The United Nations plans to declare Biafra an independent nation in 2020, if Nigerian president Muhammadu Buhari refuses to assent to its freedom, claims a Facebook post shared on 25 November 2019. Biafra is a region in south-eastern Nigeria. Its secession in 1967 sparked a civil war, and sympathisers’ calls for its independence continue. The post is on the IPOB News Facebook page. The page is run by the Indigenous People of Biafra , an organisation that works for Biafran independence. The United Nations will unveil what is best described as ‘Plan B’ to declare Biafra Independence, in case Nigerian president refuses to assent to the pact, it reads . It does not make clear what the pact is. The Chief Editor of Biafra news agency, John Nweke, disclosed that with what is going on now, the United Nations has determined to put Biafra freedom in the 2020 programme. It is believed that before a Nation can receive its freedom the President of the Nation needs to put his signature, but now there is a plan B put in place to declare an Independent Nation unilaterally by the United Nation even if the President would not sign. Nweke confirmed further that there is going to be a circular that will be sent to all Presidents of all nations to put them. ‘The UN has no such powers’ The United Nations can’t declare Biafra a sovereign state, Prof Saleh Dauda, a political science and international relations expert and lecturer at Nigeria’s University of Abuja , told Africa Check. The United Nations was established by international laws. It does not have the power to unilaterally declare any part of any country a sovereign state, Dauda said. Before the UN can get involved or admit Biafra as a sovereign state, there is a process that must be completed. For Biafra, that process has not started. There must be a referendum. The government of the country must agree. The UN will deliberate on it and will also be a fact-finding mission. – Allwell Okpi Majalisar dinkin duniya ba ta da hurumin da zata ba wa yankin Biafra yancin kai Majalisar dinkin duniya zata tabbatar wa da yankin Biafra yancin kansa a 2020, matukar shugaba Muhammad Buhari ya ki amincewa su ci gashin kansu, a cewar wata da’awa da ke ta yawo a Facebook wadda aka rarraba a ranar 20 ga watan Nuwamba 2019.
