IPOB: No Sit-At-Home On Election Day – MASSOB Declares

The IPOB group led by Simon Ekpa issued a sit-at-home order, which has been criticized by the Movement for the Actualization of the Sovereign State of Biafra (MASSOB).

In a statement released on Wednesday, Samuel Edeso, the National Director of Information for MASSOB, urged the residents of the South-East to cast their ballots in large numbers for the candidate of their choice.

“There shall be no sit-at-home on the days of elections,” MASSOB declared in a statement.

The body advised Ndigbo to ignore every call to boycott the election, noting that those giving such orders are enemies of Igbo race.

The statement partly read, “Do not allow anybody to deceive you in the name of Biafra, because we know the real Biafra agitators and those paid to create confusion in our land.

“MASSOB insists that election must hold in Igbo land because we cannot allow the enemies of Ndigbo to destroy our God-given land.

“It is clear that some enemies of Ndigbo have bought over some of our brothers, brainwashed them and turned them against their own people, that’s why they went about killing our own people, destroying our economy and making life difficult for our people.

“MASSOB wish to make it clear that as we move on with the Biafra project, which is the restoration of the Independent State of Biafra, we will not allow Igbo land to remain in vacuum, that is why we advise Ndigbo to go out and vote for their preferred candidates on the 25th day of February 2023.”
