How do we get the United Nations to be our ally for self-determination?

I have written this update to thank the 1497 people who have signed http://chng.it/QJp8yJ6hPs our UN petition for self-determination for the Yoruba people.
 
UN support is vital for self-determination because it is tantamount to universal recognition. There are two steps to UN recognition; namely, approval by the Security Council and acceptance by at least two thirds of members of the General Assembly. Critics say asking the UN to support our quest for self-determination is a waste of time. The stance of the UN on self-determination they say is contradictory and two-faced. Article 1 says that people have the right to self-determination whilst Article 2 makes clear that the integrity of the state was paramount. Article 2 critics say is the floodgate or Pandora’s Box impediment; that is, the more secessions the UN permitted the more would be encouraged, such that there could even be secession from a state that had itself seceded. However, the UN recognizes limits to sovereignty and territorial integrity. The UN accepts that sovereignty is conditional.
 
According to UN Resolution A/RES/2625(XXV) of 24 October 1970, a state’s right to territorial integrity prevails over the rights of any group of its peoples to self-determination only if that state conducted itself in accordance with the principle of equal rights and self determination of peoples. A state’s territorial integrity was protected only as long as the government represented everyone without distinction as regards to ethnicity, gender or religion. Secession was justified if the government persecuted groups, allowed ethnic cleansing and crimes against humanity, perpetrated human right abuses or was unable to provide security for the people. Where a state was failing to protect its peoples, the international community would be prepared to take collective action to protect that population, as was done in the case of Bosnia. UN Resolution A/RES545(VI) of 5 February 1952 sees self-determination as a means of preventing bloodshed and war, and preventing threat to peace. UN Report of the Secretary-General A6/63/677 of 12 January 2009 says that responsible sovereignty was based on the politics of inclusion not exclusion, and any failure in that regard was acceptable reason for self-determination.
 
In 2019, the Fragile States Index ranked Nigeria as the 14th most fragile (failed) state in the world and 9th in Africa. Nigeria lost the usual state monopoly on the use of force to Bokoharam and other jihadist terrorists, bandits and insurrectionists. Nigeria is third highest in the world terrorist league. The government is unable or unwilling to provide security for Nigerians or to protect its population from genocide, war crimes, ethnic cleansing and crimes against humanity contrary to UN Resolution A/RES/60/1 of 16 September 2005. With the ability of Nigeria to provide security compromised, Amotekun and ESN have had to step into the breach to provide protection for the peoples of Southern Nigeria against Fulani savages who have been rampaging unchallenged throughout the south orphaning children, raping women and destroying farms. The UN recognizes the remedial right to secede under these circumstances, as it did in the case of South Sudan.
 
The question is, how do we get the UN to be our ally? Ethnic groups do not have automatic right of audience before the Security Council or General Assembly. Nevertheless, there are several ways to influence the UN. First, we inform the UN that we want self-determination and why. I have made two applications to the UN already and will be making a third when signatories to http://chng.it/QJp8yJ6hPs reach a descent number. On 21 March 2021, the Yoruba Global Coalition submitted a Memorandum for Yoruba Independence. Others too must do similar. Second, we harness the voices of Nigerians who are spokesmen for NGOs and other international organizations; they regularly speak to UN General Assembly members. I have written to Mrs Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala, for example. Others too must write to those they know of. Third, we get the support of the public in America and Britain through their media, lawmakers and opinion formers; in particular let us give them pictures and videos of Fulani atrocities and let them know that #LekkiTollGateProtest was the beginning of Nigeria’s ‘freedom spring’. George Clooney and others helped South Sudan to get independence. We too must find allies. This is what I call ’megaphone revolution’. Let’s get to it! Thank you again for your signatures.
