Terrorist/Bomb Threat from the Uche Okwukwu/"Obinna Okoro" Group
All:
A breakaway faction of MASSOB that goes by the names CRIDO, EPC, etc. has threatened to send a letter bomb to BNW because BNW granted an interview to MASSOB leader, Chief Ralph Uwazuruike, on September 8, 2002. The letter signed by the group's secretary, "Mr. CHUKWUKERE VICTOR" threatens,
quote:if the faceless BNW staff fall’s to balance her perverse interview her case shall be that of Delegiwa.
As we are all aware, Dele Giwa was murdered in 1986 in a letter bomb blast. The group that sent the threat to BiafraNigeriaWorld is led by Mr. Uche Okwukwu and another gentleman, “Obinna Okoro,” a.k.a. "NwaMazi." Both Uche Okwukwu and “Obinna Okoro” have been given the opportunity to clarify the threat issued by their group’s secretary. They have refused to do so.
BNW takes this terrorist threat seriously, and all necessary steps will be taken to bring this threat to the attention of law enforcement agencies in the US and around the world. Additional information will be available at appropriate sections of this site.

How stupid can those guys be? If they have a letter bomb to send why don't they send it to their enemies who committed genocide on them? Those two fellows have dug their own grave.

One has been hard-pressed to understand why there should be a pledge of non-violence in the new Biafra struggle. Yet, many have come to recite non-violence as if it were an article of faith. But, one thing must be made clear. Any group that pledges itself to non-violence in Nigeria, i.e., in the North and West, must remain equally non-violent in Biafra (in the East). We are not going to tolerate, as an imperative in this struggle, the proposition that any group could be non-violent in Nigeria but be a terrorist in Biafra. Those who reckon that they have a monopoly on violence should think long and hard before they fire the first shot.

That was such a crass boast to commit murder. It should not be a problem at all to see that those men are locked up should they ever set foot on US soil. A threat to send a letter bomb to the US is the surest way to place oneself under George Bush's new justice regime.

I am appauled by this threat and the use of it. I certainly will not endorse mayhem to any body in an effort to achieve Biafra. While I am for Biafra, I do not particualarly endorse any form of terrorist acts.
These guys appear to be smart based on the way they crafted the letter but they should channel thier grieviances to a more civilized way. I understand their anger but threat by bodily harm or victimization of another or group is not prudent in this Century. Aikada can testify to that. They are paying the ultimate prize.
Once you become a terrorist group, the label is attached and stigma not so easy to overcome, your adventure is paralysed and your group black listed. You become a lame duck. You become an assert for political prosecution even when your right. ADVISE: Modify yourself for mass appeal for there are other ways to bargain for equal time, certainly not by threat or the use of it.
Hail Biafra

I don't think that this guys knows the gravity of what they are doing,. I hope they understand that this is not Biafranigeria where they can make careless threats. This a law and order society, they should understand that there are conseguencies to every actions. As much as I don't want us to be distracted from Biafra cause, this group are making it impssible to reason with them.
BNW have made every effort to give this group opportunity to air their views regarding what they think about Uwazuruike. Everybody in this forum probably know how vocal I have been about Uwazuruikes shannigan, For this group to be threatening people because they could get their way is absurd. This a childish tantrum that have no place in Biafra movement.

Now, this is what you call nasty and senseless terrorist threat which should be taken seriously by the person(s) targeted. I am not going to be surprise to see Wind, Chiboy, Fat Boy, Odili, Chi m and their cohorts defend these would-be terrorists who should be arrested and locked-up indefinitely before they cause more havoc.
These Delta area hoodlums should know they've been on U.S. terrorist list.

It's all very clear now, those pro Biafran groups still dealing with the Okwukwu/Okoro faction do so at their own risk. Anyone who sets out on a journey with his brother only to threaten him with such harm so early in the journey cannot expect to retain his trust. Okwukwu and Co. should come out with their true mission, it cannot be Biafra actualization if they are threatening others with letter bombs.
In any case they should take their letter bomb to Onitsha, there is a serious battle going on there that requires their attention. MASSOB Office in Onitsha attackedPosts: 1532 | From: USA | Registered: Mar 2001

What is the root cause of Okwkwu's anger? Someone is not telling the truth. You guys ain't seen nothing yet. Soon you will be smoking one another over a reckless harlot.

Sometime ago, we saw that Adanma Madu, Ndubisi Obiorah, and Rudolf Okonkwo, issued a terrorist threat against people in this forum. It is now time for Igbo people and Biafrans to make it clear that these types of threats by groups and individuals is completely unacceptable.

