Movement for the Actualization of the Sovereign State of Biafra (MASSOB) has called for a deep sober reflection over the plight of Biafrans in Nigeria as they celebrate their 21-year anniversary.
This was contained in a statement by MASSOB’s leader, Uchenna Madu who noted that since the movement began in September 13, 1999, countless sacrifices aimed at the actualization of a sovereign Biafra nation has been paid.
He said, “Twenty one years have passed on our long walk to freedom with uncountable sacrifices and huge prices for the actualization and restoration of Biafra from the oppressive government of Nigeria.
“Though MASSOB as a non-violence organization have achieved a lot for Biafra emancipation, we shall never relent or derail. We have been persecuted, arrested, killed, mesmerized, imprisoned and traumatized by aggressive agents of federal government of Nigeria, we shall never retreat nor surrender.
“MASSOB will continue to remember and honour our fallen heroes who willingly laid down their precious lives for the love of Biafra.
“Our members are still languishing in Nigeria prisons at Awka and Onitsha, some are still in the mortuary in Onitsha hospital.
“Our lives are dedicated to the cause of Biafra actualization. We have no future in Nigeria because this geographical expression called Nigeria was designed by the Christian British colonial masters to enslave the people of Christian Biafra forever and favor the Muslim Arewa people.”
The pro-Biafra leader encouraged the federal legislatures to immediately pass the water ways’ bill being sponsored by the federal government, saying it supports every actions and policies of President Muhammadu Buhari administration capable of dividing, disintegrating and bringing Nigeria to her knees.
“Concerning the water bill being sponsored by the president Muhammadu Buhari led-federal government of Nigeria, MASSOB support and encourages that the National Assembly should pass it into law without much deliberation. MASSOB support every government policies, actions and moves that will eventually breaks Nigeria and her forced marriage with unknown partners.
“MASSOB advised President Muhammadu Buhari and his Fulani ethnic cabals not to chicken out of cowardice, they should never relent in securing all the water ways in Nigeria for the establishment and resettling of wandering Fulani ethnic tribe from other West African countries,” he concluded.
