MASSOB Leader Speaks On Fight Between Asari Dokubo, IPOB

Leader of Biafra Independence Movement and Movement for the Actualisation of Sovereign State of Biafra (BIM-MASSOB), Chief Ralph Uwazuruike, has distanced himself from the face-off between the former leader of Niger Delta People’s Volunteer Force (NDPVF), Alhaji Mujahid Asari Dokubo with the members of Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB).

In a statement issued in Owerri Friday by the Director of information and Senior Special Assistant to BIM/MASSOB on Media and Publicity, Mazi Chris Mocha, Uwazuruike said that he is only interested in how Nnamdi Kanu can be released from the DSS dungeon and not what Asari Dokubo said via social media platforms.

Uwazuruike urged the public to separate him from anything concerning Asari Dokubo.

He said: “I do not even have Asari Dokubo’s phone number, let alone talking with him on phone.
It has gotten to about three (3) years now since we last talked either on phone or on friendly conversation”.

Uwazuruike asked those accusing him of conniving with Alhaji Asari Dokubo to go and verify from Asari if both of them had spoken as friends for the past three (3) years now.

He said: “If you had a problem with Asari Dokubo, you should better clarify that with him and not dragging Ralph Uwazuruike into the matter”.

According to Uwazuruike, he is a Non-violent crusader, known all over the world adding that everyone should fight his own battles, carry the cross and should not call him to do that for them.

He recalled how he visited the leader of Niger Delta People’s Volunteer Force (NDPVF) in 2002, the former militant leader in Port Harcourt where he told him that the issue of Biafra was not one project to be achieved through Non -violence but through violence which according to him is the only language that Nigerian Government understood.

He said: “So Asari had never worked with me on the path of Non-violence struggles and when he was championing the cause for Niger Delta people, he took up arms and ammunition against the Federal government which everyone could testify to it”.

Uwazuruike who holds traditional title of Ijele Ndigbo described Asari as a man who matches his words with action and urged those who are insulting Asari Dokubo on social media platforms to go and face him squarely.

He added that Asari Dokubo’s comments asking the Federal government not to release Nnamdi Kanu was his personal opinion as guaranteed by the 1999 Constitution as amended, noting that his opinion can not override those of the apex Igbo socio-cultural Organizations, Ohanaeze Ndigbo and Southeast Governors, among others that have been demanding for his release.

The MASSOB leader insisted that whatever internal differences he or any other Biafran activist might have with Nnamdi Kanu should be settled amongst them while calling on everyone to join hands with him to see for the release of Nnamdi Kanu.

He said that he has been pre-occupied with the process that will lead to the release of the leader of indigenous people of Biafra, IPOB, Mazi Nnamdi Kanu from Department of State Services (DSS) custody and not talking about irrelevant matters.

Uwazuruike appealed to the Federal government to release Nnamdi Kanu, adding that it is against the rule of law to hold someone incommunicado for this so long in DSS facility, even after several courts of competent jurisdictions had ordered his immediate release.
