Leader of the Movement for the Actualization of the Sovereign State of Biafra, MASSOB, Chief Ralph Uwazuruike, has disowned the Director of the pirate Radio Biafra, Nnamdi Kanu, who was arrested yesterday by operatives of the Department of State Security, DSS.
Uwazuruike, who spoke through his Assistant Director of information, Mr. Sunday Okereafor, in Owerri on Monday, described Kanu as a rebel who had long been expelled by MASSOB for inciting violence among members.
Noting that Kanu had been summarily dismissed for breaking the group’s nonviolence approach, the MASSOB leader insisted that “Kanu’s arrest has nothing to do with the struggle for a sovereign state of Biafra.”
He went on to dismiss speculations that MASSOB was behind the arrest of the Biafra Radio boss, adding that the movement does not meddle into unnecessary matters.
