Chief Frank Kokori, a human rights activist and former labour union leader, has said the south-south is not part of the struggle for the creation of a Biafra Republic.
He condemned the Movement for the Actualisation of the Sovereign State of Biafra for saying the south-south was a part of Biafra, The Punch reports.
Kokori was reacting to  that anybody who says that Akwa Ibom, Rivers, Bayelsa and Cross River states were not part of Biafra was deceiving himself.
MASSOB said Biafra comprises all the states of the former eastern region, including the Anioma community in Delta state.
Kokori, who is an indigene of Delta state wondered how the south-south region could be part of the struggle for Biafra when most Igbo people had refused to abandon their businesses outside the south-east to join the Biafran agitation at home.
He said: “So, we in Delta State have never been part of Biafra. Anything that is Biafran today is purely in the South-East which does not include Rivers, Bayelsa , Cross River and Akwa Ibom.

“These states are not part of this new Biafran joke. To me, it is a joke. The Biafra of Chukwuemeka Odumegwu-Ojukwu was a serious issue. What people like Ralph Uwazuruike of MASSOB and Nnamdi Kanu of IPOB are doing is trivialising the serious struggle of Ojukwu.
“They are not even serious; they don’t know what they want. What they want is not viable and so they are just trivialising. Is Biafra today possible with five landlocked South-East states?”
According to him, MASSOB and other pro-Biafran agitators were jokers trying to exploit the oil-rich Niger Delta and to deceive Nigerians.
He noted that the creation of a Biafra Republic could spell doom for the south-east as the geopolitical zone is landlocked and not strategic for international commerce.
The human rights activists therefore, called on Igbo leaders to caution the pro-Biafran agitators who had no idea of the implication of their demand.
He also asked the federal government to release Nnamdi Kanu, the director of Radio Biafra, who has been in the custody of the Department of State Services, for the sake of peace with a stern warning not to toy with treason again.
