Federica Mogherini, European Union High Representative for Foreign Affairs and Security has replied Biafra agitators and the Organization of Emerging African States (OEAS) over their call for a referendum. The OEAS had earlier requested that the European Union High Representative for Foreign Affairs and Security utilizes their good office to help bring about a referendum for Biafra’s independence. The OEAS also called for release of all Biafran political prisoners, a stand down of Nigerian forces, and a snap referendum to be held within 90 days. In response to their request, Mogherini replied Dr., Jonathan Levy, OEAS Chief Administrative Officer, stressing that, the European Union’s official position is that while it has strong diplomatic and economic ties with Nigeria, “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 went on to advise the OEAS and Biafrans that self-determination and border changes must be in accordance with established international law. The OEAS has called for an internationally recognized referendum on Biafra independence or autonomy. The EU has indicated it will only recognize a Biafra born via international law and not armed secession. To achieve a referendum, the 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 recognized in the International Covenant on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights of 1966 (Article 8(1)(d)). http://saharareporters.com/2016/01/19/referendum-eu-high-representative-replies-biafraorganization-emerging-african-states 3 Likes 1 Share

EU are kind of strong backers of Biafra Restoration. They were the first to condemn Operation Python Dance.... Even before Nigerians condemned it... Nigeria Government are too short sighted. 14 Likes |

I have very little doubt that Nigeria would seriously regret engaging in that operation Python dance in the weeks and months to come. 2019 elections would be a crescendo of many sorts. God bless Biafra, the land of the rising sun. it's our Biafra or their death. 14 Likes 2 Shares |

Declaring IPOB a terrorist organization means all SE region are terrorist zone b'cos Igbos has no base like BOKO Haram that operates from Sambisa forest. How can any foreign investor come to SE states as Buhari and Arewa hv declared them terrorists?. All the governors in SE are cowards. 1 Like 1 Share |

Just checked the website of the OEAS and I must say they are soon going to be at loggerheads with an EU member-Spain. There is a secessionist group claiming to represent the Canary Islands that is a member of that organization. And good to see a healthy Nigerian representation over there-you also have the Ogoni,Oodua and Niger Delta Republic over there too. Call it the AU of unrepresented African peoples if you like. Meanwhile what is/are the Republic of Mathwakazi and Dagaara Republic? Can't stop laughing. 1 Like |
