The group insisted that there won’t be peace in Nigeria except President Muhammadu Buhari paves way for the realization and independence of Biafra in the country. In a statement by the leader of MASSOB (BIM) in Ebonyi South zone, Mr.  Sunday  Ezaka, the group wondered why Igbo are constantly being killed in different parts of the country since President Buhari-led government came on board unlike previous administrations. He also blamed the current situation of Ndigbo in  Nigeria on politicians from Igbo extraction as they are only concerned about themselves and not the collective interest of the entire Igbo nation.

The statement read in part: “No Biafra, no peace in Nigeria. Our people were killed in Southern Kaduna, over 800 persons and there is still no official statement from the President of this nation. What is more important in this world if not the lives of fellow citizens? “Our people are being killed for no reason and I don’t know if President Buhari and his cohorts are planning another civil war against us in Nigeria. When former President Jonathan was in Aso Rock, we never heard of such killings. Enough is enough. Let him bear in mind that the United Nations, UN, is watching and very  soon, he will be charged for genocidal activities against Ndigbo.” Cleric blames killings on FG’s delay Meanwhile, Anglican Bishop of Oleh Diocese, Delta State, Rev John Aruakpor, has blamed the escalation of the ethno-religious crisis in Southern part of Kaduna State on the delay of the Federal Government in getting requisite information needed for thorough appraisal and resolution of the crisis. Speaking during the diocesan monthly “Restoration Mountain” at St. Paul’s Cathedral, Oleh, Isoko South Local Government Area, Delta State, the cleric lamented the massacre of innocent Christians and stressed the need for the leadership of the country to make conscious effort to attend to the need and aspirations of the people at the appropriate time.
