Maybe they're waiting for the Biafra to come first and even if they don't want to relocate you can't force them. They'll only become foreigners in Nigeria just like Ghanians.

Why did Nigeria want independence from Britain, but Nigerians don't want to relocate back to Nigeria from UK? Such a dumb question...List any country that has gained independence and all its people left to the new country?

shot that hole on your face. do you become foreigner by force? go and stay in your land first, later Nigeria will consider whether to accept you into her land or not and the number of people to be accepted. three months is enough to move your things out.

What nonsense is this? Four lines of pure garbage.Smh. I for one will be overjoyed if Nigeria is divided(let each nation go it's own way) but the bolded is trash.You can't be shouting secession yet be unwilling to relocate, what if Nigeria says she doesn't want immigrants from Biafra?Can u tell Trump "no Yemeni can be stopped from entering the US, they will only be foreigners?" All Igbos MUST relocate back home if Biafra is granted.If ever Nigeria becomes open to accepting immigrants, they will have to go through the laid down procedures.(visa, etc.)
PS; na this nonchalant manner of speaking dey make people no like una.Chest beating all over d place as if na una build (develop) the world.

Contrary to your dumb reasoning, not every Igbo is part of the Biafra agenda. If u organise a referendum in Igbo land today, u won't get a 100% yes for Biafra. And any stupid socio cultural group has no such power to give such a weighty order. East or west, home is the best. Every one in a foreign land will go home when the time is ripe. But u shouldn't force people to abandon their business or properties. It is a criminal act and should be condemned by all rational beings.
Even if Igbos finally break away, they will still accommodate nigerians as foreigners just as Nigeria currently accommodates millions of foreigners from other countries.

You need to read up on after Eritrea got its independence from Ethiopia in 1991, how Ethiopian officials are intermittently picking up Eritreans living in Ethiopia and having them deported to Eritrea, dumping them at the border to find their way into Eritrea that is not doing well in almost every aspect of life.

Amnesty International don write reports tire, changing nothing. Ethiopia like some other crazy Countries don't care what UN and all other international bodies think about their actions.

Should Nigeria break up, it is to everyone's interest that bridges are not burnt.

I wanted to answer him and saw this. I only pity Igbos with properties in the North. Am not worried about Yoruba land because I know there will be negotiations on taxes.

I am not even worried about Igbo properties in the north. Its because we are answering Nigerian with them in a system designed to favour them that they can be threatening us.

If we are seperate countries with seperate armies and airforce do you think northerners can touch an Igbo man or his property without fear of an international incident?

You are so ignorant

The Eritrea–Ethiopia Claims Commission (the Commission) was established and operates pursuant to Article 5 of the Agreement signed in Algiers on 12 December 2000 between the Governments of the State of Eritrea and the Federal Democratic Republic of Ethiopia (the "December Agreement"wink. The Commission is directed to
decide through binding arbitration all claims for loss, damage or injury by one Government against the other, and by nationals (including both natural and juridical persons) of one party against the Government of the other party or entities owned or controlled by the other party that are (a) related to the conflict that was the subject of the Framework Agreement, the Modalities for its Implementation and the Cessation of Hostilities Agreement, and (b) result from violations of international humanitarian law, including the 1949 Geneva Conventions, or other violations of international law.
Eritrea Ethiopia Claims Commission
In July 2001 the Commission sat to decide its jurisdiction, procedures and possible remedies. The result of this sitting was issued on August 2001. In October 2001, following consultations with the Parties, the Commission adopted its Rules of Procedure. In December 2001 the Parties filed their claims with the Commission. The claims filed by the Parties relate to such matters as the conduct of military operations in the front zones, the treatment of POWs and of civilians and their property, diplomatic immunities and the economic impact of certain government actions during the conflict. At the end of 2005 final awards have been issued on claims on Pensions, and Ports. Partial awards have been issued for claims about: Prisoners of War, the Central Front, Civilians Claims, the Western and Eastern Fronts, Diplomatic, Economic and property losses

These confusionists want biafra and at the same they don't want to live in biafra! See how Arewa guys have caused panic in their midst by just a statement. All the chest beating has suddenly ended - Nnamdi kanu ( a confirmed coward) has stopped calling for war against nigeria.

In 1991 as part of the United Nations-facilitated transition of power to the transitional government, it was agreed that the EPLF should set up an autonomous transitional government in Eritrea and that a referendum would be held in Eritrea to find out if Eritreans wanted to secede from Ethiopia. The referendum was held and the vote was overwhelmingly in favour of independence. In April 1993 independence was achieved and the new state joined the United Nations.
In 1991 the EPLF-backed transitional government of Eritrea and the TPLF-backed transitional government of Ethiopia, agreed to set up a commission to look into any problems that arose between the two former wartime allies over the foreseen independence of Eritrea.
