The outlawed Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) has announced that there would be a sit-at-home for Igbos across the country on 30 May.
The IPOB spokesperson, Emma Powerful, who disclosed this in a statement on Monday, said the civil action was intended to honour those who lost their lives while fighting for Biafra Independence since the struggle began in 1967.
The IPOB group spokesperson further asked people of the Southeast living in Lagos and other parts of Nigeria to join the sit-at-home order, warning all the residents of ‘Biafra territory’ not to endanger their lives or their businesses by disobeying the sit-at-home order as the directive is from the group leadership.
