Buhari Backs Western Sahara On Self-determination From Morocco by Ohammadike(op): 7:18pm On Mar 11, 2016
President Muhammadu Buhari has thrown his weight behind the people of Sahrawi Arab Democratic Republic, SADR, otherwise called Western Sahara, stating that Nigeria would ensure the realization of their self-determination and independence.

He however said the secession would be pursued in full recognition of the several extant resolutions of the African Union, AU, on the right of the Sahrawi people for self-determination.

The struggle for independence Checks by Vanguard indicated that the SADR is a partially recognized state that controls a thin strip of area in the Western Sahara region and claims sovereignty over the entire territory of Western Sahara, a former Spanish colony.

According to Wikipedia, the country was proclaimed by the Polisario Front on February 27, 1976, in Bir Lehlou, Western Sahara.

The SADR government controls about 20–25% of the territory it claims and calls the territories under its control the Liberated Territories or the Free Zone.

On the on other hand, Morocco controls and administers the rest of the disputed territory and calls the lands its Southern Provinces.

While SADR government considers the Moroccan-held territory to be occupied territory, Morocco also considers the much smaller SADR-held territory to be a buffer zone.

The claimed capital of the SADR is Laayoune, while the temporary capital which was due to the government incursion is Tifariti also previously known as Bir Lehlou.

Heaven knows I hate and despise that lanky dullard from Daura.

The Gambari mallam have ended up hardening the heart of those that were hitherto indifferent on the biafran struggle.

Re: Buhari Backs Western Sahara On Self-determination From Morocco by Nobody:
Hmmm......

The Western Sahara issue is not like the Biafra issue for these reasons

1.Western Sahara was a colony of Spain (was called Spanish Morocco)....while Morocco proper was a colony of France.

2. Morocco got independence from France in the 1960's. Western Sahara did not get independence till 1975.

3.When Spain quit Western Sahara.....Morocco and Mauritania marched in and split the country between themselves.

4.Eventually, Mauritania left its half of Western Sahara....which was taken over by Morocco eventually.

5.The OAU (Now AU) Strongly censured Morocco for its activity....and as a result....Morocco pulled out of the then OAU in 1975. Since then, they have stayed out.

6.Since the 1970's,Nigeria has always backed the Western Sahara.....in line with OAU/AU mandates. So..Buhari is just continuing an old policy...which is backed by all other African states.

Sorry,but this ain't Biafra in the desert....

Modified at 10pm:

To all those responding with abuse to my post....my making this my comment does not in anyway stop you from fighting or agitating for Biafra.It is a democracy.....you are free to do that, and I am free to oppose you.

At the same time,let us do it with decorum in speech. Calling someone names because he or she say something that challenges your beliefs does nothing to convince people of the rightness of your beliefs.I did not insult anyone in making my comment, nor did I stop anyone from fighting for Biafra by my comment. So...why the insults.? Is this the language you use in public?

If we can all speak with civility and with tolerance for each other...our Nairaland would be a better place.

Thank you and it is goodnight from me
