Ikedife, who is also the deputy chairman of the Supreme Council of Elders of Indigenous People of Biafra, SCEIPOB, said the group is in court with the Federal Government through Billie Human Right Initiative over Biafra self-determination.
The former Ohaneze President said SCEIPOB is seeking self determination for the Igbos politically, diplomatically, and through discussions within the framework of the law.
He told Sun, “Well, the matter is still in Federal High Court, Owerri Imo State. And it is left for the court to determine our right to self-determination.
"From the United Nations pronouncement which is received by the African Union (AU) and by augmentation Nigeria, it is proclaimed that any ethnic gathering who so wishes has the privilege to self-assurance. That privilege can't be ended arbitrarily."The issue there is, how would you go about it without encroaching on the law.
Billie Human Right Initiative took the Federal Government of Nigeria to court looking to know whether the general population in Biafra arrive have the privilege or not to look for self-determination."The SCEIPOB is seeking after it lawfully, politically, carefully and through dialogs inside the system of the tradition that must be adhered to. Also, you can see that different parts of the world are doing it."You will review the measure of the Soviet Union, from that point, around eleven nations have turned out.
Yugoslavia split away, Czechoslovakia split away and some others. England has left the European Union in the wake of being a solid member."Scotland looked to be individually from the United Kingdom, et cetera. It is the generally acknowledged right of any gathering to try to be without anyone else. There was a case like that in Spain and numerous other countries."We have outgrown the time of subjugation and colonization, the time of Berlin Conference when Africa was shared and ruled by the European nations. Not anymore.
"People ought to be permitted self-assurance. It is an essential right. Time is evolving. We ought to understand that the season of mastery and oppression in any case is gone."Don't overlook that majority rules system is about on the off chance that you are permitted to administer me. On the off chance that I don't need you to run me, it can't be by force."I will willfully enable you to rule me, not that you vanquished me. That ought to be the position.
That season of gunboat strategy is away for good. Give individuals a chance to acknowledge it, that you have no privilege to govern me on the off chance that I don't need it."
