Nnamdi Kanu, leader of the
Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB, has ordered a total shut down of the
Southeast, Abuja, Lagos State and the North on May 30.
Kanu ordered the sit-at-home to
celebrate those killed during the Biafra civil war.
Speaking through the spokesman of
IPOB, Emma Powerful, Kanu urged Christians in the North to also sit-at-home.
A statement by Powerful reads:
“We the global family of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) ably led by our
prophet and liberator of our time, Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, wish to announce to the
public and Biafrans both home and abroad, that the annual anniversary of our
fallen heroes and heroines will be on Sunday, 30th of May 2021.
“As usuall, there will be total
lock down of the entire Biafra land on that day. There will be sit-at- home
across Biafraland, Lagos, Abuja as well as northern towns with reasonable
Biafran population.
“The sit-at-home order is also to
be observed in all the markets within and outside Biafra land where our people
do their businesses. It shall also be observed by Diasporan Biafrans in the
over 100 countries with the IPOB family is present.
“We equally request our fellow
comrades in Yoruba, Middle Belt and other Christians living in the far North to
solidarise with us in the event as we honour all those who have paid the
supreme price in our struggle for total freedom.”
