Biafra: Igbo Group Condemns Agitation By Nnamdi Kanu’s IPOB, MASSOB

The Igbo Youth Assembly (IYA) has criticised the agitation for a Biafra nation by the likes of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) and Movement for the Actualization of the Sovereign State of Biafra (MASSOB), saying their political protest “has adversely affected the peace-loving and hardworking Igbo doing their legitimate business all over Nigeria”.

In a statement on Monday after its virtual general assembly, the President-General of the IYA, Ifeanyi Nwaudunna, and Secretary-General, Casmir Irekamba, insist that “Nigeria as a nation is better united”.

The statement reads in part: “Nigeria as a nation and country is better united and remains as one indivisible entity. If divided or disintegrated, will lose its glory of diversity, economic, political-military- numerical-technical power and strength.

“It is very unfortunate that this misguided agitation from these Igbo groups has adversely affected the peace-loving and hardworking Igbo doing their legitimate business all over Nigeria. Of what basis will any well-meaning Igbo person call for secession and disintegration of Nigeria?”

IYA’s statement added: “What Igbo need at this moment is to strategise politically towards 2023, form strong alliances across the North and South to be fully involved in national engagements.

“The threat by IPOB, MASSOB and others and their sponsors on secession are not in the best interest of Igbo people, hence such agitation must be jettisoned forthwith.

“No true Igbo leader or patriot will clamour for Nigeria’s disintegration, but would rather seek a united prosperous Nigeria.”
