Movement for the Actualisation of Sovereign State of Biafra, MASSOB, and Biafra Independence Movement, BIM, have urged the United Nations, UN and other world leaders to divide Nigeria into six geo-political zones as a permanent solution to the problems facing the nation.
The groups noted that granting the six geo-political zones in Nigeria self-rule would be the only solution to the many challenges facing the country.
There position was contained in a statement signed by the Director of Information of the pro-Biafra group, Chris Mocha, the two groups called on the UN and other super powers to consider the lives of people that are killed on a daily basis in Nigeria arising from insurgency in the North East and Fulani herdsmen and respond to their call.
The proposed nations according to Mocha includes South East, (Biafra), South-South (Niger Delta), North East, North West, South West, (Oduduwa) and North- Central, adding that no amount of preaching on nationalism can change Nigeria as it is today.
The group further explained that when the said zones are given independence, assets of the citizens of the different countries will be protected by international laws, just as bilateral agreements will guide the future relationship of the new republics.
