IPOB Sit-at-home: We Are Complying Out Of Fear, Say Enugu Residents by Biodun556(op): 4:49pm On Jan 31, 2022

Residents of Enugu in Enugu State have disclosed that they have been complying with the sit-at-home order being imposed by the proscribed Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) out of fear of the “unknown gunmen”.

IPOB had periodically declared the illegal sit-at-home order in the South-East to protest the continued incarceration of its leader, Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, who is currently in detention and standing trial in Abuja.

However, the leadership of IPOB cancelled the order following insistence of stakeholders that it was crippling the economy of the South-East and hijack by criminals.

Recall that IPOB has also severally announced the cancellation of the Monday sit-at-home order, but LEADERSHIP investigations revealed that residents of Enugu have continued to obey the order out of fear.

Attempts made by traders and schools to disobey the order in the recent past met brickwalls as there were sporadic shootings and killings by unknown gunmen trying to enforce the order.

Some of the residents told our correspondent in an interview that they were obeying the ‘order’ out of fear and not that they subscribe to IPOB or Nnamdi Kanu’s values.

“My brother, the truth is that we are afraid to come out because of fear. In the past when we tried to come out and do our businesses, you saw what happened. People were killed while sporadic shootings rocked some parts of Enugu. My life is more precious than my business, so even though it is painful to stay at home, I have no option than to obey,” said Mr Pascal Udoji, a businessman at Ogbete main market in Enugu.

IPOB has no sit at home, except the days Kanu goes to court, anyone sitting home every Monday has their own agenda

It's really difficult for the people. However, a good number of our people understand that nothing good comes easy. You and everyone else should also know that MNK is not enjoying as clearly buttressed by Justice Nyako during the last hearing that the DSS detention facility is not a five star hotel. After all, we are all in it together.

Story. Imaginary market people.

Katsina state and Ogun state has been hijacked by terrorists and Afonja skull miners you're here worried that Igbos voluntarily chose to sit-at-home in respect of their son who is under persecution by Nigeria.

Even police station refuse to open. Are they also afraid?

Lai Mohammed, tell that story to your fellow Zombies cheesy

The problem with Enugu is not sit at home but the lack of water in that town. It is a shame that Enugu people have to buy dirty river water at expensive rates from greedy tanker drivers for their drinking, cooking, washing and toilet flushing.

You don't make omelette without breaking eggs..
Kanu lost his father and mother and cousins to this struggle. Thousands killed across biafraland ..
If folks don't want to participate, they can easily disobey. I think the IPOB authorities have told everyone to go about their normal duties on Mondays.
My impression is that people feel a bit guilty enjoying themselves on Mondays when The Lion of Biafra, aka Onyendu, is in the hands of the vandals.
It makes sense if you look at it critically

Those calling Ipob names are very far from the truth, only in Nigeria people will blaming you for their failures.

"Achoba isi ochu eje n'uzu', what brought about MNK & IPOB?, It's politicians & Nigeria structure. So blame your politicians who have ruled Nigeria & continue to marginalize our people.

If you like blame Ipob till thy kingdom come it's of no meaning.

People are lamenting and crying over the forced sit at home now been enforced by the new emerging leader of Iduu/Biafra Kingdon in the person of Simon Ekpa.DOS is now a sitting duck and I advise they shouldn't be making new pronouncements for any kind of order/ban because they have lost the war with Simon Ekpa already.They are no more in control of the bandits they created.

you know one thing with you people is shamelessness. So millions of people are obeying the sit at home because of Ipob then what is the work of the police, can we say that Nigerian police are totally useless since people ignore them to obey IPOB.
