Members of the Movement for the Actualization of Sovereign State of Biafra (MASSOB) and Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) celebrated this year’s Christmas on the streets of Aba as they protested the continued detention of the director of Radio Biafra and leader of the IPOB by the federal government.
The protesters had as early as 7.00am gathered at National High School on Port Harcourt Road from where they marched through Cemetery to Azikiwe roads before they proceeded towards the city’s main motor park en-route to Osisioma junction.
They displayed the Biafran flag and sang solidarity songs as they marched along.
Speaking to Sunday Sun during the protest, the coordinator of MASSOB in Abia State, Comrade Anayochukwu Okpala said the protest was against the continued detention of Nnamdi Kanu by the federal government despite a valid court order that granted him bail.
Okpala said the federal government would be making a big mistake if it thinks by detaining Nnamdi Kanu for so long the protests would wane with time.
He assured that what he termed the mother of protests would be carried out in the state after the festivities and warned security agents in the state to steer clear of their members during such protests, stressing that the only remedy would be to release Nnamdi Kanu from detention.
