[s]Ralph Uwazuruike, founder of the Movement for
the Actualisation of the Sovereign State of Biafra
(MASSOB), says the federal government is using
Nnamdi Kanu to destroy the struggle for Biafra.
Speaking in the current edition of The Interview,
Uwazuruike accused the Indigenous People of
Biafra (IPOB) leader of waging war against Biafra.
He said it was regrettable that his efforts to
achieve a sovereign state of Biafra “through
peaceful means” were being ruined by Kanu who
has been “sabotaged by security services to
destabilise the struggle for Biafra”.
Uwazuruike said Kanu intends to ruin the Biafra
agitation, starting with the November 18
governorship election in Anambra state which the
IPOB leader has advised his followers to boycott.
“Nnamdi is fighting against Biafra. The security
agencies have seen Nnamdi as somebody with a
high value that they can use,” he said.
“They heard him shouting on radio and they
approached him and he accepted to work with
them.
“No election in Anambra State is aimed at
favouring the All Progressives Congress (APC) to
edge out Governor Obiano through
destabilisation; that’s the only thing and it’s being
arranged by the security agencies, using Kanu.
“I know the mansions that Nnamdi Kanu and
people like him have abroad…let Kanu keep
disgracing himself like he’s doing now, because I
know he’s being funded and I know those funding
him.”
Uwazuruike further described Kanu’s arrest and
bail conditions as “a set up,” wondering why
director of Radio Biafra who was bailed on health
grounds “has not visited any hospital since his
release from detention”.
The MASSOB leader also criticised the
Muhammadu Buhari-led administration for
“lacking the capacity to govern”.
According to him, the All Progressives Congress
(APC) won an election “but didn’t plan” for
governance.
He also accused Attahiru Jega, former chairman
of the Independent National Electoral Commission
(INEC), of “rigging former President Goodluck
Jonathan out of office”.
He said: “If Jonathan had remained the president
of Nigeria till today, the US dollar would not have
exchanged for more than N50. Nigeria will still
beg Jonathan to come back.”
Uwazuruike and Kanu, both Biafra proponents,
have been on warring paths.
In June, he had said he was disappointed that
Radio Biafra which he “handed over to Kanu has
become something else” other than what it was
created for.
