Biafra Leader On The Run by EmeeNaka: 12:05pm On Sep 03, 2017
3rd September 2017…After breakup announcement, appointment of ministers*.He’s messing up the struggle–MASSOB leader
From Petrus Obi, Enugu

Leader of the Biafra Zionist Federation, BZF, Benjamin Onwuka, who four weeks ago declared himself the President of the Republic of Biafra and named an interim cabinet has gone into hiding.Onwuka went underground to evade arrest by operatives of Department ofState Services who have been on his trail since he held the press conference where he announced the appointment of prominent individualsinto this ‘cabinet’ as ministers, an act that was roundly dismissed by many as comical.Onwuka had in his press conference about a month ago announced the names of respected personalities as members of his cabinet. They include, Prof. Pat Utomi (Foreign Affairs), Professor Chukwuma Soludo(Governor, Central Bank of Biafra) and Ohanaeze President, Chief Nnia Nwodo, who was appointed as Biafra’s Ambassador to the United States. The interim government was to take off on August 1 and last till August 31, 2017.In a recent statement he issued from his hideout Onwuka said: “I’m not claiming to be president on my own. The United States under Obama recognized Biafra on 15th October, 2014. The zionists believe in international diplomacy.“Let me assure those people appointed that the interim government stands until we hear from the White House. So, the interimgovernment and our announcement on Biafra, they are still intact; we are waiting to get a reply from US but the government we formed is intact. Upon the return of President Donald Trump from vacation, Biafra will take off. Obama and Trump will make Biafra to be a reality.“My cabinet members have reacted, some negatively, but I know they will come around; the interim government is alive but we cannot activate it until we get a signal from the White House. But I know that all those saying no now, they will later come around.“Those we appointed from the Middle Belt are part of us; the Middle belt belongs to us, including SouthernKaduna. We are going to give Southern Kaduna statehood and the state would be called Gurara State.“We shall also restore peace betweenCross River and Ebonyi. The boundary dispute is a result of weak government. They don’t care that we are killing ourselves so long as they are taking our oil. But Biafra will not allow any form of boundary crisis. That we can assure our people. There will be absolute peace.”Reacting to Onwuka’s interim government, leader of the Movementfor the Actualization of the SovereignState of Biafra, MASSOB, Mr. Uchenna Madu, dismissed him as a joker: “That is his own pattern. I may not condemn him, for him to say he has declared Biafra and formed his cabinet without consultation, withoutdue process l don’t know what to say.All I know is that we are still in the struggle to restore the ancient kingdom of Biafra. For now we have not achieved Biafra’s sovereignty. Wehave to follow due process; Biafra is not what anybody could just wake up at night and say, I have declared Biafra and formed government. That is rubbish; that makes a caricature of the struggle and we can never support such. Therefore, Benjamin Onwuka is on his own. He is a joker.”Madu spoke further: “Actually those of us in the struggle are supposed to check the excesses in the struggle but we don’t want to create the impression that we have internal wranglings. So if Onwuka likes let him say he has declared Biafra in heaven, that he is the president, no problem. Nobody is contesting the presidency but one thing is certain, one must follow the due process, andfollow it non-violently. Not using violence in the struggle, that is the most important thing. So with his approach I think he is making caricature of himself not even the Biafra cause because nobody is taking him seriously, even the international community, even the people of Biafra are not taking him seriously. So if he likes he can go andrest or try to re-arrange, re-strategize or learn from people like us who havebeen in the struggle for close to 18 years.“He declared himself president and started naming people as members of his cabinet. Some of these people believe in Nigeria and one Nigeria; these are politicians and stakeholders in the Nigeria Project but he named them as members of his cabinet, creating the impression that those people are sponsoring the struggle when they are not. These arepeople who are even against the struggle; tomorrow the DSS will start harassing those people, creating opportunity for the security agencies to start harassing Igbo leaders. And tomorrow if there is opportunity for meaningful support to the struggle these people will shy away, because somebody like Onwuka has messed up the system.”
