Nigeria's 100 Years Existence Ends This Year..MASSOB

THE Movement for the Actualisation of the Sovereign State of Biafra (MASSOB), on Wednesday, said Nigeria’s existence as an entity no longer legal, adding that it has expired.

According to its national director of information, Uchenna Mmadu, in a document issued to newsmen on Wednesday, the group said the expiration of Nigeria as an entity was based on the expiration of the amalgamation of Southern and Northern protectorate by the then British colonial masters in 1914.

Mmadu said the amalgamation by the British was to be experimented for 100 years, to know if it was going to work or not, adding that now, people of Southern and Northern Nigeria must come together to enter a new agreement under their own terms.

He said though the document was kept secret, it was generally known to the ruling class, scholars of political science and law, as well as the government of the United Kingdom.

“There has been consistent efforts by the Nigerian government to keep the knowledge out of the public, as it may lead to agitation for breaking the country into two.

“The awareness of the document and the closeness of 2014 has been causing panic among the Northern elite; this panic was behind the previous comment by the Senate President that Nigeria will not break up when the late president of Libya, Muammar Gaddafi, called for break-up of Nigeria.

“It was also behind the warning by NBA president in Benin this week that Nigeria may break up. Even President Goodluck Jonathan is nervous about this fact; remember that he kept on saying that Nigeria will not break up.

“Also, it was the real reason behind the Northern governors’ security meeting in Kaduna, according to our secret intelligent agencies.

“All these sudden talks about Nigeria breaking or not breaking up by the political leaders, including the president, show how anxious they are about the implications of the document and the closeness of 2014,” Mmadu said.

Mmadu recalled that the knowledge of the document was behind the prediction by American diplomats that Nigeria would break up before 2015, adding that the United States (US) army was also preparing on how to respond to the possible break-up of Nigeria.

He said Nigeria leaders were hypocrites, as no ethnic group believed in the existence of Nigeria.

“How can we continue to deceive ourselves that we love Nigeria while about 12 northern governors introduce Islamic religions law (Sharia) as their state constitutional law?

“Some state governors have introduced their coat of arms, flags, anthem and other ethnic identities. Some persons in Nigeria are more powerful than Nigerian constitution and the law.

“Corruption is being celebrated in high and low places of Nigeria and the judicial system is so weak that it has become a willing tool for witch hunting,” he said.

He maintained that the implication of the expiration of Nigeria’s amalgamation was a clarion call to all ethnic pressure groups to rise in defence of their people, culture, tradition and future, in order to be free from mental slavery.
