#BIAFRA: Ebonyi Gov Makes U-turn, Directs Traders To Observe Sit-at-home Order by unclenna(m): 9:16pm On May 30, 2021 |
Contrary to his earlier position, Ebonyi State Governor David Umahi has directed traders to observe Monday 31 sit-at-home order by the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB). Umahi gave the order on Sunday evening in a statement made available to newsmen by his Special Assistant on Media and Publicity, Mr Francis Nwaze Umahi made the call less than 24 hours after he threatened to seize any shop or business premises that are locked up on Monday in compliance with the no-movement order of IPOB. The statement reads: “The Government of Ebonyi State has received several requests from some families and residents of the state, requesting that they would like to remain indoors on Monday, May 31, 2021, to organise private family prayers in honour of their loved ones who were murdered during the unfortunate civil war. Some of the people with this special request own shops in some of our markets across the state. “While as a government, we remain resolute in the protection of lives and property of Ebonyians and all residents of Ebonyi State, we are aware that it is the right of anyone to remain at home or go about his/her normal businesses in this regard. “Following the foregoing, the Governor, Engr David Nweze Umahi, who is highly in touch with the people has directed that those who may wish to remain at home with their shop(s) locked should neither be penalized, nor their shop(s) seized as it is their constitutional right while the rights of those who may wish to go about their normal businesses should not be infringed upon as it is equally their constitutional right. “He has also directed security agencies to do everything possible to maintain law and order in the entire Ebonyi State while maintaining the ban of any procession and gathering of any kind throughout the state.” https://journalist101.com/2021/05/30/biafra-ebonyi-gov-makes-u-turn-directs-traders-to-observe-sit-at-home-order/ |

Does he really have the power to confiscate a shop because the owner decides to close for a day in commemoration of whatever he believes? He can only dictate to the civil servants whose salaries need his approval. 1 Like |

Stupid oaf of a governor! So he did not know that it was the constitutional tight of state residents to open or close their shops as they deem fit? Or he is not aware that indeed, Igbos lost loved ones during the war and deserve a day or period of annual remembrance and mourning?! He is very lucky that he indeed received 'messages' and has rescinded his previous vacuous order! A sensible governor would even declare a public holiday in the state for that day but we have a bunch of lily-livered idiots in the SE as governors...how unfortunate! 2 Likes |
