The Movement for the Actualisation of Sovereignty State of Biafra on Thursday said only God could stop the objectives of the group, not President Muhammadu Buhari.
The group also said Buhari could not stop Nigerians from holding talks about the way they would want to live in the country.
In a statement made available to journalists in Awka, the Anambra State capital, MASSOB leader, Uchenna Madu, faulted Buhari’s comment that Nigeria’s unity was not negotiable.
He said, “This is enthusiastic expression of an old man who still believes in his old way without realising that new trends are taking place.
“Buhari believes that with his kinsmen occupying all the positions in the military, he will easily crush Biafra and other opinion on restructuring of this country.
“Maybe he thinks that with his intimidation of Igbo governors, National Assembly members, religious/ opinion/ political leaders, he can crush Biafra.”
However, Madu said the group viewed Buhari’s constant negative comments on Biafra as a sign that the President was “jittery”.
He added, “As every revolutionary struggle has its own methodology, the current Biafra struggle for self-determination and restoration will continue to pose confusing methods to President Buhari.”
The group accused Buhari of running the worst administration in the country’s history and of pursuing an ethnic and religious agenda.
This, it said, had reawakened the consciousness and thought of future survival in the people in marginalised regions.
“No man born of a woman can crush Biafra because God, history and humanities are on our side,” it said.
