    MASSOB urges Igbos to leave North over Boko Haram Killings *Christians Killing Must Stop –Pope Benedict



    As attacks on Christians by violent Boko Haram Sect  continue almost unhindered in the north, the leader of the movement for the actualisation of sovereign state of Biafra (MASSOB), Chief Ralph Uwazuruike has called on Igbos to leave the troubled zones in northern Nigeria. Nwazurike lamented attacks and killings of innocent worshippers at churches adding that when such bloody attacks happen Ndigbos are worst hit.
    He also blasted the security agencies for failing to end the killings and growing insecurity in northern part of the country. Also speaking on the violence in Nigeria,  Pope Benedict XVI called for an end to the killings of Christians even as he warned against reprisal attacks from both sides. “I appeal to those responsible for the violence to immediately stop the spilling of the blood of many  innocent people.” the pope stated.
    Meanwhile, death toll has hit about 80 in Sunday’s  multiple attacks on three churches in Kaduna, North central Nigeria  and a gun battle between Boko Haram and security agencies in Damaturu, Yobe state, North-east Nigeria.
