“President Muhamadu Buhari and his Fulani tribal leaders have always protect and preserve their Miyetti Allah, terrorist Fulani heardsmen and armed bandits because they don’t believe in the coperate existence of Nigeria where equity and true federalism works.
“MASSOB acknowledged the eloquent efforts of Senator Enyinnaya Abaribe in quality representation of Ndigbo in Nigeria, we equally salute Governors Samuel Otorm and Okezie Ikpeazu of Benue and Abia states for their positive reactions against the abduction of Mazi Nnamdi Kanu by the President Muhamadu Buhari led federal government.
“MASSOB condemned any activity that will jeopardize the security and economy of Ndigbo in Nigeria. Our people were harshly subjected to economical and political slavery in Nigeria, we can’t continue to inflict more economic pains on Ndigbo, Igbo economic interest must be considered first.
“MASSOB advice IPOB to reach out and build more synergy with strategic Igbo leaders for release of Mazi Nnamdi Kanu. Declaration of weekly sit at home order and closing of major markets in Igbo land amounts to self economic destruction of Igbo businesses. MASSOB will continue to engage Ndigbo for the release of Mazi Nnamdi Kanu”.
