10,000 MOBIN members Dump UPP

www.odogwublog.com reports that over ten thousand (10,000) members of the Movement of Biafrans in Nigeria (MOBIN), under the authority of Customary Government of Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), has dumped the United Progressives Party (UPP) as their adopted political party following injustice and bizarre manner it did is primary.

MOBIN said that an agreement it entered with the national leadership of United Progressives Party (UPP) to form partnership for building the party as a Biafran brand was betrayed.

  

MOBIN in a statement signed by Rita Eberechukwu Anigbogu , Director General MOBIN said UPP betrayed all norms of democratic practice and civilized conducts obtainable in all democracies during its primary.

MOBIN said further that it regrets to make public the fragrant violations and bizarre abuses perpetrated by the leadership of the UPP at National level, as led by Chief Chekwas Okorie:

The statement said in part: ‘’The UPP national leadership instead of ratifying the Delegates list for conducting the Anambra State governorship primaries, they (the national leadership) sat in Abuja national secretariat and mutilated the list by adding and removing names, re-designating several elected officials with the single aim of deciding for their nefarious purpose, who should be the delegates for the Anambra primaries against the express provisions of the UPP constitution and the Electoral Act.

The statement concluded: ‘’As it stands, MOBIN will never be part of a system that upholds injustice, criminality and impunity, and can never support any candidate that emerges from this skewed process even if he is a pro-Biafran. MOBIN is totally committed to the integrity and had wanted to use the Anambra governorship election as a test case and for the gauging of the preparedness of Biafrans for the Biafra model of change. For the members of MOBIN therefore, the integrity of the process is far greater than its outcome.
