Avengers demand referendum, predict splitting of Nigeria into 5 countries

Militant group Niger Delta Avengers on Saturday afternoon demanded a referendum in a series of tweets from their official handle ‏@NDAvengers.

In one of the tweets, the group said: “President Buhari borrow a leaf from PM David Cameron, call for a referendum and let Nigerians decides like they did to vote you into Power.”

In another tweet, the group said: “Nigerian President Buhari should call for a referendum to enable every Nigerians to vote if they want to stay as Nigerians or not, just like what David Cameron of Great Britain did.”

This very tweet was accompanied with what the Avengers see as a possible map of the Nigeria of the future. The map shows Nigeria split into five different countries, namely, Arewa, Niger Middle Belt, Oduduwa, United Niger Delta and Biafra.
