MASSOB faults Army over opposition to Biafra memorial

MASSOB (Movement for the Actualisation of the Sovereign State of Biafra) has accused the Nigerian Army of obstructing efforts to erect a memorial honoring the Biafran war (1967‑1970). The group says the military’s opposition reflects lingering hostility toward Biafran remembrance and the broader push for self‑determination, while the army claims the site could inflame ethnic tensions and destabilize the region.
