Owerri – The Movement for the Actualisation of Sovereign State of Biafra,MASSOB, has said that it would resist election in the South if the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, Chairman, Prof Attahiru Jega refuses to go.
The MASSOB leader, Chief Ralph Uwazuruike who disclosed this Wednesday at world press conference held at the MASSOB headquarters annex, New Owerri, Imo State, said the resolve of his group stemmed from the various allegations of bias leveled against the INEC boss.
Jega…INEC boss
In his address entitled Jega Must Go, Uwazuruike known as the Ijele Ndigbo said “it has become increasingly worrisome that despite strong allegations of bias against the INEC boss, Attahiru Jega, he ,Jega,is still preparing to conduct the forth coming general elections.
He said that the worry stemmed from the fact that the election conducted by the INEC boss would lack credibility and would unavoidably put the nation into serious crisis.
“In such crisis as usual the safety of live and property of Ndigbo in the North and other parts of Nigeria will be targets for destruction.
“From the onset, Jega was not prepared for free and fair elections. He demonstrated that by his infamous 30,000 polling units, where he allotted more than two-third of the polling units to the North. Despite public outcry, the Senate also passed a resolution stating that the polling units should not be used. Still Jega went ahead and converted the polling units to voting centres in the North,” he said.
The MASSOB leader also pointed out that Prof Jega was able to distribute more than 90 per cent of the Permanent Voters’ Cards,PVCs, in the North, including Yobe, Borno and Adamawa states were there are raging insurgency while he failed to distribute 50 per cent of the same in the South before the elections were shifted.
He, therefore, said that even when the elections were shifted, there are an avalanche of allegations that Jega would be biased in the conduct of the March and April elections.
“The Governor of Plateau State, Mr Jonah Jang has taken INEC to court based on the fact that the PVCs meant for distribution in his state is yet to arrive. Besides, other states governors are still complaining that PVCs meant for their states are yet to be printed.
“Jega wants to organise a kangaroo election where he intends to pronounce his preferred candidate the winner of the election.
“This much has been stated by the leaders of the South-East, South-South Leaders Forum led by Chief Edwim Clark. The Forum also exhibited evidences of the minutes of meetings by Jega and members of Northern Elders Forum. Till date Jega is yet to refute the allegations,” he said.
Uwazuruike said that his group was disturbed by the catastrophe his agenda might provoke, saying that the impending calamity could be avoided by Jega quitting.
His words: “Inasmuch as many believe that Jega has compromised, the only option left for him is to quit. He is not the only person that can conduct election in Nigeria. Any national commissioner of the INEC can do so.”
He disclosed that the people of the South-East, South-South and South-West have passed a vote of no confidence on Jega.
“If Jega so insists in conducting the elections he may well conduct the forthcoming elections only in the North. Jega cannot conduct a pre-determined election for the South,” vowing that there would not be any election in the South if Jega insists on remaining to conduct the polls.
The MASSOB leader warned that if the upcoming election is not well managed it would snowball into crisis, which he said would see the Igbo as major casualty.
He insisted that Jega has a moral obligation to quit now because of the many allegations against him on bias, pointing out that former electoral umpires like Abel Guobadia and Prof Maurice Iwu had in the past quit three months before their terminal date and elections still held as scheduled.

Well what more can I say but








GEJ TILL 2019

Why fear PDP when you claim you will defeat them. Defeat PDP just as they defeated you in 2011!

You don't have hoard the PVC's of some people in the north, some states, etc just to give one person an upper hand. Left for me, let us use both PVC and TVC if this election will go down well.

Massob bunch of miscreants.

What is massob or who are the massob? Massob my anus. The igbo nation think they have any relevance in Nigeria politics. When they endorsed Jonathan as their presidential candidate, they were acting as though they can make him win the election all on their own, they in particular did not give regard to the importance of the Yorubas, now Jonathan has realised that the allies of the eastern states and the south south cannot win him an election, he's begin to run around the Yoruba elders to lobby them with dollars. One thing the Yoruba has proving is that they are relevant in Nigeria politics and this fact they have proving for years, the igbos has always be following other tribes to remain relevant, so massob should disappear to their land and begin to play local champion there.
