The foremost pro-Biafra group, Movement for the Actualisation of the Sovereign State of Biafra ( MASSOB) has announced that the November 6 Anambra governorship must hold as it posed no threat to Biafra actualisation.
In a press statement issued and signed by its National Director of Information, Comrade Samuel Edeson, the group under the leadership of Comrade Uchenna Madu, had after its national meeting presided by their leader declared as follows:
“That having studied the political, economical, religious and social implications of non-having a credible election in Anambra State and the political mourning that may erupt by imposing a non-representative of Ndi Anambra as their governor, MASSOB declares that the Anambra Governorship election slated on November 6th 2021 will hold as announced by INEC.
“That the Anambra State governorship election must be peaceful and, credible as MASSOB have issued out instructions to our 21 LGA coordinators, three senatorial zonal leaders, 310 provincial administrators and all MASSOB securities to assist in effecting a peaceful and credible election in Anambra State.
“That MASSOB has encouraged the Independent Electoral Commission to go ahead without distraction in conducting the governorship election this weekend.”
The statement read further: “That MASSOB advised the people of Anambra State and other residents in Anambra to exercise their fundamental and constitutional rights of electing their next governor because Anambra political space will never be in a vacuum.
“That MASSOB position on this weekend Anambra governorship election is for the interest of Ndigbo, we can never allow or give unfortunate legal room for outsiders to dictate our political and economic future.”
Edehson, however, explained that “That MASSOB position does not mean derailment of the Biafra struggle for actualisation and restoration. We must always consider the overall interest of Ndigbo first before group or individual interest.”
