Biafra: Uwazurike,do Not Declare Biafra On Feb 20-itse Sagay by MrAnalyst: 7:22pm On Jan 11, 2016 |
Prof. Itse Sagay (SAN), a constitutional
lawyer and Chairman of the Presidential
Advisory Committee on Corruption has given a
stern warning to Movement for the
Actualization of the Sovereign State of Biafra
(MASSOB).
The Senior Advocate of Nigeria on Sunday,
January 10, warned MASSOB members against
declaring independence on February 20, 2016.
Recall that leader of MASSOB, Ralph
Uwazuruike had announced plans to set up a
parallel government in the South-East and
South-South geopolitical zones. He said
elections would hold on February 20 into wards,
provinces, districts, regions and zones of the
South-East and South-South, which he
declared as Biafran territories.
According to him, Biafra would also introduce
its currency, the “Biafran Pound.”
Uwazuruike had also expressed optimism that
the Biafran National Electoral Commission
would hold a credible election.
Sagay in his warning said such an act would
amount to treason which is a grievous crime,
adding that any election that is not
constitutional is tantamount to overthrowing
the government in power.
“That (proposed election) is sheer treason
because the constitution is very clear that you
cannot come to power other than through the
provisions of the constitution. So, anybody
doing that now is not only breaching the
constitution but is also committing treason.
“They will all be rounded up and detained and
charged. And let no one cry on their behalf
and make noise about human rights because if
you want to overthrow the state, you should
know that anything can happen after that
and you will face the consequences,” he said.
Prof. Sagay recently hinted that Biafran
agitation became so intense after the
immediate past administration of president
Goodluck Jonathan because the Igbos are
trying to intimidate President Muhammadu
Buhari into ceding positions they do not merit.
The lawyer also disclosed that he received
insults and death threats from Igbo people for
expressing his opinion on the renewed
agitation for Biafra republic. Source: www.anambrariansnews.com.ng/?p=22984 cc: Lalasticlala |

Uwazurike might mess everything up. I don't know what he's trying to do now,he is not military,he's not a militant,then what is he trying to achieve now. This might scuttle IPoB plans. 1 Like |

MrAnalyst: Who's attacking? Lol. The message is clear whether said or unsaid, because Kanu's current travails is enough to knock sense into any silly secessionist. |

Another problem is that Uwazurike has a long standing history of corruption-everybody knows he sold out. He'll likely bring corruption into the whole thing-something I wouldn't bother about if IPoB were in charge. Uwazurike should just get lost! 1 Like |

We are gladly waiting for Feb 20. I hope the gully eroded part of the land of the dawning sun will not be filled up with body bags of rebels. No one is against creation.of Biafrau.d but you must go through the proper channel. Anarchy will begat Anarchy Madness will definitely begat madness too. 1 Like |

Don't warn the Biafrans. The consequences of Ojukwu's failed Biafran war will be a kid's play. |

explorer250: I'm tired of this man. He might single-handedly ruin everything,I can't understand what Uwazurike is getting at. Let's wait and see. |
