Acts of this kind tends to fuel more radical agitation.People have the fundamental right of association.

freedom of association that is not waging war against the interest of state.

Canada granted Quebec a referendum not once but twice in 1980 and 1995 in both instances they chose to remain part of Canada. I mean just take a look at Canada. A world class nation with excellent infrastructure, excellent educational system, security and universal healthcare. Who wouldn't want to be part of such a nation? There was also a Scottish referendum 3yrs ago and the Scottish decide to remain part of Britain.

Canada and the UK had a secession clause for any block that chose to go in their parent constitution and had a legally clear rules for its requirement for it to be triggered.
Spain does not have!it only recognises that the central govt has the power to grant a regional status.

That man-made Islamic Nigerian constitution means little to the freedom loving people of Biafra. We abide by the will of the Most High and self determination he bestowed to us upon our births.

Go get your Christian or Jewish Nigerian constitution and have the Biafra sooner

Ahmedhussain3463:
if you notice the catolona secessionist are peacful in their conduct and that is why the government have due respect for their fundamental human right and dignity.bt check out ipob whoose leader spit fire against nigeria state,virtually all ipob member brandish dangerous weapon and u asking the military not to use live bullet against these rogues?dnt worri ,armoured tank,bomber jet,nuke and amoured tanks will b deployed to southeast if that will stop dis biafran nonsense.

has ipob ever carries arms in their protest? thank God for China, they are banning all Muslims.

God please in my next generation, don't put me in a country that has anything to do with a Muslim or Blackman, cos they have no value for human being.They value cow.

An advice, what about hastening coming back in your next life by doing the needful

EgunMogaji:


Spot on.

Nigerian Army, please no rubber bullets.

Spot on you said? but you didn't ask him if the Spanish army was unleashed on the people. If they had unleashed the army on the people like Nigeria did, you would have seen different reactions from the people.

in Christianity, killing one self is a sin, or killing others but in Muslim killing has a place with Muhammed.I m so for China right now, for banning that religion of terrorist that has no value for humans life.

Because I don’t care.

I just want military and police in Nigeria to carry live ammo.

They too deserve to go home to their family safely at the end of their shift.

DaBullIT:
Well, they didn't attack the police or army that's for sure

they didn't come out with molotov cocktails and dangerous weapons


And they definitely haven't been threatening President of Spain , if you want to compare spain to Nigeria , then you must learn to abide by the rules of your country

The spanian government should kill a handful them and see the reaction of the agitators!

FLYFIRE:

YOU HAVE NOT SEEN ANYTHING YET...UNLESS GOD IS NOT ALIVE. YOU CANNOT KILL AN INNOCENT MAN & GO FREE....NEVER

Mr Man, This Is Nigeria And Not The US. More Of Your Ilks Will Die In Cause Of Your Bellingerence And There Isnt Any Room For Negotiations Either.

So, Keep Beating Ur Chests And Watch More Biafrauds Die, Like They've Been Dying Since 1967. The UN Will Eventually Kom To Ur Aid Sumday.

Rubber bullets and one person injured? Oh God of mercy. In the zoo expect live ammunition and mass killing. Thereafter they tag you terrorist.

Zoogeria is an animal Kingdom no doubt

yes o you are right brother,but come to think of it ,the only language those rogues who pride them self freedom fighters understand his force.dnt forget how they conduct stop on check on passingby vehicle looking for poor hausa fulani.broda let me inject this consciousness,did u see any of the catalona secessionist brandishing dangerous weapon or threatening to unleash death,terror,war,act of arsonist, and obliteration like their rogue counterpart in nigeria here has been going about the whole biafran madness?dis is the diff btween a civilised and under civilised people.if am nigeria president i will deploy all the military hardware we could lay our hands on as government and declare state of emergency to complement operation python dance just to keep the unity of nigeria.

Yyeske:
Catalonia has a degree of autonomy already but a national court has ruled against this referendum, Nigeria doesn't even have anything called referendum in its constitution but IPOB terrorists insist they must have it their own way.
If Spain, an advanced EU country could do this, I wonder why IPOB terrorists are angry how Nigeria is treating them the way they did and still doing.

mehn..the tin taya ne...even European union is mute about this.......spain even went ahead to block their net...smh

unohbethel:
If a majority of people oppose any law then it has to be a bad law.

