• Keep article is well sourced from multiple sources that cover the group. I hsve posted in Wikiproject Nigeria asking for help in places the article in a suitable category. Please be aware that Wikipedia is for everyone not just western or pop culture audiences and an article on a secessionist group in Nigeria that has attracted attention of national media is invaluable information for students and researchers on Nigerian politics.

• Delete: article looks a bit too promotional as it is not a major secessionist group yet. Reference bombing also detected. —Oluwa2Chainz »» (talk to me) 11:55, 12 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
• Very Very Weak delete: I hardly agree with Oluwa2Chainz at AFDs, but in this case we seem to be thinking alike. I perfectly understand his !vote but I just want to add more perspective to it. One thing is for certain, any group that comes out today to state its objective as the emancipation of Biafra or Southern Cameroon, several news sources will publish the news but per WP:NOTNEWS that info doesn't belong here since it will be WP:unencyclopaedic. I did some digging into this organization and its still fairly new, and there are very many similar collations across many segments of the country, perhaps a wp:nlist article can be created to document them, as they seem to get coverage, although per WP:EVENTCRIT it's not enough for a standalone article. From what I see online, these group are yet to make any serious impact in the struggle for Bafra nation, and per WP:CRYSTAL, we can't be hoping that a secessionist group gets more powerful in a sovereign nation. Let me end by saying that that there are sources quite a number, but are mostly announcements, coalitions and intentions. So I'll understand if someone votes to keep the article. I would have included linkes to the sources here but I only have access to WP for now. Darreg (talk) 14:43, 14 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

• Strong delete In accordance with what Oluwa2Chainz said of which I believe is a Nigerian editor so it's his prerogative to know more. A strong delete is best applicable, as I also have re-searched on this & even to my amazement not only is the culb non-notable, as of now there is no county or anything recognized as "Biafra" in the world. so how do they even have a club when the country or organization it self is non-existent and not officially recognized itself is but a myth??? This is so hilarious, it's like saying USSR have a club. it simply doesn't even exist. This is why personal research is very salient & not just judge from what other editors have contributed, those voting "keep" clearly aren't serious or are just trolling. I go with 2chinnz on this one please delete this. Celestina007 (talk) 22:40, 16 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
