IPOB: No Going Back On May 30th Sit-at-home by 2Ebisco: 7:16am On May 26, 2018
The Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB has said it was not backing down on its proposed sit-at-home protest slated for 30th May 2019.

The group said the protest would start on the evening of 29th May, and that no human or vehicle was expected to be seen anywhere in the entire south East Nigeria and some other towns that had been marked out for a lockdown.

A release by the media and publicity secretary of the group, Emma Powerful said anyone or vehicle seen on the road would be marked as enemy, and would be treated so.

Part of the release read; “May 30th sit-at-home order is sacrosanct and shall be observed annually until the end of time. 30th of May 2018 will witness a total lock-down of South East, South South and selected states and cities across Nigeria.

“A two minute silence will be observed at 12 noon on the 30th to ponder and reflect upon the courage and patriotism of the brave men, and women that willingly sacrificed their lives to preserve what is left of our race today.

“We must remember, reflect and ponder over the pain and suffering of over 1 million innocent Biafran children deliberately starved to death by the Nigerian government as a result of an evil policy to wipe out an entire race of people from the face of the earth.”

He said not only will heroes and heroines of Biafra of the class of 1967 to 1970 be honored in the finest traditions of IPOB, but other victims of sectarian violence, Fulani terror herdsmen, Boko Haram and state sponsored extra judicial killings would also be remembered.

“We shall continue to remember our heroes the way every other single civilised society and world remembers their war heroes. It will take an extraordinarily high level of insensitivity, Not only will our heroes and heroines of the class of 67-70 be honored in the finest traditions of IPOB, other victims of sectarian violence, Fulani terror herdsmen, Boko Haram and state sponsored extra judicial killings will also be remembered.

“We owe it to our glorious dead to honour their bravery, heroics and sacrifice that ensured that South East and South South remain to this day an area untainted by Islamic dominance.

The only entity in West Africa to have such distinction. We cannot repay them enough for what they did for us. Therefore, we must honour them,” he concluded.

This is how they will be ordering sit-at-home every year until it becomes lame and people will start defying it and they (IPOB) get embarrassed.

Had they been wise, they wouldn't have ever talked of a sit-at-home after the huge success of the first order. But what's my business?

My business however, is that they should not dare ask members, and some gullible guys sympathetic to their views, not to participate in elections. No matter what anyone thinks, there are people that listen to these guys, and that would further affect the number of votes coming from the Southeast.

Please, Umu Igbo ibem, let's stop voter apathy in its entirety. It leads to northern Almajiris deciding those who hold sway at the centre.

If you want Biafra, let's participate fully in elections until maybe it comes.

What about IPOB becoming a political party? I swear it will win virtually every sit in southeast instead of conducting activities that seem anti-government.

The sit at home became necessary because whenever the Biafran activists want out to commemorate Biafran day, they got shot. They were shot in 2015 and again in 2016. So they said it is better to stay at home in 2017. That day in 2017, the Army and Police came out but they saw nobody to shoot. This year as well, we remember our war dead. I think what they are doing is in order.

As for election boycott, I support this as well. Nobody has ever gained anything from.voting in Nigeria

IPOB should never become a political party, that will be the end of them. They should remain a pressure group

Everything I've predicted about IPOB has always come to pass, I tell you now on nairaland that this year's sit at home will be a flop.
You heard it from Yyeske first.
You still remember what I told you about the Enugu LGA and Anambra guber elections last year, what happened finally?

I hate the sit at home protests because it affects the economy and the business of marginal igbos.

But when I remember the shooting of the unarmed which even the devil does not practice , I realised that the Nigerian security system is controlled by possessed fools

You don't need begging anybody, IPOB miscreants will still not listen. They enjoy the embarrassment they get once in a while I guess.
Remember how they promised blood flow about the meeting in Awka days back and what finally happened.

You made sense until you said you agree with their election boycott order.

Maybe IPOB should remain a pressure group, but not to boycott elections. We loose voice and the enemies of Ndigbo gain from it.

That the system didn't work before, does not mean it will never work.

Think bro, think.

There is nothing to think here. Elections have not helped the comm9n man.out there. The only people elections help are the set of thieves called politicians. Even if people vote for another hundred years in Nigeria, it won't help the common man.

Voting in Nigeria is the same as going to choose a driver for a car with a dead engine. You can choose any driver you want, but the car will go no where.

And after giving the quit notice, they realised their stupidity and started begging for unity all over the country. Some even went ahead to wear Igbo attire just to identify with the same people they gave quit notice. Stupidityy at its peak. For your info... Igbos don't give a damn.

Here are the pictures of unity begging by abbokis and afonjas included ..
