IPOB said the sit-at-home would be a show of support for Kanu, who is currently in the custody of the Department of State Services (DSS).

In a statement issued on Sunday by Emma Powerful, IPOB spokesperson, the group also asked Igbo businessmen and women outside the south-east to shut down their businesses in support of Kanu.

“Following our earlier declaration of one month lockdown of Biafra land should the Nigeria Government fail to bring our Leader Mazi Nnamdi Kanu to the court on October 21,” the statement reads.


“We, the global family of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), request our brothers and sisters in Oduduwa Republic and Middle Belt including Igbo and Biafra businessmen and women, traders, who is doing business outside Biafra land to shut down his or her business for us to demonstrate our resolve for the emergence of our new nation Biafra and support for our leader Mazi Nnamdi KANU and others who are facing similar fate with us to join us in sympathy protest.

“All lovers of Biafra including Christian communities in the north and other parts of Nigeria, who receive unnecessary humiliation, intimidation and killings from Fulani terrorists, bandits and murderous herdsmen should understand that time has come for all victims of Fulani impunity and atrocities to unite together for resistance.

“We advise all oppressed people in Nigeria to be prepared for the one month sit-at-home if the federal government of Nigeria and the Department of State Services, DSS fail to produce Nnamdi Kanu in court on the next court adjourned date.

Lol, the ibo in my estate that sells groceries usually listens to Nnamdi kanu podcasts and is a die hard supporter....but what's funny is that this dude has never ever closed his shop for any sit at home, one would think people like him in lagos would follow in the footsteps of their eastern kin. imagine obi cubana closing his club as sit at home for this rettarded shitshow by ipob? Or coscharis closing down his dealership? Lmao.

Sit at homes are only successful in the east because the population is largely already unemployed and jobless cus of few opportunities in the region thanks to misplaced priorities of it's governors, and a large majority of the meat heads violently pushing for biafra and dying for it are largely dirt poor rettards. The ones in Lagos are busy doing business (legal and illegal) and spending their friday nights at Cubana or quilox. It's the broke one's that usually open threads on nairaland talking about how Rivers State is part of biafruad meanwhile their mums are living as tenants. Fvckers

How does sitting at home translate to fighting a common enemy? Or am I missing something?

I know that you have been bitten by a zombie but I will still answer you for the sake of the future!

Is the injustice melted out to one ethnic group

Okay, can you protest in Nigeria peacefully now

If truly people were killed all over Nigeria as we all know, then this is a fight for all!

We all spent 7 months at home for covid, surely we can spend a month for the sake of our future and that of our generations to come!

harjay1986:

You can't protest either! So how do you intend to carry out your strategies
