But yeah, Nigeria is pretty much divided, rest of the Nigerians want unity while it's mainly Biafrans that vote opposite of Nigeria's interest

The issue with multi-culturalism is that there's no way to make sure people will cooperate or integrate.
And then you just have an empire where the subjects can clog up the system.

Nigerian Election 2015: Red = Muslim/Hausas Green = Christian/Biafrans

Is it purely on religious lines or are there deeper issues at play?

Religious, Ethnic and Cultural.

I mean in politics.
What do the red and green politicians support?

Biafrans supported Jonathan who was part of the PDP, their main ideologies are Conservatism, Economic Liberalism (Neo Liberalism) and "Big Tent"

Northerners supported Buhari, of the APC, main ideologies are Social Conservatism, Islamic Law (Sharia), and "Big Tent"

Sounds like a partition/seperatism is probably the best option.
But I don't see nigeria allowing that.

Yeah, hence why they send Nigerian Military personnel to deal with Pro-Biafran advocates

However, Biafrans do recieve support from other countries, they look favourably on Putin, Trump, Israel and Brexit

And in return there are Biafrans living in the US, Europe, Eastern Asia and other places that organize groups to show support.

That's pretty cool.

Is there any real chance of Biafran independence?

Well one of the main nationalist movements, the IPOB have set up an organogram of how the Biafran government will function

Some other nationalist movements are encouraging and setting up local Biafran law enforcement, something similar to AntiCom

Interesting.
I suppose the Nigerian government will do whatever they can to disrupt this?

They will try

However the current president isn't at his optimal health, he's been taking a lot of sick leaves lately

He also has Boko Haram in the North to deal with

I hear they're annoying as shit.

As well as the Niger-Delta conflict, which could impact Oil prices

Yeah, Boko Haram are barbarians, essentially ISIS.

However it's general knowledge to Biafrans that the current president is in bed with Boko Haram

Islamic leaders seem to support these radical terrorist groups.

What evidence is there for that?

Islamic leaders sponsoring radical groups, or the president supporting Boko Haram?

The second.

During the early 80s, Nigeria had a major coup de d'état, Buhari being a major player, he was essentially planned to be put in as head of state. During the rise of Boko Haram, he openly denounced the groups actions. Since he's taken power democratically in 2015, Boko Haram has been surging. He generally takes little military action against them or other Islamic groups like the Fulani Herdsmen, but when it comes to Biafrans and Militants of the Niger-Delta Region, he denounces them as terrorists and usually sends their military personnel to deal with them.

He isn't directly supporting Boko Haram outright, but his ommitence to their actions do help their cause

Alright, so if they're not controlled opposition then he isn't doing enough to stop them at least?

Essentially, yeah.

I getcha. Shitty situation.

Very

But with tensions increasing, seperation may be coming soon.

There's also a surprising amount of people on /pol/ that supports Biafrans

Christians are better than muslims.
And Pol is always happy to support random movement in africa.

Remember when they declared support for the Gambian empire?

oh yeah

Jammeh, the madman

VICTORY FOR JAMMEH was a good get.

Anyway, I'm excited for the Vault7 thing
