The group commended members in South Africa, USA, Canada, Britain, France, Japan, Germany, Indonesia, Australia, and other countries of the world for their resoluteness and declared to the world over that they were no longer interested in Nigeria.

The statement reads: “Today’s Sit at home order issued by the global movement of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) on 1st of October 2020 is totally successful in so many states and cities in Biafraland. All states in Biafraland complied with the order, Abia State, Rivers State, Ebonyi State, Anambra State, Imo state Delta state, and other states in Biafraland.

“The compliance of this order is to showcase our readiness for the speedy coming of Biafra freedom and independence.