This is an unwarranted and senceless terrorist threat which can not be tolerated in the Biafran fold, even holding a contrary view to that of Chief Uwazilike on the Biafran actulisation will not be an excuse for any irresponsible group of people to issue a terrorist threat to any person or group of persons anywhere in the name of Biafra, we are peacefull and reactionary and can never be a threat to anybody. but wait, these guys most be paid by somebody as the Nigerian goverment became increasenly upset by the broad acceptance of the new Biafran project.

May be this letter bomb stage is the 5th stage of the 25 stages for Biafra actualization. You will blow yourselves up and after that, you will have Biafra.

Fellows, While we may say whatever we want about this FACELESS fellows, I think Biafrans and Igbos in particular will do well to start IDENTIFING threats (and those who pose a threat to our collective interests) than being reactive whenever these threats or those against our interest carry out their plans. Its sad, I mean very sad to see some Igbos in order to be seen as "nice" guys always use "thinking different" to indirectly embolden these miscreats.
Be it in the bigger Nigerian politics or in the Biafran movement or any pro-Igbo organization, I've said it before and will reinterate it again; for Igbos to make any impact and progress, we must borrow a leave from the yorubas and start IMMEDIATELY to IDENTIFY our enemies (those against our general interests) from WITHIN and treat them as we would those from without.
The earlier people like Okwukwu, Nzeribe, Maduekwe, etc knows the fate that awaits them, they will think a million times before writing such USELESS threat letters or making/taking actions that threaten the wellbeing of the entire Igbo people.
MY PEOPLE, LETS BE PROACTIVE AND NOT REACTIVE.

Is'nt this pathetic? The major complaint of this group is that they were not granted a counterinterview to voice their own side of their story.
One may wonder that if these idiots were capable of issuing the threat through a letter, why werent they equally able to communicate their so-called side of the story through the same method before resorting to threats?
quote:The letter signed by the group's secretary, Mr. CHUKWUKERE VICTOR threatens,"if the faceless BNW staff fall’s to balance her perverse interview her case shall be that of Delegiwa"
Having issued these threats, what kind of validity, credibility, trust, integrity, can this splinter group now claim? what kind of sympathy can they now expect vis-a-vis their so-called side of the story. These jokers have thus threatened the very same audience from whom they expect sympathy.
Are these the Blockheads who claim to speak for Igbo? for me and you???
Brothers and sisters, our fate lies in our hands. I have stated this before, shall we suffer these fools gladly? and for how long?
What can we do? -We can resoundingly reject these self seeking, self appointed schemers, who if ignored will soon constitute themselves a nuisance for sale to the next Awusa mallam at our expense (if they have'nt already done so). -We can relegate these crooks to the trash can portion of Igbo history by exposing and denouncing their nefarious reasons for existence, which is definitely not, and will never have anything to do with Igbo interest.
From our villages and towns let us begin to desist from and discourage the glorification of these self serving charlattans, who along with 419ers, political prostitutes, armed robbers and other ne'er-do-wells in Igboland (to our greatest detriment) seem to be glorified as soon as they come into possession of financial means, no matter how unscrupulously obtained.
If we are under God's curse and displeasure, it is time to purge ourselves thoroughly before we can even aspire to move on.
Let the death of Barnabas Igwe and his wife at the hands of fellow Igbo after similar threats as above, not be in vain!!!

This is exactly why we should not keep quiet and let such a threat go away without resolve.
The threat made by Okwkwu-led faction of MASSOB to a Biafranigeriaworld staff over an interview with Ralph Uwazuruike provides a taste of sabotage clearly instituted by Olusegun Obasanjo`s administration as an arsenal to silence MASSOB and members of Biafranigeriaworld. That tactics will never work and they should be made to pay for it.
But if Okwukwu was actually right-thinking, using Dele Giwa`s letter-bombing incident as a promise in these critical days of terrorism would have made him think twice before using the non-existent "rubber stamps."
I would suggest the management and owner(s) of Biafranigeriaworld to call in the attention of FBI, Interpol, security details in Biafranigeria, lodge a complaint and have the subjects behind the threat interrogated and if necessary arrested until it is clear they pose no threat to anyone.
And, if Obasanjo is behind this plot, he should be made to pay dearly.
Biafra does NOT send sabo! Uche Okwukwu and "Obinna Okoro" are sabo. They have been planted to destroy the Biafra movement. Any pro-Igbo or pro-Biafra group found supporting those "two men" and their group will perish. Ekwe Nche and BF should take note.

