How do u conduct a referendum in a región where a now turned militant group(IPOB) does not brook any opposition, does not tolerate divergent views and uses intimidation and violence to force people to either join their protests or have their bizs shut ?
I doubt If these people know what a referendum entails.
Its like going to sambissa forest and asking forced inhabitants there if they support BH or not.

PLEASE GET KNOWLEGDE, IS IPOB A TERRORIST GROUP? WHERE THEY NOT THERE WHEN WE HAD THE ELECTION THAT USERED OPPOSITION?

Biafra: OEAS demands snap referendum winthin 90 days
Published on December 4, 2015 by ·

The Organization of Emerging African States (OEAS) has demanded that the Nigerian government conducts a snap referendum on Biafran self-determination within 90 days.
In a statement sent to PM News, OEAS noted that Biafra is a charter member of the OEAS, an international governmental organization that promotes self-determination and the end to colonial era boundaries in Africa.
“Today the people of Biafra are locked in an emerging struggle with the Nigeria federal government, the inevitable result of which will be self-determination for Biafra. Unfortunately the Nigerian government has resorted to summary execution and detention of Biafran patriots. The situation will surely escalate unless immediate action is taken,” the statement said.
It then called for the Nigerian government to meet the three following demands:
1. Immediate release from jail of Biafra Zionist Movement, MASSOB, IPOB and Radio Biafra supporters including Benjamin Onwuka and Nnamdi Kanu.
2. All federal military and police forces to stand down and return to their barracks.
3. A snap referendum on Biafran self-determination to be held within 90 days with OEAS, UNPO, and nonaligned observers supervising the balloting process.
“Failure to meet these demands will undoubtedly result in civil strife as non-violent Biafran protestors pay with their blood for their chance at independence. Regardless of what measures the Nigerian federal government may take, the die is cast for independence and Biafrans will not be deterred.”
“There is one chance for a peaceful referendum, a life line is being thrown to the Nigerian government which they ignore at their own peril.
“The Biafran people are patient but will not be indiscriminately murdered by the Nigerian government without resisting to the full extent of their human rights,” OEAS said.

Biafra land tribes are numerous but the most populour that I know are Ogoja, Edoma, Obudu, Ikom, Ugep, Efuk, Oron, Ibibio, Anang, Ogoni, Opobo, Ijaw, Andoni,(Itshekiri,Urhobho), Ogba, Egbema, Ndoni, Igbos. Though most populous is Igbo there is still a need to understand that these autonomous nations have lived together as neighbours and kinsmen even before the time of Adam. Its said the Ijaws are one of the oldest settlers in Biafra. It was also an Ijaw man who reminded Ojukwu to use the true name of the indigenous republic "Biafra". Even before Oyinbo came Biafrans had norms and values which prevented neighbours from annihilating themselves.It wasn't Oyinbo or colonization that taught Biafran people government or infact democracy. To date each of the autonomous nations are governed by a very republican type of govt. With council of elders/chiefs, Community development council(think tank),the youths and of course the Women. Biafran Women have always played a big role in govt and in most Biafran autonomous nations like Orlu/Njaba clan of Imo the indigenous women were the highest arbitration body, known and revered the agaba or umuada will sit on appeal over cases already adjudicated on by the Umunna.
I hope as I am only a student of Biafran history that I have not missed anyone as there are so many if so please update me and if anyone could help with the natural languages spoken by each one.

First they came for the Socialists, and I did not speak out—
Because I was not a Socialist.

Then they came for the Trade Unionists, and I did not speak out—
Because I was not a Trade Unionist.

Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out—
Because I was not a Jew.

Then they came for me—and there was no one left to speak for me.

~ Martin Niemöller

This saying is so true for the present stage of dictatorship we find ourselves now.

1) They rubbished Madueke without facts, we were silent.

2). They arrested Dasuki, we shrugged, na dem dem.

3). They shot at unarmed protesters we said it serves them right(why did they burn mosque)

4). They sent a bill to gag freedom of speech and we kept quiet.

5). They held Nnamdi Kanu against court orders, we kept quiet at least he's not my relative.

When they come for you, just remember your silence.

"In the End, we will remember not the words of our enemies but the silence of our friends"

~Martin Luther King Jr.

And you are the expert on referendum? Please educate us what a referendum entails and how many you had successfully conducted to have an expert opinion?
They talk peacefully, you charged that they don't know what peaceful means entails. They take the chart of violence , again you shouted equally that they have no idea what violence or war mean. What the heck do you want peace or war? Or non of the two? Tell us Mr expert, we might learn something.
Referendum basic criteria is that the people so polled are allowed to express their free will.
Do u know that if u express a contrary view in just an IPOB gathering,u are called an agent of the govt, if u are lucky not to be attacked ?
-Do u know if u dare open your shop or biz on d day IPOB takes to d street,u run d risk of having it vandalized?
-Do u know that IPOB prevented travellers from accessing the east,blocking the 2nd NB this week?
Have u seen where a true referendum is done under an atmosphere of intimidation and violence?Cite me one eg and i will maintain my peace.
IPOB is a scam financed by those who lost out in d last election and wud benefit under a crisis filled nation so that their past misdeeeds wont be found out and they lose their illgotten wealth and the accompaning power it guarantees in a lawless society .

They are not exactly brokering a referendum,they are just demanding for it(stating whose side they are on),*as an organisation for new countries*.If the Nigerian govt dont do it,nothing would happen,but,it good news for biafrans as they are winning more people to their side.I personally hope the N.G conducts it.
