MASSOB threatens showdown with SSS over detained leader

AWKA—THE Movement for the
Actualization of the Sovereign State of
Biafra, MASSOB, has threatened a
showdown with the State Security
Services, SSS, if its regional leader for
Awka North, Mr. Tony Nwodo, was not
freed within 48 hours.
As a result, the movement has given the
SSS 48 hours to release one of its leaders
or take responsibility for what ever
action the group might take.
MASSOB Director of Information, Mr.
Uchenna Madu, said yesterday that the
SSS arrested and detained Nwodo since
last Tuesday on the allegation that he
claimed to be the Governor of Anambra
State.
He warned that the organization would
take any action it deemed fit if Nwodo
was not released immediately.
