Anambra State New Media @AnambraNewMedia

I embarked on a routine tour of some major markets in Onitsha to see how the people fared. I seized the opportunity to reiterate our stand on the now infamous Monday “sit-at-home”

We’ll continue to encourage our people to own their land. Anambra will continue to win!

-Gov. Soludo

Soludo threatens to seal shops of traders observing Monday sit-at-home

8th October 2024

Anambra State Governor, Prof. Chukwuma Soludo, has threatened to seal any shop or plaza closed on Mondays in compliance with the sit-at-home order initially declared by the Indigenous People of Biafra.

Soludo issued the warning during an inspection tour of the Main Market in Onitsha on Monday, where he expressed his displeasure over the large number of locked shops and plazas.

The governor visited the market, known as the largest in West Africa, to observe the level of commercial activity amid the lingering sit-at-home order.

Since IPOB declared the sit-at-home in 2021 to protest the extraordinary rendition of its leader, Nnamdi Kanu, the exercise has continued to disrupt business activities in the South East, despite IPOB’s official suspension of the order.

Fear of violent enforcement has caused markets, schools, banks, and other businesses to remain closed every Monday.

Soludo, who inspected the market, warned that any trader or business that refuses to open on Mondays would face severe penalties, including the sealing of shops for up to one month.

He stressed that the persistent closure of businesses on Mondays would damage the local economy, as customers might start going to other regions to purchase goods.

He said, “I am here to ensure that your shops are open.
From now on, every Monday, the Main Market must be open for business,” the governor declared. “If you fail to open, your shop will be sealed for one week, and if necessary, for up to one month. When you are ready to open, it must be from Monday through Saturday.”

Soludo assured the traders that adequate security measures would be in place to protect them, urging them to resume full commercial activities on Mondays.

Beast on the loose. If na you be shop owner, will you subscribe to this suicide mission?

Akuko ndi ara

Soludo rest abeg

The Monday Sit At Home is only serious in Abia state.
Those in other SE states don't really care.

Great

Someone has to take the bulls by the horn.

Sadly the one that wants to be the president of Nigeria,a multiethnic nation failed to take advantage of the situation.
Charity they say begin at home

Nice one by the government, but after enforcing such laws...he should provide top notch securities for the traders to save them from impending attacks from the foot soldiers of the man who passed such myopic orders....


I sell herbs for sexual enhancement tho

A governor has no such powers

D rubbish is just too much.


It's affecting the economic potential of the state.

The is not the right way to get a REFREDRUN

If his power reach let him enforce his own order, powerdrunk politicians

When we warned them not to support kanu dem insult us, now Nnamdi kanu has destroyed the east... No more peace.

What a shame on the people of the east that allowed a miscreant like kanu destroyed their economic wellbeing and peace all in the name of fighting for Biafra.

Wow.

An educated man said that? Unbelievable.

He could as well force them to sleep in the market.

Good one

Jesus saves
Repent from your sins and be ye saved

Lol
Not sure he said that. Fit be bloggers handwork

How many times will he repeat this threat

Na you buy shop for them, is it by force to open your own shop?

Toh

One of 9th wonder of the world. How can a tribe known for their sense and intelligence be sitting at home every Monday because of one useless scammer called NMK? And if such directives is issued to them let says in Lagos or Kano that they should not open market because of renovation or sanitation they call it witch hunting. Isn't that madness?

Mumu talk...u only want innocent people to loose their lives...
5sars officers where shot 5days ago in nnewi,few taken alive nothing happened till now talk more of when ordinary masses r killed...ngbafor nwoke won't do any thing

We have leaders who just want to answer YOUR EXCELLENCY,there is nothing excellent about them. A professor is bout to put citizens life at risk ,engaging daredevil gunmen.If all is in order,there won't be need to give this sort of order.

As it should be

There is a video right there and it's from the Anambra State Government's official Twitter feed.

I can't believe this sit-@-home order is still functioning in the SE.

This is incredible!

ARISHEM:
How many times will he repeat this threat

He wants to show federal government that Simon ekpa isn't in charge...

If only other eastern "heavyweights" like Charley rat, gorimapa Ezekwesili and Pétérù Obi could back Soludo, Simon guguruekpa would have entered house by now.

Soludo na man you bi.
