The Enugu State chapter of the Igbo apex socio-cultural organisation, Ohanaeze Ndigbo Worldwide, on Sunday, declared its end of a sit-at-home protest in the South-East in general and the Enugu State in particular.

The state chapter of Igbo socio-cultural group said it was fully backing the Enugu State Government in its efforts to end the sit-at-home in the state, insisting that the protest had outlived its usefulness.

The PUNCH reports that a factional leadership of the Indigenous People of Biafra, led by a Finland-based pro-Biafra agitator, Simon Ekpa, who styled himself as the Biafran Prime Minister of Biafra Republic Government in Exile, has been enforcing Monday sit-at-home, which the main IPOB group led by Chika Edoziem had since cancelled.

The factional group had insisted on the sit-at-home as a way of calling for the release of their leader, Nnamdi Kanu, who is being detained by the Department of State Services since June 2021.

But Ohanaeze in a statement on Sunday signed by its Enugu President, Professor Fred Eze, applauded the courage of the state governor, Peter Mbah, in taking the bold step to put an end to “the scourge of sit-at-home in Enugu State”.

Ohanaeze recalled that before the cancellation by the government, Enugu State was overwhelmed by a climate of fear such that people could not go about their normal business with confidence.

“In Enugu State, every Monday became an unofficial holiday as businesses and other social activities usually came to a halt.

“Thus, the continued observance of the sit-at-home order had a significant negative impact on the economy of Enugu State. Businesses were rapidly closing down while others were relocating away from the state leading to the loss of foreign direct investment and massive capital flight.

“Thus, the action by the Enugu State Government could not have come at a better time. That Governor Peter Mbah also called for the release of Mazi Nnamdi Kanu; and has triggered steps to get the Federal Government to release Kanu are indicative that the governor understands the core issues at stake

“The sit-at-home order is self-immolating and has disrupted all productive assets and resources in the state since its introduction and enforcement.

“Ohanaeze Enugu State chapter expresses happiness that the leader of IPOB, Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, has himself categorically ordered the cessation of any form of sit-at-home in whatever guise in the South-East Nigeria,” he said.

The group therefore applauded the “life-saving order by Mazi Nnamdi Kanu because the sit-at-home is counterproductive as it does incalculable harm to the people IPOB is fighting for.”

Ohanaeze appealed to parents, guardians, youths, and the general public to join hands with Mbah and his administration in ensuring that sit-at-home was put to a permanent end in the state.

Good news from Ohanaeze Ndigbo say no to sit-@-home

That Ekpa guy is clearly ma.d! Then his followers are definitely crazier.
2weeks sit at home? and someone with brain still supports him? I never believed an Igbo man would be so easily brainwashed to support this kind of thing.

Every town should fortify its local vigilante.
Every sensible Igbo should UNFOLLOW Simon Ekpa in ALL his social media profiles.

Nice moves

Igbos are fools Why cant them join hand and bring out their brother from so called DSS
i have noting to say...
I REST MY CASE IN PEACE

We would not take this.

The Sit-At-Home must be extended to 2Months.
The FG must suffer while Ekpa people are eating their Ofensala and the Hero that the former Governor of Anambra invested in.

#Una go learn by Force and stop victim mentality.

SIMON EKPA THE FINNISHER

The sit at home should be extended to 3 months


I wan see something

This showdown will be very interesting. Ekpa vs kanu ....... UGM vs ibos. RAMBOO (biafra wars) 😂🤣😂

Igbos always start what they can't finish, from Ojukwu exile to Namdi Kanu extradition.

Who will hand over power to people that can't put their home in order.

Politics is different from buying and selling.

Ohaneze Ndigbo backs Enugu Governor! How are they backing him?

Mazi Simon Ekpa Al-Ebonyiwi has declared that the sit at home continues! He said the Letter from NMK is fake!

It's easy to brainwash ibos because they are the most delusional tribe in the world.
