Monday sit-at-home remains cancelled in Biafran land – IPOB

By Phil Okose, Onitsha

Indigenous People of Biafra, (IPOB), Tuesday, insisted that the Monday sit-at-home remained cancelled in Biafran land even as it expressed dismay that  some areas, especially rural areas, still observe Monday sit-at-home due to threats from criminal enforcers linking themselves to be IPOB members.

Insisting through its spokesman, Emma Powerful, that the order remains cancelled, IPOB stated that, “We have said it numerous times that the Monday sit-at-home is infamous and can not be allowed to continue.

“The now cancelled Monday sit-at-home order was an IPOB leadership order that was cancelled by the leadership in collaboration with our leader after considering some adverse effects of it on our people and how our enemies can possibly use it.

“Just as predicted by IPOB leadership, Nigeria security agents, infiltrators, and government agents hijacked it and used it to torment our people and to rubbish IPOB’s name in Biafra Land and in other countries. Mondays in Biafra Land have become a day for the agent provocateurs and the Nigeria security agencies to kill and destroy our land just because they want to blackmail IPOB.

” IPOB leadership is always ahead of our enemies and canceled this tool before our enemies could start using it. We are telling all and sundry that sit-at-home has been cancelleed”, IPOB affirmed.

According to the spokesman, Kanu  ordered from DSS custody that Monday sit-at-home should cease in every part of Biafra land, warning that IPOB should not be held  responsible for any outcome arising from this non-existent sit-at-home, and shall no longer talk about it.

He said that Ndigbo were not cowards and, therefore, should normalize their Mondays like before, warning that anyone seen enforcing Monday sit-at-home should be treated as a criminal and enemy of Biafra.
