ENUGU – Following ground swell protests at
Ontisha, Anambra State and other states of
the south-east geopolitical zone staged by
members of the Movement for the
Actualization of Sovereign State of Biafra,
MASSOB, and the Indigenous People of
Biafra, IPOB, last Tuesday, calling on the
Federal Government to release their
detained leader, Nnamdi Kanu, the two pro-
Biafra groups, Wednesday, disassociated
selves from acts of arson and violence that
culminated in the razing down of Onitsha
Central Mosque and burning of some
vehicles.
This came as the Inspector General of
Police,Solomon Arase, warned that the
Nigerian Police Force, NPF, will henceforth,
arrest and prosecute persons found to be
engaged in the breakdown of law and order
by way of protests,especially in the old
eastern region.
It would recalled that over 40,000 members
and sympathizers of MASSOB and IPOB, had
last Tuesday,shut down commercial and
business activities in the south-east
geopolitical zone in an avowed stance for
the creation of the sovereign State of Biafra
hinged on perceived injustice,marginalization
and neglect meted to the people of the
region.
In a statement made available to newsmen
by MASSOB Acting Leader, Uchenna Madu
which reads in part,”the setting of Ontisha
Central Mosque,vehicles ablaze and making
of burning fires which depicts violence are
not done by the members of IPOB or
MASSOB under my leadership.
“This unwarranted acts of violence are
perfected by hoodlums sponsored by agents
of the Federal Government to create
impression that non violence and peaceful
pro-Biafra group have turned violent on our
agitation for Biafra. Our oppressors are no
longer comfortable. There is no evidence of
terrorism in our protest. How can we now
resort to violence now that we’re told that
the presidency is about negotiating with
leaders of pro-Biafra group?
“With today’s killing of our members and
injuring many with bullet shots,we are no
longer comfortable with the presidency’s
move for dialogue. Federal Government
move for dialogue is hypocritical and
deceitful. Any Igbo group,organization and
persons negotiating,meeting or dialoguing
with the presidency on our behalf without
our consent or mandate should stop now.
“MASSOB led by Uchenna Madu and IPOB
led by Nnamdi Kanu have never mandated
any person to negotiate for us. Even in this
persecution,arrest,killings,clampdown,
suppression against us by Nigeria
Government,we shall continue and intensify
our non violence agitation for Biafra. For
Nigeria to release their Armed Forces
against non violence,defenseless Biafra
agitators shows their wickedness and the
devilish mind of President Muhammad
Buhari against our people.

Yeye agitators

Even if It was burnt down by them, what do the IG of police have to say about all our ibo brothers killed in bomb blasts by the boko harm. Or is it because we decide to keep ours peaceful?. SMH. just let us "" GO"" and all you problems will be solved. Or better still, give boko haram a place to practice the sharian law and give biafra their own and all this problems will be solved.

Matters Arising

Only If you really Understand what has happened.... Two wrongs can never make a right... served in Kano 2009 specifically...I am a Christian.. of course
from southwest..... Since yesterday that this news broke...I've been
thinking and Praying Silently that God in His infinite mercy should
calm the impeding ranging storm.
Southerners living in the North would have started raining Curses
to the perpetuators of that foolish act because they know they are
going to be the direct victim of actions they know nothing about.
May God Help Us All.

If they have time, the miscreant protestants won't resort to walking down the street with arms, creating chaos, and shutting down of economic activities in the south east. Ipob and massob were afraid of northern reappraisal for devilish acts. What a shame! Who is now the hypocrite and coward? Ans: IPOB and MASSOB.

1. Boko Haram
2. Cattle conflicts
3. Bayelsa, Rivers, Taraba and Kogi political conflicts.
4. Biafra


and we have a President who prefer to travel than attending to critical issues .

They just want to destroy the peace being enjoyed by the southerns in the north for few years now after the burnt quranic saga.I hope they will be able to diff ibo from the yorubas sha by using civil war method of telling them to call TORO which the yorubas can call very well but the ibos will call it TOLO,may be they av R defiency.

Now, they are scared, thought they were ready for war

and boko haram is carried out by igbos in the north.

These touts really take us for fools, don't they?

Just like the guy on Facebook that relentlessly posted Pro-Biafra stories everyday for 4yrs, but then predicted a bombing that came to pass and immediately fellow Ibos who had hitherto been hailing him quickly claimed he was an Ibo impostor and that he must really be Hausa.

You Ibos seem to not only be trouble makers but also extremely deceitful.

If they were the ones that brought down the mosque, am not in support of them but Nigeria is trying make a mountain out of an anthill. But I have FIGURED a better way to end this feud, "FORTY DAYS AND FORTY NIGHTS DRY FASTING TO ASK GOD TO DRY TO THE LAST EVERY DROP OF CRUDE OIL " and you will see buhari begging you people to come take Biafra. And I really mean it.

When you have so much underemployed humans, you get an almost limitless supply of miscreants.
From North, West to the East.

Country's already lawless but no need to act like the extremists up north who will maim butterflies for ulterior views. I hope stuff like this gets nipped quickly.

Anyone who has listened to radio biafra will readily admit that the radio has already created an army of potential "genocideers".
On so many occasions, I have heard callers saying that they are ready to kill people based on their ethnic identity.

Haba!! These people can lie, ehn!! After setting the mosque ablaze, they turned round to blame it on someone else. Well, it happened during their protest, so how come none of the IPOB members on parade saw the perpetrators, and how come they didn't hand over the arsonists to the police??

These guys are afraid, that is why they are now lying through their teeth and trying to deny the fact that they didn't set the mosque and all those vehicles belonging to Dangote on fire. God dey watch all of una...
