The Movement for the Actualization of the Sovereign State of Biafra, MASSOB, has condemned the killing of an Igbo woman and pastor’s wife, Mrs. Bridget Sunshine, last week in Kano
Vanguard gathered that late Bridget Sunshine hailed from Orodo, Mbatoli local government area of Imo State and the wife of a pastor in Deeper Life Church, Kano.
In a statement by Comrade Uchenna Madu who described the killing of the woman as gruesome and barbaric insisted that MASSOB would no longer tolerate the killing of Igbo anywhere in Nigeria.
The statement read in part: “The unprovoked and insensitive killing of Igbo woman THursday in Kano state is unacceptable to MASSOB. It can never be washed away or treated insensitively as usual.
“The open barbaric gruesome murder of an Igbo mother in Arewaland is a conscious provocation of conscience of Ndigbo.
“Why must the blood of Biafrans continue to be split on Arewaland soil in the name of Islamic Religious fundamentalist and extremists?
“Why do that Hausa Fulani always derive joy in splitting the blood of Ndigbo residing in the Northern Nigeria? Why is it that the Emirs, Sultan, political, Religious and opinion leaders of Arewaland always keep silent and shows no concern on the plight of Ndigbo residing in Northern Nigeria?
“The consciousness of Biafra, present and future existence of our people are daily inspired by Hausa Fulani agenda being consciously executed by Buhari administrative policies.
“Biafrans are not happy and can no longer watch heartless killing of our people. MASSOB warns Igbo traditional, Religious, political and opinion leaders to stop sympathizing with the Hausa Fulani people again, if it were the Hausa Fulani people that were killed in Igbo land, some Igbo cowardice governors will openly and shamefully sympathize with them.
“MASSOB also warns that Deeper Life Church must compensate the pastor husband of the slain Igbo woman because they posted the family to Kano state”.
