He said Biafra will likely be the 16th state of ECOWAS, and there is a strong likelihood that there will be free movement of goods and people, which includes protection of properties.

Soludo said the debate about Biafra must hold, that there is no running away from it, that the new Biafra movement has mixture of intelligentsia, the middle ranked and "foot soldiers" all in large amount, and driven by well to do, educated and intelleligent people in diaspora, heavily funded by them too, that anybody wishing it to go away by use of force or just wishful thinking, is lying to him/herself.

He also said that since it has gotten to a level of president Buhari even mentioning the word "referendum" even tho he said there will be none whatsoever, it means that in nearest future, the debate will be whether to have referendum or not, and which will be how to organize a referendum.

Soludo made mention of the sit-at-home protest, that if that does not show naysayers that something is brewing, then nothing else will.

Above all, he said the govt can't continue using force or denial, as a means of stopping the agitation, that it needs the government to be able to debate, discuss and provide counter opinions against Biafra.

Soludo also quoted Soyinka on Biafra being an ideology that can't be defeated by incarceration or shooting of the agitators.

I must also add that he warned the so called Igbo elites who are either in denial and those who think they want to use the agitators to negotiate for their own personal benefit, to think twice, because a time will come when the held up anger by the agitators will be unleashed on them, and that while vying to keep Biafra in Nigeria that yoy should also be careful to protect the interest of those who see Biafra as a means to get justice, equity and fairness, otherwise the whole thing will blow up on your face.

All he said is that there must be debates and discussions, because the way things were taking shape, that, the pro Biafrans seems to have been winning in their own side, and just like the sit at home, they may totally say this and this will not take place ie elections for example, and majority will avoid elections, and that will make a major point to all and sundry.

At least this time you did not say "Biafra will never come", tone is changing.
Good of you, change is everywhere!

Your properties and investments in London and Dubai what's happening to them. All the government officials and Nigerians that owns properties and investments outside Nigeria what's happening to them. You people are getting it wrong. If BIAFRA is actualised, Biafrans will be in Nigeria as foreigners including their properties and investments just as you hv other foreigners in Nigeria and Nigerians in other countries as foreigners.

Jesusloveyou:
soludo only said in case it happen, and we didnt say it wil ever happen, try to get the scoop into ur brain

Which still brings me to use my popular sentence, "man no be God".

Ignorance reigns supreme on nairaland. Biafra will be part of ECOWAS and there is a treaty of free movement of goods, people and properties. Indians, Lebanese etc own properties in Nigeria likewise Nigerians that own properties abroad.

If Biafra is ever actualized Nigeria will see to it that severe visa and residency restrictions are placed on Biafrans and will veto any attempt for her to join ECOWAS unless a clause confirming these restrictions is included into the ECOWAS treaty. Nigerians will not look upon Biafrans as brothers but as enemies who destroyed our country. Sorry bro you cannot eat your cake and have it, you cannot live among us

PUSH1:
Then what is the need. if I will remain here while I am a biafran

kropotkin2:
You are ignorant of some of the clauses of the ECOWAS treaty. For any nation to join the ECOWAS, all member states must approve. If even tiny Gambia vetoes Biafra's entry into ECOWAS, then she stands excluded talk less of mighty Nigeria. Also being an ECOWAS citizen doesnt automatically grant you residency rights. It only allows you a maximum of 90 days stay in addition to free movement of people, goods and services. So Nigeria can and will exclude you from our territory if you so wish to breakaway. No one can tell us who can stay on our soil and who cannot. You cant eat your cake and have it

Even God loves people to have freedom, to live on their own and control their destiny, that is why he told Abraham to let Lot go to his desired place and be for himself

udokpuenyi:
What if it turns that it will be ECOWAS that will beg Biafra to join the Union. After all UK just pulled out of EU

OMAR12:
