THE
Movement for the Actualisation of Sovereign State of Biafra (MASSOB)
has called on all Igbo to see the new Biafra number plate as their
identity and one of the criteria for them to achieve freedom.
Leader of the group, Chief Ralph Uwazuruike, made the call yesterday in
Nsukka during the launch of MASSOB number plates for motorcyclists in
Nsukka region.
Represented by Aba Regional Administrator of MASSOB, Larry Odimma, he
enjoined members, who own motorcycles not to be afraid of purchasing the
number plates, stressing that they would not be committing any offence
doing so.
“The number plate is aimed at identifying Biafrans and forestalling
criminal activities among people who hide under our name to perpetrate
evil”, he said.
Uwazurike added that the number-plate would be sold to people with
unquestionable character in the region, just as he commended the freedom
being enjoyed by his members in the state.
“The national leadership of MASSOB applaud the freedom being enjoyed
here in Enugu State, unlike what we witness in places like Aba, Ontisha
and Umuahia where our members are constantly being harassed by security
agents,” he said.
He urged for continuity of peace and harmony in the conduct of activities of the group in the state.
Regional Administrator of Nsukka, Mr. Kenneth Okwudili, said the region
expects its members who share in the dream of MASSOB to comply and get
their number-plates, adding that since the creation of Nsukka into a
region in 2010, they have sustained the struggle of MASSOB and the
launch of the number-plate was part of their contributions to the
sustenance and struggle of the actualisation of the Sovereign State of
Biafra.
‘MASSOB members will continue to partner and support the ideas of the
Joshua of our time, Chief. Dr. Ralph Uwazuruike, in his course of
maintaining non-violent approach in actualising Biafra’, he said.
The high point of the event was the inspection of guard of honour and sale of the MASSOB number-plates at N1,500.
