The Movement for the Actualisation of the Sovereign State of Biafra (MASSOB) has warned the federal government against re-arresting pro-secessionist, Nnamdi Kanu.

This is because it could lead to a crisis in the country.

Kanu, leader of Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) was arrested and detained by the federal government for alleged treason in 2015.

He was granted bail earlier this year with stringent bail conditions.

The court ordered that he should not be seen in a crowd of more than 10 persons and he must not address press conference or interviews.

But some northern youths and groups have called for his arrest for flouting the order.

Responding, MASSOB, in a statement by its factional leader, Uchenna Madu, warned that if Kanu is re-arrested, the country may not recover from the crisis such an action will generate.

“MASSOB warns that any attempts or plan to re arrest Mazi Nnamdi Kanu will be thoroughly and massively resisted. We can never tolerate it. It is an insult and embarrassment to our inalienable Rights. We shall collapse Nigeria if he is arrested.

“Now that we know that our consistency and exposure of the hidden truths is dangerously frustrating, disorganising and killing their age long agendas against the people of Biafra, we shall never relent or surrender,” Madu stated.
