In keeping with our solidarity with Kanu, the entire Biafra land will be on lockdown only on January 18 for obvious reasons.<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">\u201cBiafrans should understand that January 19 is the judgment day in our leader\u2019s suit against the Federal Government, which is pending before an Umuahia High Court. So, there will be no sit-at-home that day.<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">\u201cAgain, we don\u2019t want to compound the pains of our people, hence, we will limit the sit-at-home to only January 18. Biafrans and residents of the South East should go about their businesses without molestation on January 19 and 20, 2022. Anybody found enforcing sit-at-home on 17th, 19th and 20th is criminal and should be treated as such, because IPOB leadership has given an order, which was duly signed,\u201d the statement reads.<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">\n<div dir=\"auto\">The above statement therefore clears the earlier confusing messages posted on social media and side \/ group discussions whereby residents in the\u00a0 states were allegedly brain washed<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">\u00a0that the order would be observed from Monday, January 17 through Thursday, January 20.<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">That had led to unusual human traffic in markets and shops as residents\u00a0 struggled to buy items that would sustain them for the period.<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">Source: Guardian<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>IPOB DECLARES SIT-AT-HOME TO BACK Nnamdi Kanu AS COURT RESUMES TRIAL &#8230; Says,\u00a0 Sit-at -home, tomorrow only The Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) has declared sit-at-home on January 18, 2022 to solidarise with its leader Nnamdi Kanu as the Umuahia High Court hears Kanu\u2019s fundamental human rights enforcement suit against the Federal Government.
