Nigeria, (AN24) – The Traditional Prime Minister of Ndigbo (Onowu Ndigbo) Chief Michael Ozua Okoye has warned that the splinter groups from Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) and Movement for the Actualization of Sovereign State of Biafra (MASSOB) will destroy the efforts of the embattled leader of the IPOB, Nnamdi Kanu if they don’t unite.
Chief Okoye who noted that greed caused the last Biafra war, stressed that it was unnecessary for any pro-Biafra group to come up and claim to have sacked the leader of IPOB Mr. Nnamdi Kanu who has been in detention for committing no crime even after two courts had granted him bail, adding that it was a betrayal of the struggle.
Speaking further, Onowu Ndigbo maintained that the Republic of Biafra can only be actualised with unity and not division.
According to him, “It is greed that caused the splinter groups of IPOB or MASSOB. The new groups want to get rich quick; they are saboteurs who betrayed their brothers due to money. How can another group come out to say that they have sacked Nnamdi Kanu who has been in detention for some time now, when all the Igbo people are calling for his release after courts granted him bail?
“It happened during the war, some people betrayed Biafra because of greed. We lost the civil war due to saboteurs in our camp. These people were hired to cause disaffection among the groups. I want to caution Igbos on the quest for money and that they should take it easy to achieve our aims, we should be happy with what we have, than to look for more, it is greed,” he fumed.
On the herdsmen menace in the South-east, Chief Okoye said: “Buhari should help us to talk to the cattle rearers. They are killing our people for no just cause. There was rearing of cows during Jonathan, Obasanjo and even during military administrations, but it was not like this. Why should the herdsmen be above the law? They are carrying Ak47 openly and nothing happens, and Buhari should look into it and caution them.” Okoye added.
