Stop Associating Uwazuruike With Biafra Agitation, MASSOB Warns

This follows Uwazuruike’s visit to Kaduna state shortly after the Northern Youths issued a quit notice to Igbos resident in the northern part of Nigeria.

Uwazuruike had met with former Chief of Staff to late Military Head of State, Gen. Sani Abacha, Major Hamza Al-Mustapha to broker peace.

But the group said Uwazuruike had lost the trust and confidence of Igbo people, therefore he had no right whatsoever to speak for the people.

In a statement signed by the leader of MASSOB, Comrade Uchenna Madu, the group while describing Uwazuruike as a confused person, further said that allegation by Uwazuruike that he sacked Nnamdi Kanu from MASSOB, was baseless.

The group stressed that it was Nnamdi Kanu that left him when he found out that Uwazuruike was not sincere with the actualization of Biafra.

MASSOB said, “We have made it clear to the people of Biafra that there is nothing like MASSOB/BIM or BIM/ MASSOB. Our people should not allow themselves to be deceived by Uwazuruike’s antics.

“We are MASSOB, while Uwazuruike is BIM.

“Uwazuruike’s visit to Kaduna for a meeting with our oppressors and enemies of Biafra that had been romancing with him since 2013, is another open evidence that he is not working for Ndigbo or Biafrans.

“MASSOB advises members of BIM who still believe in genuine struggle for Biafra actualization and restoration to immediately leave Uwazuruike’s BIM now and rejoin MASSOB to regain their pride.”
