Nnamdi Kanu’s Sibling Halts IPOB Sit-At-Home Order

Kanunta Kanu, a sibling of Nnamdi Kanu, the embattled leader of the proscribed Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) has ordered the suspension of “Every Monday” sit-at-home directive issued to members of the group in South East.

The Biafra secessionist group in a statement by its Media and Publicity Secretary, Emma Powerful, had earlier reminded “all Biafrans and friends of Biafran that the Mondays sit-at-home order is sacrosanct.

“The entire Biafra land will be locked down every Monday from 6:00 am to 6:00 pm beginning from tomorrow, August 9, 2021, until our leader, Nnamdi Kanu who was abducted in Kenya and brought back to Nigeria and locked up in DSS dungeon in clear violation of international laws is freed”.

In a counter order, Kanunta said the sit-at-home order will be suspended to allow students in the South East geopolitical zone to participate in the National Examination Council (NECO) examinations.

He however noted that a new date for commencement of the sit-at-home order would be announced later.

Kanunta said the group arrived at the decision, after listening to pleas from well-meaning individuals and groups within and outside Biafraland that the order be suspended to allow students from Igboland to participate in the NECO Exam.

“IPOB has listened to pleas from well-meaning individuals and groups within and outside Biafra land that we consider the fate of our children who will be involved in the NECO Exam and based on that, we decided to shift grounds over the sit-at-home order”.

“IPOB on its part, having realized the academic deprivation the already marginalized Biafra students who entered for this year’s NECO would suffer, decided to suspend the sit-at-home order to a later date, to allow the students take their exams.

“Allowing the sit-at-home to go ahead as earlier announced, in the face of the NECO Exam would amount to assisting enemies of Biafra to inflict more injuries on her children.

“As a group fighting for the liberation of her people from oppression from her enemies, we realized that it would amount to assisting the said enemies to inflict more harm on our children if we do not suspend the sit-at-home order to allow Biafra students take their exams”.

“The sit-at-home order has not been cancelled, but only suspended for the sake of Biafra students taking this year’s NECO Exam. IPOB global family members and Biafrans at large to await further directives in this regard”.
