On the recent allegation by the Army Chief of Staff, Lieutenant General Tukur Buratai, in Owerri that members of the group, who were massacred in Anambra State, were heavily armed, the MASSOB spokesperson said, “The army lied, they know we have remained non-violent since our struggle.
“They attacked us at Okwe in Onuimo Local Government Area of Imo State in 2000 and killed 800 of our members at Oyi Local Government in Anambra state; they dumped the corpse of our members in a shallow river. We never attacked them, they know those who carry arms, we are non violent people despite the provocation.”
