> A. No man will be oppressed
> B. Regardless of tribal and linguistic differences
> C. Regardless of religious differences
> D. Even at the absence of cultural differences.

> Have undergone over one hundred (100) years of

> willingly and true to our nature have made everything
> possible to ensure the progress of Nigeria and assumed
> Nigerians as one country and brothers. We have mixed

> WE THE PEOPLE OF BIAFRA

> Have been rejected as Nigerians due to the facts that we
> have huge difference in language; we are of different tribes
> which have no business being or coming to live together as
> brothers and sisters, we are religiously different and have
> very different cultures. NOTING ALSO, these
> differences have led to the 1967-1970 Nigeria/Biafra war
> where over 3 million Biafrans were killed by the Hausa
> Fulani and Yoruba soldiers supported and armed by
> Britain. Biafrans have been oppressed in
> this evil country up till today where they are minimally
> represented in any meaningful Federal Government

> WE THE PEOPLE OF BIAFRA
>
> Are the key to the survival and sustainability of Nigeria's
> day to day operations due to her resources. These
> resources have become our worst enemy just like the tusk of
> an elephant. Our survival is under threat because
> genocide and ethnic cleansing is the systematic program
> introduced by British-led Nigerian army and government so as
> to be able to control the oil resources and revenues
> thereof. Furthermore, latest atrocities against
> Biafrans is the use of Boko Haram Fulani
> herdsmen to kill, rape women in their farms slaughter and
> chase the villagers away and occupy their land. THE
> MOST UNDERSTATED CRIME IS USE OF ISLAM AS A MEANS TO
> INTRODUCE SHARIA LAW. This is unacceptable and foreign
> to our way of life.

> WE THE PEOPLE OF BIAFRA
>
> Have demonstrated religious tolerance, have unselfishly
> surrendered our natural wealth for the benefit of the whole
> country. Regrettably, we have been excluded from
> enjoying the gift we unselfishly made available. That
> our roads and all infrastructures were neglected just like
> the inhabitants of the area. Environment was
> irreparably damaged and intentionally neglected so as
> to establish long term health issues which now have started
> to decimate once healthy communities. The agricultural
> lands are now worthless. Regrettably, medical help are
> non-existent just like education.

> WE THE PEOPLE OF BIAFRA

> Denounce, reject in all its forms the continued detention

> Nnamdi Kanu, to release all innocent young Biafrans
> men, women and children that are still in detention for
> expressing their views and asking for their rights that have
> been denied from them because they are Biafrans. We
> also condemn the unprovoked massacre of young Biafran men,
> women and children by untamed combined Nigeria's law
> enforcement agencies. We condemn in its entirety the

> Police give account of all abducted and missing Biafrans in
> their custody.

> WE THE PEOPLE OF BIAFRA

> Are calling on the British to stop killing Biafrans.
> It is our right to reject enslavement by the British
> government through the use of Hausa/Fulani and Yoruba
> soldiers as their undisclosed agents. Also,
> there is no reason and logic to support the existence of
> Nigeria as unified country and claimed territorial integrity
> because of oil from the Biafraland. All atrocities in all
> its forms and shapes committed and instituted against
> Biafrans have been exposed. No nation in Europe, Asia
> then Soviet Union can survive as a country if they
> experience the Biafrans issues created by Imperialist
> Britain.
> India, Russia even East Africans like Ethiopia all have
> found peace after discarding unholy alliances. British
> economic interest should not take precedence over human
> lives in Biafraland.

> WE THE PEOPLE OF BIAFRA

> Wish to inform the United Nations, The Security Council, The
> European Union/Parliament as well as all those that have
> stood with us through this ugly struggle which we have
> carried on under the rules of international law, WE NO
> LONGER WANT TO HAVE ANYTHING TO DO WITH NIGERIA since
> we have been intentionally excluded by the Nigerian
> Government from any participations in the appointment and
> important decision-making in the affairs of Nigeria, the
> saturation of Biafraland with all the branches of the
> military and systematic massacre of Biafrans in Biafraland
> not including the killings in the Northern and Western
> Nigeria. THAT THE MENTIONED BODIES OF PARTICULARLY THE
> UNITED NATIONS AND THE SECURITY COUNCIL HAVE KEPT MUTE AND
> BLIND EYES TO THESE BARBARIC ACTS. It is time to

>
> THEREFORE, WE THE PEOPLE OF BIAFRA ARE READY TO
> SCHEDULE FOR REFERENDUM TO DETERMINE OUR DESTINY AND
> HAVE UNSHAKABLY REFUSED TO SURRENDER OUR LIVES, CHILDREN AND
> GRANDCHILDREN 'S FUTURE BASED SOLELY ON WORTHLESS ECONOMIC
> POPULATION THEORY WHICH EVEN YOU CAN NOT PRESCRIBE FOR
> EUROPE. IT IS FALSE ANALOGY AND WE WHOLEHEARTEDLY
> REJECT THAT.
