Governor Obiano visits Onitsha Central Mosque razed during pro-Biafra protest
Governor of Anambra state, Wilie Obiano today visited the Mosque in Onitsha which was razed during pro-Biafra protests yesterday.

The governor also toured the Bridge Head and Nkpor to assess damages done.

The protest by pro-Biafra groups took another dimension on Wednesday leading to the burning down of Onitsha Central Mosque. Four of Dangote’s supply trucks were not spared and have also been burnt.

The protest equally claimed some lives in Onitsha Anambra State.

It was learnt that trouble started when members of the Movement for the Actualization of Sovereign State of Biafra, MASSOB and the Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB, clashed with security agents.

While it was alleged that some of the protesters were armed against the security operatives, MASSOB leaders claims the violent youths were sponsored by the Federal Government.
