It is also hinted that the forthcoming Biafra remembrance day was part of the topics on the table.
While the Nnamdi Kanu-led IPOB has declared May 30 as sit-at-home for all Igbo people, mostly those doing business in the Southeastern part of Nigeria, the MASSOB has taken May 22-30 to mark the actualization of Biafra.
The two groups are front liners in the pursuit of the actualization of sovereign state called Biafra.
MASSOB, has stated that 20 countries will be sending their observers to monitor the 17th anniversary celebration of the group billed to hold May 22nd to 30th.
