The Movement for the Actualization of the Sovereign State of Biafra (MASSOB), has said they will bring down Nigeria should there be any bomb explosion in any part of the Southeast.
Apparently reacting to the discovery of two deadly improvised explosive devices (IEDs) at the Living Faith church in Owerri by the Imo state police, the Biafra group threatened to retaliate if terrorists came close to their zone.
Daily Trust reports that the leader of MASSOB, Chief Ralph Uwazuruike, warned that they will no longer tolerate the mindless killing of Ndigbo in any part of the country, especially in the Southeast.
Uwazurike said, "The position of MASSOB on this matter is firm, we will bring down Nigeria if any bomb goes off in the Southeast."
He insisted that the movement will not hesitate in fighting back the terrorist with equal and decisive force if they attack any part of Igboland.
In May, MASSOB had called on Ndigbos who reside in the northeastern part of the country to come back home following the incessant attacks by Boko Haram in that region.
No fewer than 36 Igbo traders were said to have lost their lives in the deadly twin explosion at Jos Terminus Market, Plateau State in May.
