According to MASSOB,
Buhari’s biased fight against corruption did not see major Igbo progressive
leaders as leaders hence he shifted his political muscle against Ike
Ekweremadu, who is the highest Igbo political office holder in his
administration.
The Movement for the
Actualisation of the Sovereign State of Biafra, MASSOB, on Tuesday, July 26,
2016, stated that President Muhammadu Buhari’s grouse against the deputy senate
president, Ike Ekweremadu, is because the Senator is an Igbo man and not
because of party affiliation.
In a statement signed by
its leader, Comrade Uchenna Madu, MASSOB called on Ndigbo to be wary of
President Buhari’s antics against Ndigbo.
The statement read in part:
“MASSOB has discovered the major reasons behind President Buhari’s hatred
against Ndigbo and Biafrans in general.
“Buhari’s grouse against
Ike Ekweremadu is because he is an Igbo man. If a non-Igbo PDP senator replaces
Ike Ekweremadu, Buhari, Tinubu and their likes will relax their nerves. MASSOB
also reminds Ndigbo that this is the time to be your brother’s keeper”
“President Buhari is always
rattled and unsettled whenever he sees, hears or encountered the magnanimity of
economical dominance and booming enterprising exploits of Ndigbo both in
Nigeria and in diaspora.
“Today in Nigeria, Ndigbo
owns 70% of private, economic and social investments in Nigeria, this Jewish
and Zionist advancement of Ndigbo also stretched to many countries of the
universe. Ndigbo is divinely, naturally, humanly, academically, Religiously
destined to lead in every field of nation building.
“Ndigbo and their Biafran
brethren have never been deterred, frustrated or admitted failure in all
endeavors of life, we are always progressives, Republican, conquering every
obstacles of lives including the environment we found ourselves.
“MASSOB declares that any
person or group of people that hates Ndigbo as a result of religious beliefs,
tribal/ ethnic sentiments, personal envy or tutorial orientation will
constantly experience unfulfillment, unprogressiveness and backwardness.
“Biafrans are direct legitimate
descendants of Abraham. God of Abraham (Chukwu Okike Abiama) always blesses
friends of Biafrans and course our enemies.
“MASSOB wish to inform
President Mohammed Buhari that all his political, economical and religious
persecutions of Ndigbo and anti-Igbo policies of his government will never
derail, deter, frustrate or short-change the domineering nature or economical
prowess of Biafrans.
“The more our people are
persecuted, the more we are united and resolute, irrespective of our Billions
dollar investments and establishments in Nigeria, we shall not relent in our
genuine and legitimate pursuit for Biafra restoration.
“MASSOB reminds Igbo
Leaders that Nnamdi Kanu, arrowhead of new Biafra agitation, Benjamin Onwuka,
23 members of MASSOB in Onitsha/ Awka prisons, Chidiebere Onwudiwe are still
languishing in Nigeria prisons and DSS cage including Lotachukwu Okolie who is
been detained in Norway prisons since 2013.
“Igbo Political, Religious,
Traditional, Progressive leaders including Elder statesmen should rise up now
in defence of our people and living heroes; MASSOB shall hold Igbo leaders
responsible if any harm befall on these innocent Biafra detainees”. The
statement concluded.
I don't expect anything less from the Igbo
