It doesn't matter whether they collaborate with police or not. Biafra is a foregone issue and no organisation or group of people should have anything to do with the name Biafra because that was a name for a nation that died at birth. MASSOB represents a movement of secessionists and any member caught deserves a death penalty. Period! |

The Nation gathered that some youths from Obosi, allegedly dressed in MASSOB insignia, invaded Okpoko and demanded tenement fees from residents. Sources said they attacked residents and dispossessed them of their belongings. http://www.thenationonlineng.net/2011/index.php/news/49175-11-feared-dead-many-injured-in-raids-on-massob-offices.html From the above, it would seem that it was a horrible mix up brought on by the attacking of members of the public. Does MASSOB regularly demand tenement fee's? If so, for what? It sounds quite strange. If it is also true that they robbed the Okpoko community, then something has gone terribly wrong with the organisation. Regardless, 16 dead is unacceptable and heads must roll. May the dead RIP. |

However, Nigerian Tribune gathered that trouble started after a large number of youths from Obosi, heavily armed with gun and other sophisticated weapons, invaded Okpoko community to demand tenement rates from the residents, unleashed terror on the community and dispossessed people of their belongings. http://www.tribune.com.ng/index.php/news/42123-16-killed-23-injured-in-onitsha It is getting clear that there is a horrible error somewhere. Its either the security people made a genuine (or deliberate) mistake, or they really went after what they felt was a den of armed robbers. If they claim to have gone for a den of robbers, the fact that MASSOB is a legal organisation would beg the question about why any shooting took place. The civilised mind would have expected a no nonsense meeting with MASSOB reps, followed by arrests. Heads must roll. |

What exactly makes one a member of MASSOB? If people dressed up in MASSOB insignia, invaded Okpobo, demanding tenement fees and terrorizing the community while singing biafra songs, they should be rightfully arrested and dealt with accordingly. Their leaders should be investigated and arrested if necessary, as well. Has MASSOB become a "non violent" terrorist organization, terrorising innocent citizens and shaking them down for money? If so, this is a very sad development. SMH May the souls of the dead RIP |

Rubbish. If someone dresses up like police and sings Nigerian anthem whilst extorting people (which is actually a common site in Nigerian Highway), do you go to police headquarters and kill 16 policemen? Those military men are murderous criminals; they should be fished out and canned to death ![]() |

There is no doubt MASSOB deserves the treatment Nigeria dishes to them. Nigeria and its security operatives have not killed this number of notorious Boko Haram members. It is akin to child’s play for any reasonable fellow to show up in a shootout where only AK47 is allowed with a six shooter. MASSOB claimed it is a non-violent organization while moronic dimwits such as Anambra State Importers Association is bent on denying protective means to Ndigbo, Nigeria should not think twice about the repercussion of such detestable action of the Nigerian Police and Army. |
Re: 16 MASSOB Members Killed, 83 Injured, 500 Arrested In Raid Of MASSOB Offices ! by abouzaid: 4:01pm On Jun 06, 2012 |
@dayokanu, massob is an organisation that colloaorrate with the police in order to avoid this type of trouble, the Op article made it clear that the massob leadership have said that if any of their members have gone contrary of the law, the police could have contacted them to bring such members to justice, also the said tenement dispute did not say that massob was armed. The question now is why did the armed forces open fire on unarmed civillians while armed OPC & boko haram members parade d city of lagos with arms while d police watched. BK Is being begged 4 dialogue, even d fellows that killed coppers in d north are walking free. I just returned from onitsha last three wks, and i can tell u that while all massob members are not saints, the police & military action was in bad taste. They could have met the movement leadership over any dispute with tenants and the issue would have been quickly resolved to their satisfaction. The given reason was just a lame attempt to cover up. So ppl now use police & soldiers to settle tenement disputes? Go to vanguard newspaper and u would realise that dozens of ppl die everyday from what could be best described as human inhumanity to man yet u. From middlebelt to akwa ibom ppl invade each other and kill policemen in d process yes d police does nothing. The same newspaper will show also that 90% of all brutal killings in igbo land is d same police killing civillians. U can glorify all u want but bear in mind that 4 one military extra judicial killing that happened in igbo land, 100 is happening in zaki ibiam,plateau, nassarawa, yobe, kano,bauchi,maidugri and other parts of d north. Who knows, one day u will fall victim too |

Re: 16 MASSOB Members Killed, 83 Injured, 500 Arrested In Raid Of MASSOB Offices ! by PointB: 4:46pm On Jun 06, 2012 |
It's sad that the over-zealous, and poorly trained Nigerian soldiers have once again inflicted sorrows, tears, and blood on unarmed civilian, ostensibly for gathering illegally. Let's us not forget in a hurry that one of the often touted excuses for the boko haram menace was that their leader was killed in cold blood by element of the Nigeria security personnel. The continual murdering of non-violent MASSOB members, may lead to another 'boko haram' incident. Or does Nigeria military, which is currently stretched thin, intend to open another front in the crisis they barely have a grasp of. One who have expected a professional minded body like the military to avoid provoking another front. The military should make no mistake, Igbo have fought a war in the past to defend the live of it's people who were being cut down in similar by soldiers and civilians from other ethnic groups. If need be, Igbo shall not hesitate to defend our people from those who will rather see them bleed! Nigeria will not survive another frontier of the on going crisis. Incident like this, is all it takes to spark one! At this rate, an armed and militant MASSOB will be assured of my spiritual, material, and physical support! |

