The Indigenous People of Biafra has declared sit-at-home on Tuesday, January 18, 2022, in the South-East.
The group said it gave the order following Nnamdi Kanu’s court proceedings coming up on January 18, 19 and 20, 2022 at the Umuahia High Court.
According to the group’s Media and Publicity Secretary, Emma Powerful, on Saturday the clarification became necessary because the group realised that some “unscrupulous traitors” within its ranks, are trying to create confusion about these days and dishing false information and propaganda trying to create confusion in the South-East.
He pointed out that anybody issuing an order for sit-at-home on January 19 and 20 was not a member of IPOB, adding that such persons were working against the entire struggle for independence and should be disregarded.
The statement also tagged anyone found enforcing the non-existent Monday sit-at-home on January 17 as a criminal, saying that IPOB leadership had already cancelled it and it must be obeyed.
The group further maintained that IPOB remains under one central command and control without any parallel or factional leadership.
