The Movement for the Actualization of the Sovereign State of Biafra, MASSOB, has issued a stern warning and further descended heavily on a Niger Delta elder statesman, Alhaji Adamu Ciroma over his comment as regards the agitation for Biafra.
Reacting to the elder statesman’s comment, the leader of MASSOB, Solomon Chukwu, while speaking in a telephone interview with Sunday Sun said it was rather unfortunate that someone as revered as Ciroma would make such statement.
He added that the group is not threatened by the antics of Ciroma and his likes adding that no form of intimidation or threat will deter the group from its main aim of actualising Biafra.
He said: “Anybody can say whatever he likes, we are not threatened, we are not afraid and can not be deterred in our struggle, Biafra must come to pass and Alhaji Adamu Ciroma himself will witness it”.
The MASSOB leader further added that the war for Biafra is the greatest war for the Ndigbo and MASSOB in light of the killings carried out by the Federal government.
“I want to let Adamu Ciroma and his likes know that no agitation for freedom by a people the world over, came without a price. We as MASSOB members have been paying that price and we will continue to pay until we get to the Promised Land
“Even in Ikwere land where I come from, many of my people were initially against me but today, they have realized the truth and moreover have seen the hand writing on the wall and their perception has totally changed”.
