Leader of the Indigenous people of Biafra, IPOB, Nnamdi kanu has said that he doesn’t believe in sit- at- home as it’s crippling the Southeast Economy.
Kanu who spoke through his lead counsel, Mike Ozekhome (SAN), said he does not believe in the sit-at-home.
He cited the effect of the sit-at-home exercise on the social, economic, cultural, and political life of the people, lamenting that it has put the Igbo under psychological, physical and mental torture.
“I am now re-echoing again and again what Nnamdi Kanu told me, ”He does not believe in that sit-at-home on Mondays,” which cripples the social, economic, cultural, and political life of the people, putting them under psychological physical, and mental torture,” he said.
In a related development, the Enugu State Government, yesterday, announced that all the shops and businesses sealed for not opening on Monday would remain closed for one week.
At least 106 shops and two banks were closed for allegedly adhering to the sit-at-home order initiated by the Finland-based Simon Ekpa, the factional leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB.
The shops and banks were closed by the Enugu Capital Territory Development Authority, ECTDA.
