day only Russia recognized them as a sovereign entity. No one does business with them. In order for them to travel out, they took Russian citizenship and obtain Russian passports. But by international law they are still Georgians.
The Ukrainian conflict is still on till this day. The East broke out of the Ukraine with the help of Russia military. The war is still on. Even though for 3 years the Ukrainian government is not in control of those regions. No country in the world recognized those regions as independent or sovereign states. They are still using Ukrainian currency, Ukrainian passport and the territory is still know as Ukraine.
These are precedents. Don’t tell me our own will be different, how Mazi? If we push this thing as idiots and unintelligent people, Nigeria will make us suffer like never before.
They will stop salaries and pensions coming to East Nigeria like Ukraine did to their East. They will put economic blockade on the East that you can’t even ship your produces out nor bring importation in. They can make the life of the Eastern region living hell.
It takes a man who think with his head rather than his heart to know all these. It takes a person who employ reasoning rather than emotions to look for precedents. I still maintain that for things to run it course in accordance with international law, only the elites and the intelligentsia can move it forward and engage Nigeria in meaningful discussion.
If Biafra will ever become an acceptable republic in the world and enjoy all the privileges as a sovereign nation, only Nigeria will grant her independence from the federation like the Ethiopia did to Eritrea, like Sudan did to South Sudan , like Serbia did to Montenegro.