Show us the Pictures of "Ray Batubo" and "Obinna Okoro"
All:
There now seems to be a cottage industry of small men and women who think they can destroy the Biafra movement or BiafraNigeriaWorld. At different times the gangs of small men and women have taken the forms of half-baked law-students-for-life with bachelor degrees in law, fraudulent pastors, crooked Hausa-Fulani Shariarists, tribalist and hate-mongering professors, confused “journalists,” and pretended Biafra activists. But, as we have witnessed, the faster they come, the harder they fall.
Let there be no doubt; I am aware that Uche Okwukwu and “Obinna Okoro” were given ample opportunity to address the issue of the terrorist threat issued by their organization. Moreover, other organizations identified with the Biafra movement are witnesses to the transactions.
The Uche Okwukwu/”Obinna Okoro” group copied BF and Ekwe Nche on the original terrorist blackmail letter sent to BiafraNigeriaWorld. When BiafraNigeriaWorld wrote to the Uche Okwukwu/“Obinna Okoro” group seeking clarification, that letter was also copied to Ekwe Nche and BF. Finally, the response from the Okwukwu/”Okoro” group was copied to Ekwe Nche and BF. Therefore, neither Ekwe Nche nor BF should claim to be reading about these events for the very first time, or that the culprits were not given the opportunity to retract the threat.
It should be a matter of concern that no one knew or heard of "Obinna Okoro" or "Ray Batubo" until the MASSOB leadership crisis broke a few months ago, and those names emerged to be used to pursue Okwukwu’s opponents. Now that the group has resorted to terrorism against Biafrans, it is our duty to bring them to the attention of the FBI and other law enforcement agencies.

I remember at about this time last year when all this nonesense started. One of the key players said that MASSOB was not formed on the internet. Some sanctimonious Igbo liked the fine prose of "nwa mazi" and his many pseudos. They don't know what they are doing. They will know when they are arrested at MMA from the information the moles have forwarded to their masters.
I have been to Biafranigeria twice this year and those of you who speak to me will recall I stated categorically that the PH gang doesn't exist and definitely NOT for Biafra. I still stand by that statement. Isn't it interesting that after the guy called okwukwu was given Ngbati press for his endorsement of OPC, OPC went to publicly endorse Obasanjo. Those boys are working for baba Iyabo, period.
Having said all that, I want to say it here and now that Okwukwu and his misguided army have met their waterloo at BNW. He can copy my post to baba Iyabo. BNW is supposed to be the last place left for Okwukwu to infiltrate and in his desperation he is threatening to send a parcel bomb.
It is NOT only the FBI that will be on his case. The MI5 and the true human rights organisations in the UK will hear about this venomous rodent.

I hope I'm not one of the "fraudulent pastors" you have in mind.
For the threat by Uche Okwukwu, if we wait for it to materialize, it will be waiting for too long and the outcome may be costly. Action must be taken to disrupt his plans before they emerge.

I have now become extremely suspicious of the quality of the legal education that people receive in BiafraNigeria. What kinds of lawyers resort to cheap blackmail, or go around threatening people with death and bodily harm? It happened here early this year when Amanda and her "lawyers" issued dangerous threats against some members of this forum. I had never been more disappointed with Nigeria-educated lawyers than I was with some of the people in her group back then.
Now we have this duo in Port Harcourt. From last year's disputes over attorney fees, we now know that an untold amount of legal bills awaits those Igbo/Biafrans who sign on to the Okwukwu/"Okoro" charge-and-bail ruse. If a supposed member of MASSOB is charging money to defend detained MASSOB activists, that raises the question: might the lawyer be actively orchestrating those arrests for his own benefit?

For one reason, I gave it a thought not to dabble into this gimmick called threat by Uche Okwkwu and "Obinna Okoro" which sounded more like anger from a frustrated bunch.
Even though such a threat is nothing new to Biafranigeriaworld staff and forumites, with many threats in the past, this very one that promised to deal with the interviewer the way Dele Giwa was dealt with should not be looked like a child's play. It must be taken seriously and immediate action must follow.
We overlooked the threats by Mobalaji Aluko, Amanda Wekson and her cohorts, Gamji and Ashilac, Big Steve and his dubious congregation and other empty threats from people like Rudolf Okonkwo and Ndubisi Obiorah.
That of Okwukwu and his frustrated bunch should be handled in the appropriate manner as soon as possible.

Okwukwu and Obinna should be ready to face the consequences for their actions. I wonder how they can be fighting for Biafrans while at the same fighting other Biafran organizations. The last thing we want in Biafra are terrorists and Okwukwu and Obinna should be dealt with before it is too late. they need to take thier behinds to teh Arab world where terrorism is a cultural thing, not Biafra or Africa. Anyway, I hope the letter bomb explodes on them. Yeye crooks.
