SHOWDOWN : MASSOB LAUNCHES TRAVEL PASSPORT

THE Movement for the Actualisation of the Sovereign State of Biafra (MASSOB) has officially launched its international passport. The launch was done on Tuesday at Okwe in Onuimo, Imo State. Speaking at the launching ceremony at Okwe, the leader of MASSOB, Chief Ralph Uwazuruike, said that they could use the passport to travel to any part of the world, including Abuja and Lagos.

According to him, if any member of MASSOB was killed for possessing the passport, members of the movement would fight for his cause. He told his members, who came from all over the country to witness the launch, that it was better for them to die where people would fight their cause than to die in a country like Nigeria, where nobody would fight for their interests.

Chief Uwazuruike also told his members, who besieged the venue of the launching that he would be leading a powerful delegation to Ghana, where they were expected to meet President Barrack Obama.

Answering questions from reporters, he said the Niger Delta militants should not have accepted amnesty since they had not been found guilty of any offence.

Uwazuruike urged the militants to go ahead and blow up more oil pipelines in order to get what lawfully belonged to them. He said MASSOB members would register their presence in Enugu at the burial of Chief Christian Onoh, former governor of old Anambra State.
