“Proposals can be on the under listed matters and on any other matter that will promote good governance and welfare of all persons in our country on the principles of freedom, Equality and Justice,” the statement said.
Reacting to the report, Nnamdi Kanu tweeted: “Now that Nigeria’s National Assembly is calling for Memoranda on Constitutional amendment, let it be known that REFERENDUM on #Biafra is the ONLY submission we make. Nothing more, nothing less. Granted or not, Biafra shall come by other means … Soon!”
