the process to follow even if you don't like the union again but you'd rather display your ignorance than eat the humble pie , chestbeating mofo

AFRICAN CHARTER ON HUMAN AND PEOPLES RIGHTS

ARTICLE 20
1. All peoples shall have the right to existence. They shall have the unquestionable and inalienable right to self-determination. They shall freely determine their political status and shall pursue their economic and social development according to the policy they have freely chosen.
2. Colonized or oppressed peoples shall have the right to free themselves from the bonds of domination by resorting to any means recognized by the international community.
3. peoples shall have the right to the assistance of the State Parties to the present Charter in their liberation struggle against foreign domination, be it political, economic or cultural.

You may want to ask if that is the constitutional of Nigeria? The answer is YES. This is because Nigeria is a member state of the OAU and is a signatory to that law. Nigeria went further to domesticate the law which makes it automatically part of the construction of Nigeria. Since 1979, Nigeria has never refuted or amended that law.

Is it very very clear to you now? If anything contrary, present it here let me learn from you.