PointB: It's sad that the over-zealous, and poorly trained Nigerian soldiers have once again inflicted sorrows, tears, and blood on unarmed civilian, ostensibly for gathering illegally. Nigeria as a country is obtuse and cowardly. I have NEVER seen Nigeria act tough against REAL enemies; you can't check history. When Cameroun kept killing Nigerians and Nigerian solsdiers in Bakassi, guess what Nigeria did? Tuck tails between legs because they couldn't face them. And when the idea of letting the world court rule on it came along, Nigeria jumped at the idea! Today Boko Haram is killing hundreds and thousands of Nigerians, and the Nigerian government is killing UNARMED and NON-VIOLENT MASSOB. That is Nigeria, a land of cold blooded murderers and cowards. |

Re: 16 MASSOB Members Killed, 83 Injured, 500 Arrested In Raid Of MASSOB Offices ! by Onlytruth(m): 5:00pm On Jun 06, 2012 |
Ok. Here is my take. I have been shouting myself hoarse that MASSOB is not doing Igbo much good by their stratagems. I have been called all sorts of names by some of my brothers for that, but I still have to state the truth. We Ndigbo are a peculiar tribe (let me not use "special" because of envy) in Nigeria. People envy us and covet us even for some of the most simple things. They plan to kill us at the slightest reason. Nigeria's history is replete with unnecessary shedding of Igbo blood for one stoopid reason or another. Therefore, we are not supposed to live our lives in ways that give our enemies ANY CHANCE WHATSOEVER to come into Igboland to kill us. Because of that, I have always thought that MASSOB's non-violence doctrine is stoopid. I did not say that it cannot work elsewhere o. All I'm saying is that it will not work for us Ndigbo because there are too many haters in Nigeria wanting to kill us. Therefore the time has come for Uwazuruike to either ship MASSOB out of Igboland, or go learn how to earn Nigerian respect. It is irresponsible to be leading hordes who get killed willy nilly in Igboland. These are peoples brothers, husbands, fathers and sons. I am also watching what the so called Igbo leaders both in and out of government will say about this (seemingly)unprovoked mass murder right in the heart of Igboland. I would always advise Igbo folks to stay away from MASSOB until their Modus Operandi is sanitized enough else they will die for nothing. Ekwugo kwa m nke m. ![]() 3 Likes |

Onlytruth: Succinctly put. On the other hand, I hope this is not some grand design by some Boko Haram element in GEJ government to draw us into another needless blood letting. Quite frankly, it is very callous and cowardly to gun down unarmed men for whatever reasons. If this should continue, I would like for MASSOB to discard the non-violence garb, arm themselves to the teeth, and open another front against the Nigeria security apparatus. They can start by burning police stations, and attacking military check points and formation. I strongly think, someone wants to help the boko bastard in the grand scheme of making Nigeria ungovernable. If GEJ, the C-in-C, cannot put a leash on his boys, and understand where he derives power from, why should we care if Nigeria explodes in his watch? |

Onlytruth: Ok. Here is my take. SO you're saying Massob should stand down until they are willing to start bombing, kidnapping and murdering all perceived enemies abi? I hear you. Biafra is a dead dream. holding on to the Biafran flag is treasonous. It's about time the Massob folks were arrested and tried for treason. That is my humble opinion. |
Re: 16 MASSOB Members Killed, 83 Injured, 500 Arrested In Raid Of MASSOB Offices ! by PointB: 5:15pm On Jun 06, 2012 |
Chyz*: I agree with you. If MASSOB has been deemed useless, and ineffective in advancing our cause, it should be jettison and disbanded. I don't like the idea of MASSOB members going about like OPC, and Agberos, extorting money from people here and there. That is not the objective; that is not what they are there for! Certainly leading our people to be massacred like sheep is also not acceptable. MASSOB should shape up, or ship out! They have become a liability! |

See incompetent Nigerian security agents killing unarmed people while BH is killing them and innocent Nigerian like no man's business. If Massob guys commit any crime- as long as they are not exchanging fire with the security men- they should be arrested and charged in court, not shot and killed. Shame on those security men 1 Like |
Re: 16 MASSOB Members Killed, 83 Injured, 500 Arrested In Raid Of MASSOB Offices ! by abouzaid: 5:21pm On Jun 06, 2012 |
@onlytruth, the trailer load of arms & ammunition recently seized in onitsha might have been d needed weapons. Massob & MEND have always worked together, when MEND was in creeks, dokubo always shows visiting journalists his massob visitors and when he was jailed, massob was d only organization that always attend his court hearings on uniforms chanting freedom songs. Now that he is free, he goes on street enlightenment programs with them. Honestly, i believe if uwazurike have any sense, 2015 will witness d emergence of a new front on d war against the nigerian state in d old biafran region. Just think about an ijaw and igbo militia, isn't that a winning combination? |
Re: 16 MASSOB Members Killed, 83 Injured, 500 Arrested In Raid Of MASSOB Offices ! by Dede1(m): 5:27pm On Jun 06, 2012 |
The current MASSOB members should choose between Movement for the Actualization of the Sovereign State of Biafra and Movement for the Actualization of the Sovereign State of “Belle Full”. What business has MASSOB in catching of armed robbers and collection of tenement fees from residents in Okpoko as alleged by some reports? It is even shameful that a place and time of scheduled security meeting of the so-called MASSOB is known to public talk less Nigerian security operatives. This MASSOB crews are pure jokers. If MASSOB wants to be taken seriously, it must denounce the moronic motto of non-violent, engage in serious strategy of business of erecting sovereign nation, become very stealth, acquire serious modern weaponry and seek for funds from well wishers home and abroad. 1 Like |