The Catalans want a referendum and reject Madrid's laws. And riot police attempting to prevent any vote will only make the situation worse. I suspect this will seriously damage any trust the rest of Spain might have had for Rajoy the spanish prime minister.

i can see rubber bullets not live ammunition as obtained here in nigeria..

nigeria is really a jungle.

only live bullet can tame those animal in the southeast brother,am nt bias bt am just stating the truth.

Civilized country, Spain, see police doing their work with rubber bullet. No soldier there, showing respect for human life.

I'm ain't a Fan of Politics Section, and hate commenting on any Post from the Section, but I think I'm gonna contribute on this One.

I know there is always tribal Brawl on this Section, and no way you can convince the waring Tribes to see light in the Darkness, but notwithstanding I won't be intimidated to read and move on.

We are mixing things up on this Matter, and being too sentimental with our respective Views on this Post. We ain't seeing the Lessons, rather looking for an Opportunity to win Likes and Shares.

Spain rejected the Secession hands down. They ain't ready to discuss or give a Chance for the Catalans to have their Independence. The Lesson here is; No Country in the World would willingly allow a Part to secede in this modern Epoch.

Police are firing Rubber Bullets not live Bullets which doesn't amaze me because; Spain is a developed Country, an European Nation, and finally the Secessionists ain't threatening by carrying dangerous Weapons.

The Lesson here is; the Catalans ain't stop 'n' search Vehicles to identify the Spaniards simply to maim or injure them mercilessly. None of their Leaders is ridiculing the King or the Prime Minister of the Country also.

They ain't toeing the Path of Sudan, a third World Country like ours, hence if they eventually succeeded, they won't become another South Sudan in Europe. The Lesson here is; chest beating, threatening won't give you what you want in this modern Era, thus War/Violence ain't the best Option to secede from a Country.

Palestinians used Violence to no avail, but they are being recognized at the UN presently because they've accepted to dialogue and be diplomatic with the Agitation.

The catalonians are currently voting. Barcelona footballer, Pique just had his vote. Other footballers have come out to criticize the Spanish government for using police to maltreat voters.
If majority of Catalonians vote "yes", they will declare a seperate Republic on Tuesday night.
Unity is not by force. Catalans have their unique culture and language.
Let them vote!

At least police stations are not burned

unohbethel:

did the spanish army went to the street to do show of force?

ofcourse they did,when you try to stop somebody from carrying out a proposed plan in a democratic dispensation is called opression.the only thing i notice is that,the riot police are observing the use of proportionate force just like the nigeria army had been professional in using proportionate force for ipob member that are weilding all dangerous arm they could laid their hands upon during the operation python dance exercise.

Do u know what u re saying? Why justify the barbaric and animalistic way d military handled IPOB agitators cos of your blind hatred for igbos?
What law are u talking about when the referendum was in itself a violation of the law if not police wud not ve been ordered to disrupt it.
In Germany when there was protests this year in July protesters attacked police and injured many yet no deaths occured, no python dance or crocodile smile.
Look at d links below and see if protesters obeyed d law and acted much more better than IPOB agitators and yet not a single case of protester killed.

Get Ur Facts Right. There Was No Outright Ban On Islam. Besides China Has Also Proscribed Church Activities For Youngsters And Teenagers- Its Aimed At Eradicating Xtian Religion In The No Distant Time. Use Ur Head.. They Are Only Trying To Limit The Influence Of Foreign Beliefs On The Newer Generation.

DEM NO GET RUBBER BULLET OR TEAR GAS NAH ONLY AK47 SO DIRECT

Sometimes i just hate it when people just open their mouth and spew rubish as fact,did i hear you say they didnt attack the spanish police??,well if you must know,one of the cars of the guarder civil was siezed and destroyed during the week and the officials beaten and chaced away during the week but still they shot at nobody eventhough they were well armed,so next time you want to defend your nigerian army for the rubish they did please try at least to do your home work very well.

how will the Catalan region declare independence when it is under Spanish central government constitution of which the Catalan region is a part of!
how will it declare independence when it has a supreme court ruling invalidating the action leading to any referendum and does not have a basis making the action a non binding!

GavelSlam:


True.

By the same vein, protesters should use rubber stones and feather sticks.

Better still, protest without weapons or missiles.

Oga lets be Honest, Do you realy think anyone in 9ja will throw stones at teh Nigerian Army

Rubber bullets...no matter what, humanity and personal dignity is upheld but in this zoo, u are mauled with live ammunition like wild animals hunting for prey.

This is how a crowd should be handled in a civilized society, it's not here where police will use live bullets, even on young students who are merely protesting.
