IPOB Calls For Sit-at-home Over Unknown Whereabout Of Nnamdi Kanu by Limitednow: 9:08pm On Aug 31, 2018
THE Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) has called for a Sit-At-Home protest over the unknown whereabout of its leader, Nnamdi Kanu.

Mr Kanu was last seen September 14, 2017 when troops of the Nigerian Army were exercising around his neighbourhood in Abia State.

The exercise which later turned into confrontation between the soldiers and members of IPOB led to the proscription of the group as a terrorist organisation by the federal government.

The proscribed group who declared September 14 as “a day of general strike, mourning and resistance across Biafra land,” warned that anyone found outside on September 14 will be classified as “an enemy of the people.”

IPOB Media and Publicity Secretary, Emma Powerful, in a statement Wednesday gave reasons why the group called for a sit-at-home order on September 14 across “Biafraland.”



He said they are carrying out the exercise to protest the invasion of the country home of its leader, Nnamdi Kanu, same date last year.

According to Mr Powerful, the protest will “be a way to register our anger regarding the men and women killed at Afaraukwu in Umuahia, during Operation Python Dance II on September 14 last year.”

“Those killed in Ngwa, Aba, Igweocha (Port Harcourt) and buried in unmarked mass graves as a result of unprovoked military invasion of Biafraland by the Nigerian Army.”

He said inhabitants of South-East/South-South and all conscientious Biafrans living in other parts of Nigeria and the world are required to stay indoors and away from work or daily business activities throughout the said day.

Mr powerful said all businesses, offices, markets, schools and road transportation will be shut down for 24 hours from midnight of the 13th of September. “There will be no human or vehicular movement across Biafraland.”

‘’We shall also remember all those killed in the struggle for the restoration of Biafra independence since August 2015 when the army shot dead Mr. Okafor in Onitsha on a peaceful march from Nkpor to Onitsha main town. Their sacrifice will neither be forgotten nor will it be in vain, because come what may, this generation of IPOB must and will restore Biafra.”



The event, he said, will also be dedicated to the “sacrilegious and disgraceful humiliation of Igbo women, some of them great grand-mothers, ranks as one of the most abominable act of desecration ever visited upon the land of Biafra in recorded history. It will mark the defining event that completed the shame and humiliation of the Igbo race.”

The IPOB spokesman said the group and the people of the South-east are also against the military’s plans to stage Operation Python Dance 3 this year

Mr Powerful said that the sit-at-home is the only way Biafrans can honour their fallen brethren and “legitimately remind our northern oppressors and their collaborators in our midst that enough is enough! We do not want another Operation Python Dance or another mass murder of Biafra agitators and humiliation of our mothers in our land.”

Previous sit-at-home orders by the group had always recorded significant progress particularly in the South-East.

Thought FFK said something about his whereabouts? Anyway, the Igbo leaders are betrayers. Biafra remains elusive as long as their leaders keep collecting "posts" from the Nigerian government and will not mind wiping out his entire family provided his interest is intact.

To compound issues, the stance of the International community on the issue of Biafra and Nigeria remains more deceitful. While they play the ostrich on the Nigerian issue, they are busy clamouring for "peaceful dissolution" and the emergence of newer nation states in other countries.

I see conspiracy.

The terrorist group has spoken with threats and fear mongering as it is their usual modus operandi.

Yes you know them well and that was how their members were told to go to polling booths in their localities during the Anambra guber election last year and write down names of their neighbours who would come out to vote, hope you know how the good people of Anambra humiliated them by coming out.

Yes, this is cause Biafrans are COWARDS. I urge them to do their worst and stop disturbing our peace with their imaginary Biafra, which will never see the light of the day.

We really should know what happened to Nnamdi Kanu. It's quite strange that he suddenly disappeared seemingly without trace. Probably the old Nadeco way. At least someone should be in touch with him.

By the way, what about his parents and other family members?
