Founder of the Movement for the Actualization of Sovereign State of Biafra, MASSOB, Chief Ralph Uwazuruike, has revealed that he assured Odumegwu Ojukwu that there will not be another civil war in the quest for Biafra’s sovereignty.
He lamented that the pattern of agitation by some groups, especially that of Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB, and its leader Nnamdi Kanu was capable of causing chaos.
Speaking with Vanguard, Uwazuruike said, “I assured the late Odumegu Ojukwu when he was alive that there would be no other civil war in Nigeria.
“Because he, Ojukwu, was so concerned and wanted some measure of assurance from me that MASSOB would not cause problems in Nigeria, I gave him that assurance
“Self-determination without violence is a fundamental right, we must strive against sowing the seed of discord but do all that will promote peace and justice in Nigeria.
“We have overgrown the era of marching the streets with Biafran flags.
“The main purpose of floating the organization called MASSOB was not to cause crisis in Nigeria.”
