Better ooo. Adding more pain, stress and sorrow to the current situation is not the best option at the moment. We have too many problems at hand already. Wisdom pays in everything.

Failed governors.

"If you live outside South East, and you are a proponent of sit-at-home on Monday, while you work over there on Monday. May the Gods of our land punish you! That money you make on Monday will bring you calamity and pain."

If you hear that fuel is going to become scarce and you need your car for something important, like travel to your village, what do you do? Most reasonable people will fill their tanks and wait till fuel becomes available again.

If you hear that IKDC will take the light throughout the weekend, I think you will charge your phones, power banks, converters now, and even fuel your generators in case it is prolonged?

If you hear that Corona virus is spreading fast and that the cure is chloroquine tablets, you will want to buy for your whole village to become the saviour in that situation.

In all the scenarios above, the filling station, IKDC or the pharmacy will not lose money because you bought in bulk, they will even make more profit as volumes increase.

If you hear that a responsible world wide organisation like IPOB is planning a sit at home protest every Monday, you want to buy your foodstuff, clothing, movies and everything you need for a peaceful rest on Saturday and Sunday.

IPOB is smart, they have seen that the extra effort Igbos are putting to sustain Nigeria is not being rewarded, so it's better people rest more, hoping to reduce their overspending and over stress.

For every Monday you stay at home, you find more reasons to work smarter and sell better. You can sell more goods sitting at home, collecting your money via transfers and then loading the stock on Tuesday till Saturday.

For those selling on the roadside, you can use mondays to be preparation time at home, wash, clean your products and research on better strategies on Monday, then use Tuesday to Saturday to unload your moves into the market, it's a new era of trading, trade well and reap your profits.

The real losers are the jobless policemen and other armed security forces standing at every junction collecting bribes, you go stand tire!

The shops at the background looks closed.
They sell sports jerseys at the upstairs so if any of them are open, that place will be very colourful

Nice one.

Who born ESN?

Long before, Igbo leaders have been encouraging our successful sons
and daughter to bring their business home, Aku rue uno philosophy
(bring your wealth home) they called it.
It is a known fact that if you go to Agbara and Ota manufacturing
zone, after Indians and Lebanese, the next demography that has their
factories located in those manufacturing clusters are Igbo billionaires.
From Comet star and wire cable to Beloxxi biscuit and then J and B
wire and cable, you have hundreds of successful Igbo billionaires that
built their factories in these 2 manufacturing clusters.
On the other hand, many Igbo industrialists hearkened to this Aku ruo
uno plea and campaign by Igbo elites and leadership by taking their
investment home, if not for anything, they took their investment
home to create jobs for our teeming young people, stimulate the local
economy and contribute to the growth of Southeast GDP.
IPOB with its draconian sit at home is now making some of these
industrialists that brought their investment home regret that decision,
some of them are thinking twice why they did not join their peers in
citing their business in Agbara/Ota which as it were is more
conducive and safer to establish and run a business than the whole 5
eastern states combined.
It is very easy for IPOB who have not run or built any business in
their life to declare sit at home, just like they did when Buhari came to Owerri but what they did not know is that
businesses are haemorrhaging and bleeding because of this not so
well-thought policy.
Three days ago, in Lagos, I was with a big Industrialist that has a
factory in the east, he was complaining bitterly about what IPOB is
doing to his investment, he told me that IPOB wants to shut his
business down by this their Sit at home thing.
Already, his business lost 40 per cent profit last month August
because of the Monday sit at home, he showed me their audited
account to buttress what he was saying and now that IPOB has
increased the sit at home from once in a week to twice in a week, I
can only but feel for him and other industrialists that have their
factories in the east because they are bleeding and losing money.
Nigeria macroeconomy climate is already tough under Buhari, from the
scarcity of forex to inconsistency in Government economic policies and
then lack of direction by Buhari and his economic team, entrepreneurs
and industrialists are weathering all these, then you add the self-
inflicted damage that IPOB is doing to our people and their business.
I just finished speaking with another friend who is an Industrialist on
the phone and who has his factory in Anambra state, man is tired,
already planning to move his business from Anambra to Agbara in
Ogun state by next year. He told me he will be going to Ogun state
tomorrow to inspect the land that he wants to locate his factory so
that once he pays for the land, work can commence on the site
immediately.
At the end of the day, who is losing?
Buhari that care less about the fate of an average Igbo man, a
clueless president that has lost his home state Katsina to Fulani
bandits or the local economy in Igbo land that is bleeding because it
is losing billions of naira daily whenever Igbos living in the east are
forced to sit at home?
We are making ourselves poorer and if this madness of using violence
to compel enterprising Igbos to sit at home continues, expect to see
more capital flight of wealth and businesses out of Igbo land.
You don't need to hurt your people and their business before you
pass a message to Buhari but IPOB seems not to understand this.
I wish them all the best in their self-destructive mission.

At a point, they will be using police and army to force traders to come and trade under gunpoint

IPOB gave orders and it's being obeyed effortlessly. The governor should let the army go back and see the type of beating he will receive foe trying to force innocent people to trade.

Failed governors.

Those behind Ipob are nonentities and bastards. They don't have businesses in Igboland and they don't have economic activities in Igboland. You see them jumping about, but they don't have businesses.
How many Plaza does Kanu have in Igboland? Where is Uche Mefor's shopping line in Igboland?
The bastard called Uwazuruike doesn't have a grain of sand in Igboland. Yet, these fools are shouting Biafra.

While I think activities should return to normal, I believe Obiano is aware it goes beyond instruction and show off.


Awka has no major market, he should come down and open nkwo nnewi, main mkt onitsha, mgbuka obosi, ochanja, relief market, building material ogidi, new parts nkpor, ogbo ogwu/timber market/ ogbo rod bridgehead. Etc

I'm not happy, I wish this sit at home in SE can continue, we are ripping the benefits in SS

If we are to believe your claim, the governor went to each traders house and forced them to come out.
He also forced them to open shops and forced pedestrians to walk around.

You guys now go about attacking schools just like Boko haram.
Nothing we will not hear from Ipob members.

Ipob will tell you that they are not behind the sit at home as they have suspended the sit at home action but they are not happy with Obiano enforcing opening of shops for traders to trade.

Sitting at home every monday !!


dumbos


Na so Taliban started in Afghanistan.

On that thread, there are 3 sets of Ipob fools.

One set was saying Ipob isn't behind the attacks.
The second set was blaming the students for writing the exam on Monday.

The greatest fools of all were blaming the attacks on government agents.

Proudly igbo.. Born and brought up in 042...
Buh u see this ipob sit-at-home... Mbaaaa.. It's a very wrong move.
It's affecting our economy badly. Way too badly. I believe it should come to an end. Students can't even learn or write exams in peace again.
To be frank, in the past, the southeast was known for its peaceful nature, buh now.. Unknown gunmen everywhere, shooting upandan. Now we don't know who is who again.
Nnamdi kanu's ideology is wonderful, buh his execution and methodology is piss-poor.
To be frank, I don't think I want him released. He's way way too violent to lead

I'm telling u bro, this sit at home needs to continue so person go de get this patronage for asaba

Workers in the government and. private sector are not losing because they will get their full salary at the end of the month. Sit at home saves them their transport fare and give them more time to rest. That's why they easily support the sit at home.

Jobless men and women have nothing to lose. That's why they support the sit at home.

Those who are still serving their oga in the market shops have nothing to lose. They see it as a time to rest. That's why easily supporting the sit at home.

The only losers are those who own businesses and the government.
When you close your business because of sit at home just know that you're the only one who's losing. The rest are enjoying.
