The Chief of Army Staff, Lieutenant General Taoreed Lagbaja
has declared that the sit-at-home being observed in some states in the South
East is now over.
The sit-at-home order is being enforced by a faction of the
secessionist group, the Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB, across some
South-Eastern states.
Lagbaja stated this at the opening of the Combined Second
and Third Quarters COAS Conference on Tuesday in Abuja.
“We have equally heightened our efforts in containing
criminalities perpetrated in the South East Region by the Indigenous People of
Biafra and Eastern Security Network.
“Through Operation Udo Ka, our troops have, in collaboration
with other relevant stakeholders, put an end to the infamous sit-at-home order
that has almost crippled socio-economic activities in the region,” he said.
The Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) had two years ago
declared every Monday a sit-at-home day until its leader Nnamdi Kanu was
released from the custody of the Department of State Services.
