Leader of the Movement for Actualization of Sovereign State of Biafra, MASSOB, Chief Ralph Uwazurike, yesterday, charged his Igbo kinsmen to always disregard counter views or opinions expressed by the Imo State governor, Chief Rochas Okorocha with regard to the current efforts by MASSOB to actualize an independent state of Biafra.
He said that such counter- views or opinions always expressed by Okorocha against the actualization of Biafra “portends him as a common saboteur to the Igbo cause.”
In a statement to newsmen in Onitsha, Anambra State made on his behalf by MASSOB’s National Deputy Director for Information, Mazi Chris Mocha, Uwazurike stated that although Okorocha had the constitutional right to express his opinions or views on any matter including that of MASSOB and Biafra actualization, he has no capacity to decide or determine what happened in Igbo land.
According to the statement, “Okorocha is aiding and abetting the All Progressives Congress, APC-led Federal Government in the continued marginalization of Ndigbo. He is also financing the central mosque near the Government House, Owerri, Imo state to the detriment of our people.”
Meanwhile, Uwazurike had again reaffirmed his determination to actualize Biafra as a sovereign, independent nation without violence within his life time, stressing that if he failed to get Biafra, then he would have failed to achieve what is expected of him to do.
Uwazurike, who made the vow at a MASSOB meeting held in Ojukwu Memorial Library, new Owerri, Imo State, said he was proud that no member of MASSOB had been charged for armed robbery, kidnapping or stealing in the course of the Biafran struggle, adding that such a clean slate was a kudos to their non-violent posture.
He boasted that despite the killing of his members by security agencies from 1999-2015, his men had never retaliated such attacks or been found guilty by any court of competent jurisdiction.

ReplyDeleteIt is far easier for you to open a door by using the key to its lock, than by repeatedly banging the door. What Ralph Uwazurike is doing amounts to just banging the door to open the door. If he is really serious about actualising his dream of Biafra, he should follow a process that is supported by the United Nations, which other self-determining groups have followed successfully. He should learn from South Sudan. The first step is to convince his people that they should quit Nigeria, and confirm it through a referendum. That is what the South Sudanese did - 90% of them confirmed via a referendum that they wanted independence from Sudan. It was at that point the United Nations resolution 1514 (XV) of 14 December 1960 kicked in, and the people got the support of the international community to become independent. Uwazurike has not even convinced his people that they should be independent of Nigeria. He is unserious and what he is doing now - just making a lot of noise and maligning the rest of the country and even some of his own people - amounts to banging the door!
