ONITSHA—THE Movement for the Actualization of the Sovereign State of
Biafra, MASSOB, Tuesday denied a newspaper report that it would lead
President Goodluck Jonathan’s presidential campaign in 2015.
Leader of MASSOB, Chief Ralph Uwazuruike, who spoke to newsmen in Onitsha, described the publication as false and baseless.
He said he had never met President Jonathan to discuss anything about his presidential ambition in 2015.
He said: “The publication was full of falsehood aimed at distracting
MASSOB because there was never a time I met Jonathan with Ojukwu’s
wife, Ambassador Bianca to discuss anything concerning his ambition.
MASSOB has no link with the Presidency because we are not politicians.
We are fighting for the actualisation of our own freedom in a country
where Ndigbo are constantly treated like unimportant people.”
“It was a malicious falsehood by the writer who alleged that
Uwazuruike and Ambassador Bianca Ojukwu went to see President Goodluck
Jonathan in Aso Rock.”
The writer even went ahead to say that Jonathan gave me a brand new
SUV, imagine? I wish to state it categorically clear to all that MASSOB
shall never be distracted by any person or group of persons who hide
under different amorphous groups to attack our noble quest for
freedom.”Chief Uwazuruike called on MASSOB and entire Ndigbo to remain
calm and peaceful, assuring that very soon, events in the nation would
play a very big role in the emancipation of Ndigbo.
