👉Give them regional autonomy so that they can manage their own resources and develop their own land with those resources. No way.
👉Okay, open seaports and international airports so they can bring in goods and travel for business as they are business inclined. No way.
👉Okay, give them good road networks and power supply so that they can do business within their region. No way.
👉You want them to remain chained to a poverty inclined country that they didn't create, that they didn't chose to belong to, where their resources are stolen and used everywhere but their own region, and expect them to be happy with such arrangement? You go to the point of murdering those who want to ask you for a referendum to democratically chose their fate.
👉Then those Igbos who are happy with this arrangement....what is wrong with you? Am sorry, it's a valid question, what is actually your problem?
👉There is nothing more fundamental than a desire to be free, there is nothing more fundamental than a desire for prosperity. Nigeria gives the Igboman neither....so what reason should any Igboman want to be tied to a country like Nigeria. When he knows that his true country, Biafra, the country that existed before the British came, is there waiting to be actualised?
👉We have to change our thoughts, this cannot go on, we cannot continue this way, and we will not continue this way.
