The Punch reports that MASSOB in a statement signed by Comrade Uchenna Madu on Sunday, October 23 lamented that Igbo leaders have abandoned Ojukwu and that the late Igbo leader is unhappy.

“Ndigbo have abandoned the legacies and visions of Dim Chukwuemeka Odumegwu Ojukwu (Eze Igbo Gburugburu) even his image, personality and name are no longer respected or regarded in the political, economical, social, traditional and religious lives of Ndigbo.

“Ojukwu and our ancestors are not happy with Igbo leaders.”

MASSOB also lashed out at Igbos for developing other region while neglecting their own land and said this was doing more harm than what the federal government was doing.

“Ndigbo have committed more harmful, dangerous and sacrilegious crimes against Igboland with their nonchalant attitude and selfishness against our ancestors.
