Biafra Pressure: Southeast Governors Under Attack By MASSOB For Northern Attires by kabsedokenneth(m): 8:36am On Jun 22, 2017 |
The Movement for the Actualisation of the Sovereign State of Biafra has said that there is nothing patriotic about Igbo governors wearing Hausa/Fulani attires to public functions. MASSOB made the assertion in a communique issued on Wednesday, June 21.

Okorocha called on Igbo youths to calm down and redirect their agitation toward the actualization of economic advancement of Igbos rather than asking for a new sovereign nation.

One thing I know for sure is that our leaders both North and South are not in touch with the present realities in the country,the raising generation are not only very tired of the whole system,they are now ready to secure their future,even without these morons that parade themselves as their leaders,who have thoroughly failed them over the decades. |
