This is only fit for the dustbin

I know exactly what I am saying, SE is not a legal entity and can not by voting constitute a legal entity call 'Biafra'. Nigeria is the legal entity and all Nigerians have to vote on that referendum...Yes, referendum is a general election in that, the general public must participate.

The examples you gave gave credence to my point e.g.

1. British Cameron Referendum of 1961:
British Cameron was a legal entity by itself, it was a federating unit and the vote was, if they want to join Nigeria or join Cameron. Again, only a valid legal entity can conduct a referendum...Northern Cameron eventually voted to join Nigeria, while Southern Cameron voted to join Cameron.

2. Scottish Referendum to stay/exit UK:
Scotland is a country of it's own, with its own laws, entities and constituent Authorities. England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland voted to form UK, and each country can up and leave whenever they feel like, without the other having a say in it, because each of these countries are recognized worldwide as distinct federating units. All these is more possible because when forming the UK, each country reserved their rights to self-determination. Though, they were trying to copy USA, but the bonds among them was deliberately made to be more loose compare to to the bond between states in the USA.

I have to pull up the British Cameron Referendum to see, if the biding documents enumerated that these former entities can cede if they choose to.

In the case of the US, none of the 50 states can cede without the consent of the majority of the other states unless that state do it successfully by a way of revolution aka war. The same is applicable to the question Biafra, they were not part of any federating unit that joined Nigeria and even at that, there is no biding legal document pre-serving their rights to cede or self-determination, therefore the only valid Exit path is by successful revolution or consent of other states in Nigeria through a referendum.

StOla:


Have the elected representatives from the region that constitutes the desired Biafra tabled any request for a referendum?

Does a miscreant have a say or constitute an authority in a democratic government where there are defined roles and responsibilities?

Who is Nnamdi Kanu and what is his authority to prevent an election from holding?

Pesuzok:


Is referendum enshrined in our constitution?

steppins:

So this is your plan all along? To use us and then get Niger delta Republic?
Onye oshi.

Buking1:
I dey here
The truth of the matter is that those in seat don't even get it..
They will be playing to the very plan this man have.

And some people think that calling for referendum is like calling for war..
The man systematicly getting the world into his dreams with no vission of sharing one single blood of a Biafran.

For those who think that demanding secession must atract fight or war before it will be granted please google is your friend.

Let me clarify: the Biafran doesn't have a leader as the they say.
Now the man systematically reorganize them,gave them the orientation they needed. Now 73% Biafran are one in
(you can call him youth leader)
Then with his own way he is gradually attracting the world to his plan with the involvement of FG
With out a single shot of bullets he will get to the platform where it will be the FG that will be begging him
As you can see that even Ohaneze and others who dissociate themselves from him before are waking up to realize that people are not with them anymore
Sometime you need to know that brain is more powerful than anything
If Nigeria want to be one they should start by now to get him involve into the nagociassion of through regional control, failure to do that now! Will amount in nearest future where it can no longer hold meaning in every average Biafran man's reasoning, because by them he would have convice everyone that future in Biafra is more beter then any offer in NIGERIA and..
If you understand igbos in real life they cling to the future more than past or now.
That's his key

What the hell is wrong with this guy, he is doing igbo's no good at all, does he want them to loose their lives and properties, he better think twice o

ojun50:
U can keep makin noise come 2019 igbo people will go against him thy are good @that.

DrGoodmanFather:


Property bought with drug and ritual. Who want that?

ojun50:
U can keep makin noise come 2019 igbo people will go against him thy are good @that.

thesicilian:

We are going to jail him for his irrational talk and not because he's crying to go. Who cares if he goes to settle in the Sahara desert?
As for Igbo property, they'll most likely be burnt, demolished or repurposed as housing units for the less privileged.

StOla:
I will enjoy as that Anambra election will play out.

Will Nnamdi Kanu stop the people of Anambra from exercising their democratic franchise if they choose to?

Will he stop APC supporters from registering and voting?

I pity the ignoble end of this miscreant.

linearity:


A referendum cannot be organized by igbos alone, the whole federating unit call Nigeria must vote on the referendum, for it to be legit. And I think, he is going about it, the right way, but not only Igbos will vote....That said, I do not see how the referendum will pass in Nigeria.

For it to pass, Biafrans have a lot of work to do:

1. They must all vote overwhelmly for the referendum like high 90%, which is near impossible.
2. Sell the idea of BiafraExit to other Nigerians, so they can get votes from other sections of the country.

K0y3:
What you don't understand is if election doesn't hold, the ruling party will simply appoint administrators for the affected states. It's a big plus for the ruling party, big minus for the political elites in the affected states and a big blow to biafrians face. Any which way, then Nigerians win

Johnandv:

Lol so you are now majority huh! The whole North voted for buhari even with their under aged children coming out as voters , all they needed was a little addition and he wins, even if the yourubas did not vote for him and the igbos vote for him he would have still won, does that make you minority? brainless people!.

