In a statement in Awka, MASSOB insisted on its non-violence stance, adding that the organisation had no intention or plan to indulge in acts of violence or terrorism.

The statement by the national secretary of MASSOB, Mr. Ibem Ugwuoke, read: “The rumoured plan to attack Anambra State headquarters of DSS with explosives and bombs by pro-Biafra agitators is not achievable.

“It is a suicide mission that will derail our principle of non-violence and peaceful agitation.

“MASSOB warns other pro-Biafra groups to resist and avoid activities that will endanger the lives of their members because hundreds of lives of gallant Biafra agitators had been lost unnecessarily.

“We cannot heat up the polity now that millions of Biafrans are in their respective villages celebrating Christmas and upcoming new year.

“The rumoured plan to attack Nigeria security outfit is orchestrated by rumour mongers and enemies of Biafra, who always delight in blackmailing the actualisation of the struggle for Biafra.”

MASSOB warned desperate politicians who, it alleged, were planning to use thugs and cultists in disguise as pro-Biafra agitators to cause mayhem in Igboland, especially in Anambra State because of election, to desist from such destructive ambition and resist illegalities that would discredit the image of pro Biafra groups.

As a young dynamic business and entrepreneurship writer, and author cum small business owner, what came into my mind as we navigate the storms of COVID-19, was a common English phrase Adages, Proverbs, first recorded in Fuller’s Gnomologia, 1732: ‘A stitch in time saves nine’ which was translated to literally, solve the problems right now! Why procrastinating? If we, as a nation wants to break away from past mistakes, and present mistakes, we should hold the bull by the horn right now. And avoid the roads of political expediency. That is exactly what the stitch in time simply stood for. Promptly address issues posed by Coronavirus. By quickly sewing up of a small hole or tear in a piece of material, so saving the need for more stitching at a later date when the whole ha...
