You can’t stop Biafra, MASSOB tells Buhari, Army


The Movement for the Actualization of a Sovereign State of Biafra has condemned a fresh military invasion of the home of Eze Israel Kanu , the father of the leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra, Nnamdi Kanu .
In a statement made available to our correspondent in Awka, Anambra State , on Monday by MASSOB ’ s National Director of Information, Samuel Edeson , the group described the attack as primitive and cowardly .
The group said no amount of such intimidation would stop Biafra agitators from continuing with the struggle , adding that President Buhari “ cannot destroy the Biafra consciousness. ”
It wondered why the army would continue to unleash such “ primitive and brutal attack” against nonviolent Biafra agitators
Edeson described the act as, “Signs of jittery , cowardice and Buhari ’ s government frustration on the eloquent consciousness and realities of Biafra freedom which is being appreciated and acknowledged by international communities ”
Kanu’ s family had on Sunday raised the alarm that soldiers invaded their compound again .
Kanu’ younger brother, Emmanuel Kanu, alleged that the soldiers invaded their home and carted away some household items.
He said the soldiers took away some items like television , generating sets, clothes among other belongings of the family.
He said , “ The international community should prevail on the Nigeria Army to stop raiding our home again . We have been telling the Army to produce my bother whose whereabouts has remained unknown since after the September 14 military invasion of our compound. ”
While confirming having an operation in the area, the military denied removing any household items from the compound.
