FIRST THOUGHT
No nation is an Island. When Biafra is restored, we are not going to live in Heaven, neither are we going to space, or a dreamy island - but we are still to live on Biafraland, and about 40% of Biafrans will still be living outside Biafraland as we are cosmopolitan by nature, hence, there is great need for an open National political economic plan in our own interest.
NEIGHBORHOOD
We are currently living in a contraption with people who will eventually be our neighbours when Biafra is restored: We have the Yoruba in the west side, and the Fulani controlled northern neighborhood of Biafra, and both have proven to be hostile to us. Whereas, Biafrans live at ease in every other African State where they are more than welcome, even to the point that much of their economies depend on Biafrans, and also, Biafran Pounds are used in Ghana, Ivory Coasts etc, the Nigerian state is totally the opposite to us, as we living in paupery though our lands are rivers of oil, we are shot in protests, while Fulani killers are state defended, our shops in Yoruba land are daily set ablaze; after the Fulani-Yoruba conspiracy of 1967.
INTERPRETATION
The hostilities we have suffered in the Nigerian state is not as a result of the hatred of fellow Africans for Biafrans, but, a result of the bitterness sown by the British into our neighbors against us in a cage built to enslave our prosperity (Nigeria: land of darkness), and secondly, we are suffering from the Fulani imperialist terrorist ideology to conquer West Africa, of which their bloodshed have been decried by many Africans for long now, while the ruling class has done their best to protect, defend and even negotiate free grazing lands for them, which is more Emirates added.
HOW POST BIAFRAN INDEPENDENCE WILL LOOK
Once Biafra gains independence, many Biafrans all over the world will return home to Biafra, just like Isrealis returned to celebrate independence, but not all we return to live in Biafra, some in Lagos, North, Africa, worldwide will go back.
In Lagos, Yoruba will likely increase their pressure on Biafrans to abandon their property to leave Lagos, but there is no way about 8 million Biafrans in Lagos can all return to Biafran, it can happen, but will not.
In the North, the poverty and terrorism will be intensified, the north will become more terrorist than ever, and the anger of Fulani will be intensified on Biafrans for spoiling their feudalist plans, hence, they will try to make the north be like middle east for Israel, and different groups in north will be campaigning for self determination.
In Africa, the different African states will be looking to see what Biafra has to offer.
The World: Pro Biafra nations will start supporting Biafran prosperity, while Britain and co will draft out reasons and plans to stop the rise of the new nation dead on its tracks, with UN as a tool and also our neighbours, and ethnic fault lines and dissatisfactions, such that if Biafra doesn't have much support, the opposition it will face like Israel or even more can make it fall like Libya, but God forbid, our hard earned freedom will last forever and be expanded by Grace.
MAIN POINTS
For Biafra to be secure, we must make sure our neighborhood is safe for us just like USA always ensures., through points like
1. FULANI MUST LEAVE NORTH: The Fulani migrated to north just about 200 years ago, and through a philosopher, Dan Fodio, they overthrew the Sarkin Gobir (Hausa King of Sokoto), and they overthrew about 90% Northern princes and installed fulani emirs including in Yoruba land Illorin. The fulani has vowed to dip the Quran into the Atlantic ocean as the successful conquest of the south, and they are using terrorism to drive the vision. The Fulani empire which Nigeria is an extension of was founded on bloodshed, lies and injustice, and cannot be tolerated anymore.
For us to have a free north, a sunni free north, a north that won't be a terror to us, then we must put an end to Fulani emirate: All fula-islamic princes MUST be dethroned and displaced by Biafran and pro Biafran princes. Eg instead of Sultan of Sokoto we can have Obi of Sokoto, Kano etc... Coupled with Christian Hausa Sarkins who will be friendly with Biafrans. But as for Fulani, not one emir should be left if not we will cry in the future.
2. BIAFRANS SHOULD NOT LEAVE LAGOS
Since Biafrans own a higher percentage of interest in Lagos, and Lagos was built with Biafran money, Yoruba was awarded scholarship by Awolowo with Biafran money in the bank, then Lagos is legitimately ours, and we cannot abandon our lands because of independence. Instead, we must have a Biafran prince of Lagos, or at worst, a Biafran and a Benin prince of Lagos. Also, driving fulani out of Illorin will deliver the territory safely into our hands.
If Yoruba is to lay claim to lagos, they should tell us the Yoruba name for Lagos .
PRINCIPLE: You don't form an alliance with those who hate you, rather you put them in a position where they lose heavily should they attack you. Forming any parallel alliance with Yoruba, or Fulani is unthinkable, they should speak to us from a penitent state.
3. UNITED AFRICA
Having secured our surrounding from enemies, we can push for a United Africa: A United Africa is the perfect political defense for Biafra, because if we don't have it, America which is 50+ Countries in one Country will remain 50× more powerful than the best we can offer. The USAfrica will create a great defence for the Africans, in form of: increased trade between African states, unity against neo colonialism, a great opportunity for the full exploration of Biafran ingenuity, the protection of Biafran and African economies from Western sanctions etc
Biafrans must push for the establishment of the United States of Africa, which is why Gaddafi was murdered by some western politicians who prefer us divided and rapable. Imagine if the African Monetary Fund and gold dinar by Gaddafi succeeded, how we would have been rich.
We can push for it by loading with African states who are progressive like we Biafrans, while sidelining those who are tools of African neocolonialism.
If any template more sound than this is in stock, let it be taken, if there isn't, let my submission be critically sieved, and realised.
