Against the backdrop of the request by Biafra agitators and the organization of Emerging African States (OEAS) for the referendum to be conducted on the independence of Republic of Biafra, the European Union has replied the agitators.
The Biafra had earlier through OEAS requested that the European Union High Representative for Foreign Affairs and Security, Federica Mogherini, to wade into the need to conduct a referendum for Biafra’s independence.

Sahara Reporters reported that the OEAS also called for the release of those it described as Biafran political prisoners and a stay of action by the Nigerian troops, and for quick referendum to be held within 90 daysThe Biafra had earlier through OEAS requested that the European Union High Representative for Foreign Affairs and Security, Federica Mogherini, to wade into the need to conduct a referendum for Biafra’s independenceIn response to this request, Mogherini told Dr. Jonathan Levy, OEAS chief administrative officer, that while the European Union has strong diplomatic and economic relationship with Nigeria, the “protection of human rights and fundamental freedoms remains a priority for the EU and we encourage the authorities [Nigeria] in every occasion to respect such rights.”

The EU further went on to caution the OEAS and Biafran that the push for self-determination and border changes must be carried out within the ambits of established international law.

It added that Biafra can only be recognized through international law and not through armed secession.

The OEAS has called for an internationally recognized referendum on Biafra independence or autonomy.
In the same vein, OEAS advises all nonviolent means should be utilized including general strikes, economic boycotts, work actions, demonstrations, lawsuits, and civil disobedience. Nigeria is a member of The International Labor Organization (ILO). The ILO recognizes the right to engage in general strikes and the right to strike is also recogniazed in the International Covenant on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights of 1966 (Article 8(1)

Every journey begins with a step.....small small it is happening o

I said this will happen and it has already started. The world will never support the murder of men, women and children of Christian Biafrans in their own land by Sunni muslim jihadist.

Buhari muslim jihadist are so quick and happy to murder Igbos but not knowing that while they rejoice over Chritian Igbo dead, the world feel sad and pain for the victim. Whose gruesome murder image is distributed for the whole world to see thanks to social media that ensure pics are viewed endlessly.

Nobody will ever sell the Zoo arms.

Nigeria is on borrowed time, Obama is borrowing you time and it runs out this year. CIA never get it wrong, delay is never denial.

We will get there.
