The Importance of Returning Home to Be Counted by Biafrans Living Outside of Biafraland for the 2023 Nigerian Census

The upcoming Nigerian Census is such a significant event that it will have a significant impact on the Biafra restoration process and change a lot about Nigeria. The government will benefit from accurate population data as it develops national plans at this time. To be counted and heard, the Biafrans scattered throughout Nigeria’s Western and Northern States must return to Biafraland.

Biafrans have been marginalized in Nigeria for more than a century, which is one of the historical reasons for the Nigerian civil war, also known as the Biafran War of the 1960s. Same minimization is still incompletely the reason for the current tumults for an autonomous territory of Biafra. The Biafrans have been marginalized by the Nigerian government in a number of ways, one of which is by undercounting them and treating them as a speck in the Nigerian population.

The census is an essential planning and development tool. It gives accurate information about the population, such as its demographics, level of education, employment status, and other important aspects. This data is utilized by legislatures to anticipate the future, assign assets, and arrive at conclusions about arrangements and projects.

For a number of reasons, it is extremely important for the census to accurately count Biafrans:

In the beginning, it will make certain that the region is adequately represented in political and government processes. If the Biafran population is undercounted, the dubious Nigerian government will be able to continue depriving the Biafran people of the representation they deserve, and Biafran voices won’t be heard in decision-making processes.

Second, an exact evaluation count is essential for the allotment of assets. This includes the distribution of electoral districts and government funding for hospitals and schools. It will be possible to deny the Biafrans access to those privileges, which can have a significant impact on their quality of life, if they are undercounted.

Thirdly, an accurate count from the census is necessary to comprehend the population’s requirements and challenges. A government can better understand the unique challenges faced by this group and develop targeted policies and programs to address these challenges by gathering accurate information about the population.

As a result, the Biafran people must make every effort to be counted in their places of origin because of the significance of the census for them. This requires them to return to the lands of their ancestors and register with the appropriate authorities. It would be utterly foolish to gift a hostile host state with your population, knowing the fortune it bestows, or to become sentimentally attached to businesses or properties owned, given the segregation and denial of rights accorded to Biafrans prior to, during, and after the recently concluded elections in Nigeria. There is no assurance that your hostile host state is concerned about your safety or that of your business.

Consider this: a Lebanese, a Chinese or an Indian will be preferable treated over you anyplace in Nigeria outside Biafraland, yet you guarantee to be a resident of one Nigeria.

In case you missed it, their strong homeland is the reason they get better treatment. You must return home and strengthen your own nation. Really at that time you will be regarded. It is foolish to assert that your businesses will be destroyed. It has already gotten worse and cannot get any worse. Do not permit people who despise you to exploit your fear.

Biafrans also have the chance to reconnect with their roots and strengthen their ties to their ancestral homeland by returning to Biafraland for the census. This presents an opportunity for people to unite and demonstrate solidarity. What’s more, this in itself doesn’t recommend leaving your business outside Biafraland in a singular motion, yet rather a significant initial phase in a progression of savvy monetary strides for decoupling of particularly Igbo-Biafrans from a spot like Lagos to reconstructing Biafraland.

In conclusion, Nigeria’s upcoming census is a significant event that will influence the country’s future. Being accurately counted in the census is crucial for Biafrans’ efforts to demand greater representation and equal rights.

Biafrans must do everything in their power to return home in time for the census so that they can be properly registered and counted. The advantages of having an accurate count far outweigh the risks, despite the fact that there may be difficulties and ambiguities.

This presents a chance. Biafrans ought to meet up as a group, reconnect with their foundations, and add to the improvement of their networks.
