Armaggedon:
That's what you think which is in fact not correct. We are not known and have never been known throughout history to force people. If they opt out via a referendum we let them be. southern Cameroon did so. Today nobody remembers they were ever part of eastern region except themselves b'cos of their plight. I don't need to go down the history lane but you must know that while it's easy to say SS minorities did this or that, it's not so in reality. The Ijaw, kalabari, okirika, ibani on one hand and efik, Ibibio, annang and ogoja have mixed with their Igbo neighbours so much for one to believe they will reject Biafra and opt for any other arrangement. moreover they have their people in Ipob. forget the online rejection, the decisive moment will prove.

The way you guys make your calculations on Niger delta republic makes me believe you actually think there will be a time when all Nigerian ethnic groups will be given a chance to choose what they want. I don't think so. It is those who challenge the oppressor that the oppressor calls for negotiations.

The entire of Niger Delta can decide to join you guys in biafra but As for Edo we are more than capable of archiving our independence. We will be fully independent.

For your information when your people have sacrificed their lives for the freedom of SS and SE you will realize when referendum comes and they tell the world they too want their freedom, by then all eyes are on Nigeria and everyone will be listened to them because UN stands for the freedom of everyone, including the minorities. Take Yugoslavia for example
