Getting your mind ready for Self determination, and Activism for Biafra Actulization.
We will answer some key questions on the minds of most regarding our ongoing march to Biafra actualization. This effort on our part is a response to ongoing concerns of our people, misconceptions, misperceptions, disinformation and outright lack of information.
1. What is the role of the UN with respect to our agenda of Biafra Actualization?
The UN, on September 12/13 2007, passed a General Assembly Resolution (A/61/295) with overwhelming majority recognizing and supporting the rights of all Ethnic Nations to Self Determination. Self Determination is the principle and practice whereby a Nation—for example, an Ethnic Nation—is in control of its own people, its own land, its own resources, and its own governance, independent of any other subtending political structure. The power of this resolution is evident from the fact that if it means that such an Ethnic Nation has to establish its own different and independent government from the government under which it currently finds itself, the right of the Ethnic Nation to do so is recognized and supported by the UN. This means that we, the people of Biafra, have an internationally recognized right to establish Biafra, independent and different from Nigeria. All other Nations currently cobbled together into what is now called Nigeria each, as matter of fact, also has the same right. For that matter, all over the world, such Nations abound, and they have this same right of Self Determination.
2. Will the UN grant Biafra independence from Nigeria?
No. It is not the UNs place or function to grant Independence to any nation or any country. It is not the UNs business to grant Independence to any country or nation. It is always the Peoples responsibility and duty—our own responsibility, in our own case, to work out our own Independence. When the UN passed the Resolution cited earlier, it did not single out a Nation or a people; it did not reserve the Resolution for Biafra alone: the UN works for the collective International structure, not specifically for any one nation or country.
The UN will not obtain Independence for Biafra: that, we have to do for our own selves. On the other hand, the UN will respect its own Resolution which recognizes and supports our right to seek and actualize our independence from Nigeria. The goal of Biafra actualization does not violate any International laws; therefore, Nigeria will have no legal international sympathy should it try to criminalize our goal or should it fight us in this matter of Biafra actualization.
3. What is the attitude of other countries regarding our goal of Biafra actualization?
From all our interactions with the governments and peoples of other countries, especially Europe and the Western countries, we can say with all confidence that every country out there realizes that Nigeria cannot and could no longer stand as one country. What happened (what has been happening) recently in Kenya has nailed this realistic conclusion for all these other countries. Many countries have no stake at all and have no concerns: in other words, they are purely neutral; what happens to our people is of no particular concern to them. Those countries which show concern are for the most part hoping that Nigerians will find the honesty to face the reality of their problem, and the courage to abandon the sick structure called Nigeria so the peoples and their respective nations can go their own separate ways, so to begin to heal. They understand that we (Biafrans) are being severely oppressed, dehumanized and brutalized by Nigeria. These countries praise the Biafra agenda, especially given that it is employing the non-violence method. The countries whose interest in Oil and Consumer-markets initially led them to try to preserve Nigeria longer, even in its ailing status, have now realized that the mere existence of Nigeria in any form constitutes the greater jeopardy and graver danger for them and their interests. They are also beginning to figure out that the Oil market will be stable when the Oil is controlled and managed by the rightful owner; and that the Region will remain a better consumer-market for them if there is peace and prosperity, those conditions that could never be found as long as Nigeria reigns. Finally, there is a group of International players, individuals, governments and corporation who are getting rich from Nigeria being sick and being in crisis: obviously, this group wants to keep Nigeria in the current state or even worse, because they are making huge financial profits from the agony of the peoples.
Biafra Charter: http://www.biafraland.com/BGIE/Biafra%20Charter.htm
FACT: Nigeria and some "Nigerians" are mortally afraid of We Biafrans coming together and of our being of one WILL: the Will to be free, the Will to have our own country, Biafra. Nigeria understands the power of such a Will, and is deathly afraid of that happening. Nigeria's fears have been confirmed by its dealings with MASSOB, and other Biafran freedom fighters that there is such a Will, and it is super-strong and non-negotiable, and WE ARE EXERCISING THAT WILL!

Self Determination. If one is not working on Self Determination for our people of Biafra today, one is wasting time. As a matter of fact, wasting time would be considered a blessing when compared to the real consequences of not working on Self Determination for Biafra. Indeed, if wasting time was all of the consequences of not seeking Biafra Self Determination at this time, we should consider ourselves all very lucky.

What does this freedom mean? Freedom to choose your culture, social development, your economy and your political development without interference. The Biafrans have acted to exercise their power of self-determination.

Freedom is Biafra. The opposite of freedom is Nigeria.
Violence is a means and not an end.
Non-violence is a means and not an end.
Freedom is not Negotiable.
