The statement by Uchenna Madu, MASSOB's leader which was gathered by Enugu journalist, reiterated the offer as a means to avoid the emergence of Biafra, thus the request for referendum.
Uchendu's statement said, “The government of Britain is the sole architecture of the political, economic and religious problems of the people of Biafra in Nigeria even till today.
“It has not shown any remorse or apologise to the people of Biafra.
“Britain killed, maimed mesmerised and wounded our fathers, mothers and brethren through the Hausa Fulanis. MASSOB rejects their asylum.
“How can the chief persecutor of the people of Biafra suddenly turn to be our pacesetter? Britain and Nigeria can no longer deceive the world again concerning the plights of the people of Biafra.
“Our unified resilience, resolutions and unshakable spirit of no surrender will continue to hunt down this geographical expression called Nigeria.
“MASSOB demands referendum on Biafra not asylum."
Meanwhile, the Ohanaeze Youth Council (OYC) on Thursday, requested for the withdrawal of soldiers at the Ohaji Egbema and Oguta axis, Imo State, so as to avoid a repeat of the 1967-70 genocide against Ndigbo as youths as of today are being arrested in some part of Imo State.
