We will continue with our anniversary rally – MASSOB dares police



In defiance of efforts by the police to curb its activities through a ban, the Movement for the Actualization of Sovereign State of Biafra, MASSOB, has vowed to proceed with its planned rally in commemoration of the movement’s 16th year anniversary on Sunday.

It would be recalled that the police had last week launched a raid on members of MASSOB as preparations picked up for today’s anniversary celebration. The security operatives swooped on the Freedom House headquarters of MASSOB located in Okigwe in Imo State and took away about 200 of its members.

MASSOB had claimed that the police from Zone 9 conducted the raid on its members, even as it raised the alarm that it could not readily establish the whereabouts of its leader, Chief Ralph Nwazuruike.

Addressing newsmen yesterday, the Ikwuano Regional Administrator of MASSOB, Davidson Ohaegbu, told newsmen in Umuahia that part of activities lined up to celebrate its anniversary were church thanksgiving service and peaceful rally.
