Residents in Imo State on Monday again shun the relaxation order by the Indigenous People of Biafra(IPOB) on the sit-at-home directive it early ordered in solidarity of their leader, Nnamdi Kanu who is standing trial in court.

Despite the suspension of the order , the residents remained indoors as economic activities again was crippled.

The usual heavy traffic jam and commercial activities noticeable in Owerri and other urban centres in the State was totally a different story as only few vehicles were seen plying the roads.
