The Movement for Actualization of Sovereign State of Biafra, MASSOB,
has slammed some politicians from the South Eastern part of the country,
who recently defected to the All Progressives Congress, describing them
as real enemies of Biafra.
Ex-Senate President, Ken Nnamani, as
well as former governors of Abia State and Old Anambra State, Orji Uzor
Kalu and Jim Nnwobo, respectively, recently joined the APC.
Reacting
however, MASSOB National Director for Publicity, Samuel Edeson, in a
statement in Enugu, said he aligned with the position of Deputy Senate
President, Ike Ekweremadu, who accused the defectors of selfish pursuit.
It added that the defectors had no political value in Igboland.
MASSOB
also slammed a particular defector whom it said was not useful to
either the state or Ndigbo when he led the National Assembly.
“They
(Ndigbo) never benefited anything during his tenure as Senate
President. These men are contract seekers that have no Igbo interest in
mind.
“Time
has come when we will no longer accept these kind of men in Igbo land.
We are going to mobilize all the genuine pro-Biafra agitators and Igbo
youths against these selfish greedy politicians.
“Who among these
men that decamped to APC can beat his chest and boldly say that this is
what I did for my people. Nobody will use Igbo land as battle field
again like NPN/NPP in 1983.
“The Fulani herdsmen killed our people
in Nimbo Uzo-Uwani, killed in Awgu; Umuahia, Delta and other places and
they did not see reasons to speak against these killings of innocent
people.
“They are political prostitutes. When we said last year
that we are going to make this government ungovernable, they thought
that we are going to fight them with arms, or going to the streets to
protest. No, with our diplomatic moves, we have been able to achieve a
lot,” said MASSOB.
