The Movement for the Actualization of
the Sovereign State of Biafra, MASSOB, has warned the nation about the
possibility of another civil war over the incessant killings of Ndigbo
in the Northern part of the country.
MASSOB leader, Chief
Ralph Uwazuruike who issued the warning while reacting to Monday bomb
blast at a motor park in Kano stated that Ndigbo would be forced to
defend themselves from the recent killings in various parts of the
North.
Uwazurike noted that the Igbo had been pushed to the wall
by the Boko Haram insurgency, adding that the people would be left with
no other option than rise to the occasion to defend themselves.
He
said: “I am ready to declare another civil war in this country if this
killings and other senseless activities on Ndigbo continue like this
because I know that it was this type of massacre that brought about the
first civil war in Nigeria.”
“I am disappointed in our people,
because when they were being slaughtered, I brought out buses to bring
them home, but they refused to come home and keep living in the North.
“What
I did was to safeguard their lives because their lives were in danger.
But I want to warn President Goodluck Jonathan that there is limit to
everything. Ndigbo can no longer continue to allow themselves to be
senselessly killed in the North.
“We are not cowards because I
believe that it was this type of senseless killings that prompted the
civil war and we are aware of the consequences of the ongoing
provocation, but I must warn, that Ndigbo are not cowards and will react
if pushed to the walls because there is limit to everything,” he said.
Meanwhile,
it was gathered that five luxury buses belonging to Gobison, Ezenwata
and Chimezie transport companies were affected in the bomb blasts.
