The sit -at-home order by the Indigenous People of Biafra(IPOB) has been suspended. Announcing the suspension in statement released by the media and publicity secretary of the group, Emma Powerful at the weekend, it noted that members have to strictly comply to the directive which he said was issued by their leader himself, Nnamdi Kanu.
However, IPOB has clarified that the suspension was lifted from Mondays it was originally slated to days Kanu would be facing his trials in court. He therefore enjoined the people to show equal solidarity they have earlier to 21,October when their leader would be appearing next in court.
“The suspension of the Sit-At-Home by the IPOB Head of Directorate was as a result of a direct order from the leader of this great movement Onyendu Mazi Nnamdi Kanu.
“In accordance with the directive from our leader, our Sit-At-Home will in the mean time be observed on the date of our leaders Court appearances.
“The lPOB leadership urge Biafrans worldwide to take note of the next court appearance of our leader which is the 21st of October 2021. If however we have any reason or directive from the IPOB highest command that require us to reactivate the suspended Weekly sit-at-home, the leadership will not hesitate to lift the suspension and continue with our civil action.
“There is no gain saying the fact that one of the major fundamental guiding principle of IPOB is Command and Control. This simply means that all command from the Supreme leader of the Indigenous people of Biafra (IPOB) will be obeyed and implemented to the latter by the Directorate of State of the Indigenous people of Biafra
“We know that our people embraced this civil action wholeheartedly and without any compulsion. The leadrrship sincerely appreciate the innate desire of Biafrans to sacrifice their time, resources and energy in ensuring that our leader Onyendu Mazi Nnamdi Kanu is released unconditionally from the illegal custody of the Nigerian State who criminally renditioned him from Kenya to Nigeria.
“The Nigeria Government should heed now to the voice of reason coming from within Nigeria and from outside the shores of Nigeria to unconditionally free our leader Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, and announce a date for Biafra referendum or plebiscite where our people will choose where they wish to belong before it is too late.” Powerful stated.
