MASSOB Insists On Biafran Day Celebrations

The Movement for the Actualisation of the Sovereign State of Biafra,
(MASSOB) has declared there is no going back on the September 13 Biafran
Day celebrations across the South-East.

This is despite recent crackdown by police authorities that has seen
several members of the group arrested for various offences. Recently,
the Inspector General of Police, Solomon Arase, ordered the immediate
arrest of any person or group inciting violence and social disorder
across the country.

John Nwifuru, the Ebonyi South Zonal Leader of MASSOB, said on Tuesday
that the movement would not be dissuaded or cowed by various federal
might which he said were all aimed at intimidating them to abandon the
struggle. He warned there could be reprisal attacks if the federal
government does not stop "the further attack and intimidation" of their
leader, Ralph Uwazuruike, and members of MASSOB.

Mr Uwazuruike and some members of the group were arrested Sunday in
Owerri Imo State by security operatives.
