Biafra: BRGIE begins self-referendum voting for all Igbos, reveals details

The Biafra Republic Government in Exile (BRGIE) has declared the initiation of a self-referendum aimed at achieving the longstanding aspiration for an independent nation called Biafra.

According to a statement from Ekpa Simon, Prime Minister of BRGIE, the E-voting platform overview revealed that the referendum is a crucial step in the peaceful realization of the Biafra Republic. The document, as seen by our correspondent, outlined that voting will commence on February 1, 2024, and continue until a substantial number of votes are obtained. This extended duration accounts for challenges related to internet accessibility and power shortages in rural areas.

The group urged all individuals of Igbo descent in Nigeria to actively participate in the ongoing online referendum, emphasizing the right of Biafra citizens to freely choose their sovereignty.

BRGIE emphasized the unwavering loyalty demonstrated by Biafrans towards Mazi Nnamdi Kanu and the Biafra Government in Exile, citing the consistent observance of sit-at-home protests every Monday for the past two years during Kanu’s court appearances. These actions, according to BRGIE, showcase a strong desire for freedom from oppression and the recurring unjust killings of their people.

The statement highlighted the steps taken by the Biafra Liberation, such as the delegitimization of Nigeria in Biafra territory through declarations like the Grievance Declaration, Institutionalization Declaration, and Commitment Declaration. These actions, coupled with the establishment of institutions required by international law and standards, have positioned the Biafra Liberation for state recognition.

The referendum election, as described by BRGIE, signifies another significant stride toward freedom. Biafra citizens are encouraged to express their determination for an independent United States of Biafra by participating in the Biafra Self Referendum (BSR).

To qualify for the exercise, participants must be Biafran by birth, born to Biafran parents, and be 18 years of age or older. They are required to know their State and County, serving as their precinct, and must possess a passport photo or the ability to capture one using a phone, with the photo not exceeding 2MB in size.
