Police Summon Uwazuruike, MASSOB Leader, Over Pro-Nnamdi Kanu Protest by Pakute(op):
The Imo State Police Command has summoned the leader of the Movement for the Actualization of the Sovereign State of Biafra (MASSOB), Chief Ralph Uwazuruike, to appear before its Anti-Kidnapping Unit (AKU) over alleged criminal offences.

Uwazuruike was invited to report at the AKU headquarters in Owerri on Monday, October 20, the same day civil society organizations are expected to hold nationwide peaceful protests demanding the release of detained Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) leader, Nnamdi Kanu.


According to the police invitation letter, Uwazuruike is to answer questions regarding alleged criminal invasion, forgery, and wilful damage.

The letter, jointly signed by ASP John Ebute, ASP Eze Jet, and Inspector Alice Zakari, was dated October 16, 2025.

Reacting to the development, MASSOB described the police invitation as a possible attempt to prevent Uwazuruike from participating in the planned peaceful protest.

In a statement issued on Uwazuruike’s behalf by his Director of Information, Mazi Chris Mocha, and made available to newsmen, MASSOB confirmed that the pro-Biafra leader had been directed to report to the Anti-Kidnapping Unit by 10:00 a.m. on Monday, October 20.

The statement quoted Uwazuruike as saying in a recent viral video:

“I will be part of any peaceful protest for Nnamdi Kanu’s release. This is not about Kanu alone; it is about our collective dignity as a people.
I have no problem with the police invitation. It is clear the summon was intended to prevent me from joining the planned peaceful protest on October 20. I remain firm, calm, and unshaken.”


MASSOB further noted that Uwazuruike, who has consistently advocated non-violence as the guiding principle of Biafra’s self-determination struggle, said his support for the protest was based on conscience and justice, not confrontation.

Sowore, Uwazuruike and others should go to the US and protest for terrorists detained at Guantanamo bay or go to Isreal to protest for detained Hamas. Nigeria will not tolerate protests for a terrorist leader.

Which truth?. The truth that we say and Nairaland bot would ban us?.
Ibos went to their office in the US to beg them to remove ipob from the list. That's why ipob keeps destroying your region because you protect and defend them.

You went to cry and beg at their office grin

According to a statement he released, Kanu’s lawyer said, “Many other persons known to me, especially in America, including particularly the American Military Veterans of Igbo Descent (AVID), which is based in America collaborated with me in formally protesting the alleged ranking to GTI branch office in New York, USA.

Even if they packed their ancestors, they didn't go there to cry and beg, the question you should be asking yourself is why is it only Nigeria that sees IPOB as terrorist group and does not see Fulani herdsmen as a terrorist group and why all the international bodies don't see IPOB as a terrorist group but see Fulani herdsmen as 4th most dangerous terrorist group in the world?

Do you think they don't know that it is fake news? They simply don't care because of their hate for Nnamdi Kanu and i-gbo people. They are agents of hate and mischief.

What else is Nigeria good at but producing terrorists groups? Nigeria is now producing about two terrorist groups a month, may be more. The country is 8th most insecure country on earth, and when the global terrorism index is released later in the year, Nigeria may become no 5 or 6

Its a failed country, it will always produce numerous terrorist groups
