@OP where is ya source?

Secondly, I suggest Igbos to reach out to elders and leaders of minority tribes around and table a clear agenda and manifesto before them to gain their support.

We can work towards a regional system of government between the five SE states and any other groups in the SS that are convinced to be part of the new country. I believe this ought to have been done before coming out with any maps. You don't just get up and draw maps in the UK and begin to publish online as Biafra. When did we make solid agreements with these guys around us?


Very importantly the name should not be Biafra. Something like Lower Niger Republic should do.

Please take away that map.
Exactly my thoughts 4rm d onset

Per the bolded, I guess a reasonable fellow does not reach out to turncoats. Any Nigerian who is a true neighbor of Ndiigbo and treasures self-determination and self control of destiny should willingly join the quest with IPOB.
No brother, we the igbos cannot achieve biafra without the south south one of the reasons would be for the sake of geography, they (d ss know that, even the Nigerian govt do). So I believe that there is a need for us to come up with a better offer to tempting for them (ss) to refuse. We can also annex some parts of the middle belt

With that referendum Biafra is assured, 90% of Igbos and their SS brothers will willingly vote in favor of The new State-Biafria.
I wouldn't get my hopes up if there is no proper sensitization of Ndi Igbos

Things are not done this way. There should at least be an attempt to reach out to these people with a clear agenda and manifesto. Starting a new country calls for a lot of mental work which I have not observed on the part of IPOB.

If you descibe them as turncoats then why include them in ya map?
You are right Bro, we still have not learnt how we lost the war.

See, I live in Rivers state, the heart of so called Niger Delta. It may interest you to know that the interest I'm developing about Biafra issue is because of the Zeal I saw in many Rivers state people for biafra restoration effort.
Most of them are waiting Patiently for the time for referendum for them to throw in their cap.
Still on the matter Bro, we still need to woo them

Look bro. I don't know where u are from. If south south, u may be of a younger generation. Eastern region comprised of South East and South South previously. We are all blood. After all d resources is better to be shared to develop both regions. Do u know over 90% of oil wells belong to the north? Will u continue to stay in a system where ur region is massively undeveloped?The British divided these regions into states using the North. Have u not noticed dat despite all the money, Nigeria is still a 3rd world zoo. All the machinations have been put in place to benefit the north and to a smaller extent, the south west. A smaller country will make it develop rapidly and diverge into other economic markets instead on hoping on oil which will eventually finish. Have u not heard of Nichodemuses? Some people in south south will not publicly support. But when referendum come. They will prefer to be Biafra than Nigeria. It is better to embark on a new journey that continuing an old journey with no end in sight.
