Thus, Biafra is a response to the terrorism, cruelty, failure and utter lack of humanity represented by the Nigerian state
Logic: Biafrans at historical crossroads
The Federal Government is afraid of daring the perpetrators of the Sharia Law. We, therefore, find ourselves at another crossroads. Do we want freedom in a New Biafra or Slavery in Nigeria? The memory of the past civil war stares us in the face. The issue of another Biafra therefore raises more questions than answers. We are now faced with the problem of convincing our people that the quest for the new Biafra will not cause another war. We have therefore resolved to pursue the cause of freedom in our new Biafra. This is the greatest legacy that we can bestow on our future generation.
Objective: Biafran Independence
Having hoisted the flag of our new Biafra today, we wish to declare our resolve to demand and pursue the realization of our sovereignty from the Federal Republic of Nigeria.
Independence Strategy: Non-violence and negotiation culminating in a referendum
The process admits [use] of negotiations, dialogue and consultation. It also admits [use] of non co-operation and passive resistance to oppressive and obnoxious laws of the authorities.
Process Steps: 25 stages for the actualization of the sovereignty of the new Biafra State through Non-violence and Non Exodus.
It was through a struggle like ours that Nigeria, Ghana, India, South Africa, East Timor etc gained their independence.
