The Movement for the Actualization of the Sovereign State of Biafra, MASSOB, has warned Governor Okezie Ikpeazu of Abia State and a few other politicians in the southeast region against working against the Igbo Presidency agenda come 2023.
The group said they can never forgive any Igbo leader that betrays their collective interest in 2023, irrespective of his position.
MASSOB leadership gave this warning in a statement signed by its National Director of Information, Edeson Samuel and made available to newsmen in Abakaliki, Ebonyi State.

According to the group: “It is very disappointing and unpatriotic that some Igbo political leaders whom Ndigbo gave the mandate to represent Igbo interest will work against the Igbo agenda to clinch the president of Nigeria.
“How could some of our political leaders support a man who openly denied his Igboness, a man whose pathological hatred against Ndigbo is overwhelmingly seen?
“MASSOB warned Igbo leaders to stop their selfish actions that are capable of distorting the overall interest of the southeast region because MASSOB will never tolerate such political selfishness now.
“Governor Nyesom Wike is not interested in aspiring for the presidency, he is an errand boy to his master, Governor Tambuwal of Sokoto State, our Igbo political leaders should know that Nyesom Wike is deceiving them. 2023 is the turn of the southeast to produce the next president of Nigeria.

“These South-East governor’s played the same game in the 2019 general election with General Muhammadu Buhari and the APC ruling government, which they promised Buhari 25% of our vote because of their selfish interest.
“Our intelligence report has revealed that the Governor of Abia State is in agreement with Nyesom Wike, because of the crisis of who should control the state structures and the list of the party delegates that will be submitted to the party national secretariat in Abuja for the incoming primaries.
“MASSOB is making it clear that any governor or national Assembly members from Igbo land found working against any presidential aspirants from South East, shall be treated as saboteurs and a betrayer of his own brother.
“We can never forgive any Igbo leader that betrays our collective interest in 2023, irrespective of his position, we shall mark them”
