Seven states decided to secede from the US in 1861, this led to civil war and they were badly crushed in the war that last 4 years

The American Civil War (April 12, 1861 – May 9, 1865, also known by other names) was a civil war in the United States fought between northern and Pacific states ("the Union" or "the North"wink and southern states that voted to secede and form the Confederate States of America ("the Confederacy" or "the South"wink.[e] The central cause of the war was the status of slavery, especially the expansion of slavery into newly acquired land after the Mexican-American War. On the eve of the Civil War in 1860, four million of the 32 million Americans (nearly 13%) were black slaves, mostly in the South.

Gbamsolutely. In Nigeria, looters are using secession as a strategy to overwhelm the state to avoid prosecution.

They were fighting to protect their way of life, or self determination as claimed by IPOB for Biafra. They also claimed they didn't like the policy of the USA govt on imports, high tariffs on foreign goods like many Ibo importer of okrika, used cars and rice. They also hated Abraham Lincoln and his policies just as Igbos hate Buhari.

And what will IPOB be fighting for? They didn't give us enough appointment under the 'failed' Buhari govt, Buhari did not appoint our brother as Chief of Army like Jonathan (like any Yoruba has ever been COAS since 1999). And our politicians always fail to secure the ticket of any major political party. But we vote against any of our people like Mighalu or Oby who become candidate in favor of the hated Fulani candidate like Atiku.

What are the other reasons IPOB wants to fight?

Go and read about American civil war. Lincoln assassination is not the same as war on secessionists.

The motto is that Nigeria is not separating, any agitation for secession will be crushed. The ignorant ones will never learn from history.
