Fellow Biafrans: What we Biafrans have gone through since the creation of Nigeria by the British government, is unthinkable and unbearable. So much hatred, so much jealous, so much pains, so much anger so much tribalism, so much tears, so much heartbreak, so much bloodshed, So much death, so much injustice, so much destruction, so much silence. What is the crime of Biafrans? What has Biafrans done to warrant such harsh and undeserved treatment? When has talent, passion, hard-work, success and blessing, become a crime? When has prosperity, possession, commodities and affluence, become a crime? What is the crime of Biafrans against Nigeria? Please I need answers!
Why the constant killing of Biafrans by the Hausa-fulani's, why the constant assassination of Biafrans by the Nigeria armed forces, why the constant property destruction by the Nigeria government. Where did Biafrans go wrong? Or is it their fault that God almighty decided to make them a blessing to all Nations? Is it their fault that all they touched turns into gold? Is their fault that the promise of God maketh way for them? Why the hatred and wickedness? Why? Why and why? Biafrans are asking for self-determination because they no longer feel safe in Nigeria, a country that despise and hates them so much.
Biafrans are asking for self-determination because they can no longer bear the hatred, jealousy, wickedness and death been directed to them in Nigeria. Biafrans no longer have love for a country they were once proud of. Biafrans are tired of living in constant fear. Fear of invasion by the Hausa-Fulani's, fear of untimely death by the Nigeria armed forces, fear of intimidation by the Nigeria government and fear of freedom of speech and expression.
Fifty years following the original declaration of Biafra Independence, we Biafrans rise today to re-commit ourselves to this noble declaration, its spirit, substance and implications, our Independence being our right and our destiny, and a manifestation and symbolism of our Freedom and Liberty. Those fifty years have validated the wisdom and propriety of the declaration of Biafra Independence: these fifty years do now compel the re-actualization of Independent Biafra.
All Biafrans have witnessed and experienced, all these years, the unrelenting stranglehold of Nigeria on Biafra and we Biafrans say "ENOUGH IS ENOUGH" and for every Biafran the Nigeria armed forces and Hausa-Fulani's take, Five more will rise to pick up the mantel. There is no going back! Killing and intimidation will not stop the sovereign state of Biafra. We are taking charge of our own collective destiny
As an Independent Sovereign Nation of Biafra, We know that the Law and Rules of civil Humanity are on our side: Self Determination is an inalienable Natural right; it is recognized in the United Nations Charter; we exercise this right to actualise Independent Biafra. In making and re-affirming this declaration, we make neither war, nor peace, with Nigeria: we merely exercise our right as a people and a nation.
Long live the Independent Nation of Biafra! Its Biafra or Death!
