Re: MASSOB Introduces ‘biafran Income Tax’ by dederocs(m): 3:25pm On Feb 04, 2013
geeez: The Movement for the Actualisation of the Sovereign State of Biafra, MASSOB, yesterday said it will start collecting Biafran Income Tax from Ndigbo, beginning from February 16, 2013.

The new move by MASSOB was contained in a statement sent to National Mirror by its Director of Information, Comrade Uchenna Madu.

This development was coming at a time when MASSOB is predicting that Nigeria will disintegrate and cease to be a country at the end of 2014.

In the said statement, Madu said the introduction of 2013 Biafran income tax by their leader, Chief Ralph Uwazuruike, was part of the ongoing consolidation of MASSOB’s government structures and diplomatic relations.

Shedding light on the extent they will go in collecting the tax, Madu said; “The collection of 2013 Biafran income tax will commence on February 16, throughout Biafra and Nigeria, where Biafrans reside, it is a mandatory tax, it is a mark of respect and honour to Biafra, a mandatory obligation for all Biafrans.”

He said for now, MASSOB as a genuine organisation has been busy establishing Biafran government, through the creation of regional structures and consolidation of diplomatic relations.

The director of information, who said that consistency is always their watchword, assured that as Biafrans that they shall never relent in their struggle or be discouraged by the waves of distraction around them.

Speaking to National Mirror on the issue of who will collect the tax on their behalf, Madu said; “Our security will go out to collect it, they will go to the markets and streets, in public places and other relevant places to collect the tax, our people are willing to pay, very willing, we have been announcing it and the response from people have been encouraging.”

The MASSOB spokesman urged the people to lend their support to the group, because Biafra is around the corner. He predicted that Biafra will bring the comfort and consolation seriously needed by every Igbo man.

Madu, who was full of optimism when he spoke to our Correspondent, said they don’t for see a clampdown from security agents, because what they are doing now does not concern them, stressing that they will not be deterred if the government starts to harass MASSOB agents again.

Sounding optimistic, Comrade Madu continued, “Government will never interfere, they won’t, this is about the people, government can never stop Ndigbo from paying Biafran tax, this is purely an income.”

He said they have now introduced the income tax, since the struggle is reaching its climax, when the organisation is putting in place government structures.

Speaking on when they hope to achieve their major objective of an independent and free Biafran state, Madu, who contended that they have no fixed time-frame for the realisation of their goal, however, maintained that Nigeria can break up any moment from now.

“That CIA prediction is certain, anything beyond 2014, Nigeria is living on expired ground, because, there will be no more anchor to hold Nigeria,” Madu said.

Lai lai! For where! Nobody should pay any goddamned tax o!

Anybody paying tax to any entity other than the Federal Republic of Nigeria is doing so at his own foolishness.

If they mean annual/monthly dues for their association, that one is different, but TAX? Taaaahh! who dash monkey banana?
How will they even go about it, do they have the data of all Igbos in Nigeria?
Will it be a house-to-house esusu collection? LOL
Or will they be deducting it from their salaries? How?

Mad Cow: Dumb Niggas!





I have said it that the government should declare MASSOB a terrorist organisation and permit the Police to shoot them at sight.

I want the Federal Government to use these MASSOB folks as weapons training dummies for the armed forces and Police. If anyone is found flying the Biafran flag, shoot them dead. Anyone found inside a building that has the Biafran flag should be shot dead. Anyone found wearing Biafran colors should be shots well. Any congregation that is convened under Biafra, should be wiped out. Men, women and children... if an animal is involved in Biafra, kill it as well...


These Biafran leeches are now officially an embarrassment to progressive Ndi Igbos.
i thought it was a person talk. Never new it was another mad cow that those fulani boys are looking for.

Re: MASSOB Introduces ‘biafran Income Tax’ by Onlytruth(m): 5:50pm On Feb 04, 2013
Unless there is something NEW about taxes that I don't know, I believe that this is a VERY BAD IDEA.

First, it will allienate Ndigbo from MASSOB because I can bet my last penny that no one likes paying taxes, even in developed countries. So, MASSOB is walking a minefield here. That is even more the case when they MASSOB have contributed ZERO to the purses of people in Igboland. An organization that wants to liberate people should not start by adding their own YOKE to the people's neck.
What I expected MASSOB to do (if they are serious about Biafran independence) is to seek funding from RICH Igbo and other non-Igbo Biafran supporters. If they are honest enough and have enough integrity and probity, I believe that they will get funding, and make use of the funds judiciously.
Imagine people paying Nigerian income tax, only for MASSOB to show up again asking for tax! angry I don't understand the mindset of these MASSOB people, honestly!
Must they always start their campaigns by sacrificing Igbo (whether blood or tax!)? Can't they "liberate" us without they focusing on US (Igbo folks) instead of the enemy?

Scratching my head angrily! angry

I support Biafra too even though I'm Yoruba. Staying together is not by force jare. Personally I'm tired of this Nigeria cos we're just holding down one another.

BTW, the taxes/levies should be collected in $$$ otherwise it'll be the start of another round of problems with Nigerian govt.

Godspeed Biafra!

You may be referring to the war, but believe me no nation has survived two Civil wars. I support Biafra Project, have faith in MASSOB, but disagree on this move. Certainly 'tax collection' is not the only way you can make people aware of impending Nigeria doom.

Why?
I don't believe in forced association
I have always argued that Taiwan should not be part of China by force
If Igbos want to leave, why not?
They should give security guarantee not to gobble up minority neighbours
Period!
