Sequel to the expected #FreeNnamdiKanuNow campaign protest billed for Monday, 20 October, the  leadership of Biafra Independence Movement, BİM, /Movement for Actualization of Sovereign State of Biafra,  MASSOB, Sunday spit fire, warned police not to touch its leader, Ralph Uwazuruoke.

The movement sounded the note of warning, while reacting to the invitation to Uwazuruike by the Imo state Police Command based on the said protest.

In a press release signed and issued to newsmen by the Senior Special Assistant on Media and Publicity/Director of Information to BIM/MASSOM, Chris Mocha, the movement condemned in strong terms, the  police summon extended to its leader, Uwazuruike, and warned – “Don’t Touch Ralph Uwazuruike.”

The release said the invitation, was against democratic principles and, a violation of the leader’s fundamental human rights.

The pro-Biafra group insisted that its leader, and İjele Ndigbo, Ralph Uwazuruike had never committed any offence by volunteering to join a Nationwide  ‘peaceful’ protest for the release of the detained leader of indigenous people of Biafra (IPOB), Nnamdi Kanu.

The police summon according to the statement was a ploy to arrest and possibly detain its leader, and İjele Ndigbo, Ralph Uwazuruike .

Recall that Uwazuruike had over the weekend dragged the İmo State Police Command, and others to  Owerri High  Court to enforce his fundamental human rights.

MASSOB described its leader, Ralph Uwazuruike Esq, as  a  peaceful man who leads a peaceful organization in Nigeria for the past 26 years and has demostrated his penchant for peaceful dialogue and respect for the rule of law while advocating for the Self-determination for Biafra.
