The Anambra State Governor, Willie Obiano wisited the Onitsha Mosque which was not burnt down by pro-Biafra protesters was claimed happened some days ago when a protest was staged in the commercial ciy of the state in support of Biafra and the detained Radio Biafra director, Nnamdi Kanu.
The two organisations that staged the mega pro-Biafra protests which shut down the Niger Bridge for the most part of Wednesday, December 3, 2015, the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) and the Movement for the Actualisation of the Republic of Biafra (MASSOB) have denied burning down any mosque.
A Facebook user, John Okiyi Kalu, debunked reports that the Onitsha Mosque was burn by sharing photos he took after the riot.
The surrounding shops were vandalised but the mosque, which is the uncompleted building with a tree by its side is untouched. The tree beside the mosque does not show any sign of fire getting close to it at any time.
