Biafra Referendum: Igbo To Determine Fate;ifeanyi Ejiofor Tells President Buhari by vegafbs(op): 11:24am On May 31, 2020
The Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB has told President Muhammadu Buhari to allow Igbo to call for a peaceful referendum to determine their fate and future in Nigeria.

The IPOB lawyer, Ifeanyi Ejiofor, disclosed this on Saturday while speaking with SaharaReporters on the struggle and agitation for Biafra independence.

Ejiofor stated it was obvious that the Eastern region had been relegated to the background and no longer part of Nigeria and the only option left was a peaceful settlement of their grievances through a referendum.

In his words, “They believe that Igbo are not part of the system and the best thing for them to do is for the government to allow Igbo to call for a referendum. It is a process that is constitutionally backed by international conventions and laws.

“We are no longer part and parcel of the system and it is high time thought of home. Let us have our own house with an unbiased process which is what Nnamdi Kanu advocated for.”

He blamed the Nigerian Government for failing to tender an apology that would have helped heal the wounds caused by the Civil War where Igbo were killed in large numbers.

Ejiofor further stated, “Government owes our people apology. The government has not assuaged the feelings of the Igbo in the manner in which they were killed and slaughtered.

“It is a matter of common knowledge that between 1967- 1970 we experienced mass murder (genocide) against Igbo which has continued unabated with the way our people are being treated.”

Ejiofor said the struggle would soon come to fruition now that Nnamdi Kanu had explored all diplomatic contacts to ensure a peaceful actualisation of the project.

He stated that “Biafra will be realised peacefully not violently and he (Nnamdi Kanu) has been matching toward that fact. He is not there for any political purpose. He is only motivated in the cause he believes in.

“It is glaring that we are not part of this system.”

Is "one Nigeria" by force? If it is by force then Nigeria is pointless. I dont believe in holding anyone against their will in the name of unity. They should give Igbos a referendum

Yes, we must damage Nigeria with bad government so they cannot see anything to secede to, we will continue to promote bad government in the presidency.

Discharge and bail lawyer. Buhari has no constitutional power to singlehandedly grant referendum. It has to come through the various states in the east to the national assembly for vetting.

Government should allow this people to go, enough of the drug trafficking, human trafficking , and development trafficking with Nigerian passports. Nigeria can never be great with this people because they are not happy being called Nigerian.

It's true. See how Amaechi used our oil money to support Buhari election. That's how we will be making sure they surrender our northern oil to us while we keep making them fight the east. Asari is just our willing tool.
