Biafra Restoration Project: We Aren’t Quitting Anytime Soon

 

 

“A people denied the right to self-determination will fight until they achieve it.” General Chukwuemeka Odumegwu Ojukwu

 

These words of the Biafran eternal leader are not mere words. They were a prophecy, a thunderous cry from a man who saw far ahead, who knew that injustice cannot last forever, and that a people robbed of identity, dignity, and freedom will someday rise again. Today, over five decades after Biafra was declared, that cry still echoes louder than ever: We are not quitting; not until Bịafra sovereignty is restored.

 

The People of Biafra have endured humiliation, marginalization, betrayal, and genocide. We have been called rebels, branded terrorists, and hunted down like animals for simply demanding what every free people deserve - self-determination. But let the world understand that we are not afraid, and we are not backing down.

 

How can we quit when our fathers’ bones still cry out from shallow graves in Asaba, Owerri, Onitsha, Nsukka, and Enugu?

How can we surrender when our mothers were raped, our children starved, and our hopes crushed beneath the boots of a government that still treats us like second-class citizens?

 

We cannot quit because we carry the torch lit by Ojukwu - the torch of truth, justice, and survival. We are Biafrans not by convenience, but by blood and history. Nigeria has tried everything to erase us using economic sabotage, military occupation, cultural suppression, and media blackout, but like the phoenix we rise again and again.

 

And now, they ask why we still agitate?

 

We agitate because the Nigerian state has failed to heal the wounds it inflicted.

We agitate because our youths are still being arrested, disappeared, and killed for waving our flag.

We agitate because the so-called unity is a lie wrapped in chains.

 

They tell us to move on, but how do you move on when your future is caged? How do you move on when those who ruined your past still controls your tomorrow?

 

To those who misunderstand us, we say, Biafra is not a threat;  Biafra is a right.

To those who fear our rise, we say, justice delayed is not justice denied.

To those who hope we shall give up, hear us now, We aren’t quitting anytime soon, not until Biafra is restored.

 

This struggle is bigger than one man, one group, or one generation. It is the soul of a people longing to breathe freely. We will continue to speak, march, write, organize, and resist  with our voices, our minds, and our undying spirit.

 

Ojukwu spoke, we listened. And now, we march.

Biafra lives in us, Biafra will rise again!

 

And when that day comes  when the flag rises once more, not in defiance, but in freedom  the world will know that a people denied the right to self-determination fought, endured, and won.

 

Biafra or nothing!