And why are you people always bent on focusing on lies. Who is calling for the heat here please? when has a Referendum become heat?? Please let's focus on the main issue and stop this Rigmaroling. Referendum is all we need

abbey621:


Mad love for these people, they sure know how to put on a show! The comedy just goes on and on, if the entire South East does not vote, doesn't it make it easier for the Northern agenda to reach fulfillment? Way to go professors

Almaheed:
I am ashamed of the buhari led federal government for allowing NK the status he enjoys now, who is NK? a cheap PDP stooge used to cause chaos in the East.... i resonate with the idea that Nigeria is a terrible country that lacks justice and equity but Biafra is dead. a forgotten ideology that only garner sentiment for the elites who are truly the enemy of the state.

what would be the faith of millions of IBO's scattered all over Nigeria mind you there are more IBO's outside their home state. they are know for their business and enterprising skills. what would NK Biafra offer this people.

the truth is NK is a fraud who wants to be worshipped like a demigod. he is only after is selfish interest. the hands that play the cards would be revealed soon.

TheRealestGuy:





You're just spilling trash mr.

Who told you a state in US can't seek to breakaway all by itself?



You dunno anything I must tell you.


A referendum is simply the voting on an issue by a country or part of it. Stop displaying your ignorance gallantly.

Biafra referendum can only happen in that particular area. Do you even understand the meaning of self determination?

YelloweWest:

I don't know but I know we are a democracy.

Government of the people
For the people and
By the people.

Give the people want they want.

chineduemmao:
my brother obviously you read a lot but you don't understand a thing thus you have to change your study approach- your choice of words are very uncivilised and naive.

KEVIND:


By boycotting an election I don't see why you'll force me with threat to life and property. If I decide no to vote or be voted for in an election why will you start threatening me with violence is what I don't understand.

pazienza:

Normally I ignore such trash like the above. But I noticed you kept using the word BROTHER, even when you sounded more demonic than Lucifer himself, I'm compelled to take on your lies and eviscerate them, lest you mislead an honest Igbo man, while hiding behind the evil cloak of "my brother ".

So here we go.

1. How exactly is the North fearless? What resistance did the North offer against the British colonial imperialism? The last time I checked, they roled over and were emasculated with little or no fuss by the British. What cause really did the North fight for, other than winning the medal for being the most subservient region to British imperial interests and earning the right to be the care takers of the British slave camp for the British, when they left?

2. Gowon called Ojukwu a coward? Lol! The coward are those who made themselves the foot soldiers of imperial British interest of controlling the resources of indigenous people of the Eastern region, what effort has Gowon put in to help his Angas people against their Fulani eternal tormentors?

3. What Ojukwu falsehoods? The one your Afonja parents fed you?
Ojukwu lost the war because the war was beyond Nigeria Vs Biafra, the war was about British imperial powers ensuring the Eastern region and Midwest region were under subservient people they can easily control to ensure they get their hands on the crude oil. Sadly enough for Ojukwu, the British had long picked their favourite subservient docile group to protect their economic interests in Nigeria, and it wasn't any southern group. The rest of Caucasian colonial and imperial powers were also mindful of the fact that Biafra independence might lead to groups in their own colonial estates seeking for independence, and such new independent states might be more difficult to exploit by them, in comparison to their colonial estates that were built for exploitation.

4. The Ibibios, Ijaws, etc trust the North more than the Igbo? Well, I can't say for sure , but the last time Ojukwu demanded that we put that assertion under the scrutiny of UN supervised plebiscite, Gowon and the rest of Nigeria fearing rejection by those groups declined. We can still put that assertion to a referendum today and see how it goes. Seeing how you Arewa -Oduanistanis threaten and scream war! At any point referendum is mentioned, it's not hard to see that you lots are not naive enough to believe your own lies.

Although personally, as an individual, I'm only interested in an Igbo only Republic of Alaigbo.

5. Lol! If Nigeria spend 1/4 of the money and infrastructures she spent post civil war on Lagos and later Abuja, on Enugu, Enugu would do much better than those two. Despite Awolowo hijacking the 3Rs meant for Eastern reconstruction after the war for Lagos, Enugu remains a shinning star, through Igbo hardwork, as she was the first Nigerian city to make the resilient city list.
The same Fashola that used 100m to dig a borehole and had been a colossal failure since he became the Minister of power, after boasting that 24hrs power generation was not a rocket science.

5. Who was the thief Igbos voted for? OBJ the Yoruba man that spent billions to generate darkness? Buhari the saint that served under Abacha, the most corrupt kleptomaniac regime in Nigeria and still had the guts to tell the world that Abacha was a saint?

6. Same Abiola that Yorubas sold out to Abacha and cashed on? How exactly were Yorubas begged?

7. Igbos don't care or seek about the trust of inhabitants of the British failed colonial estate, neither do we think about what you think about us, we are who we are and owe no Igbophobic being or groups any explanation. As for now, our permanent goal is puting a well defined territorial boundary/borders between us and Arewa -0duanistanis.

This is rather an obvious self-servicing writeup without any iota of sense or meaning though full of energies you can direct into something useful and legit. I give you - 2/100.
