The Movement for the Actualization of the State Of Biafra (MASSOB), on Wednesday, condemned the use of pro Biafra activism to create political instability and chaos in Igbo land.

Condemning the actions of those it described as disgruntled and sponsored persons residing in diaspora and using online directive "unleashing their personal minded narratives," using the pro Biafra activism and even trying to use the upcoming Anambra governorship election as a yardstick.

MASSOB Leader, Uchenna Madu in a statement, assured that the group would never allow such deceit to scale through.

Insisting that the Anambra State governorship election must be peaceful and credible, he warned "anti pro Biafra activists including those hiding in diaspora to stay clear of Biafra Land now."

Madu's statement reads on parts, "Several times during elections in South East, they always come up with this sympathetic deceit of sit at home during election days with claims that such futile exercise enhances Biafra actualization but MASSOB always countered and stop them. This time they will fail.

MASSOB assured residents of Anambra State that the November 8, governorship election in Anambra State must hold because we have gone a long way underground mobilizing and sensitizing the state residents including members of pro Biafra groups to engage in the upcoming governorship election.

MASSOB members and other pro Biafra groups are coming out to participate in the election with our massive support to the competent and credible candidate that is full of Igbo blood.

MASSOB also encouraged the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, to go ahead without distraction in conducting the governorship election."

Explaining why the group is in full support for the election to be conducted MASSOB said, "Having studied the political, economical, religious and social implications of not having a credible election in Anambra State and the political instability and chaos that may erupt, we insist that the Anambra State governorship election must be peaceful and credible

That MASSOB advised the people of Anambra State and other residents in the state to exercise their fundamental and constitutional rights of choosing their next governor because Anambra political space will never be in vacuum.

That MASSOB position on Anambra governorship election is for the interest of Ndigbo, we can never allow or give unfortunate legal room for outsiders to dictate our political and economic future.

That MASSOB position does not mean derailment of the Biafra self determination for actualization and restoration. We must always consider the overall interest of Ndigbo first before a group or individual interest."
