IPOB Ends Monday Sit At Home in the South East
IPOB spokeswoman Emma Powerful declared that the group’s sit-at-home directive had been rescinded and that anyone found enforcing it would be punished.
According to Powerful, IPOB leader Nnamdi Kanu has given his approval to the flyer distribution initiative announcing the cancellation.
Kanu called off the weekly sit-in in the south-east on July 28.
The statement from Powerful reads, “This is to inform Biafrans about the flyers and posters being distributed all over Biafraland conveying our leader’s famous pronouncement cancelling Monday sit-at-home.”
That “sit-at-home” was “not only dead but will never again be invoked or deployed as a tool of civil disobedience in our quest for self determination” was something he said should be communicated to “the good people of Biafra.”
“Any person or persons talking about a non-existent sit-at-home in Biafraland is an enemy of the people and shall be dealt with accordingly,” he warned.
Our prophet and tireless liberator, Mazi Nnamdi Okwuchukwu KANU, has given the go-ahead to print and hand out these flyers and put up posters.
“Those purporting to be running a Biafra Government in exile from somewhere in Finland, also known as autopilot, are not IPOB members, and their activities do not represent the views of the supreme leader Mazi Nnamdi KANU, the rank and file of IPOB, or the operatives of ESN.
“Moreo, it is an affront to the memory of our gallant martyrs who sacrificed their lives for the emancipation of Biafra that people who have never led ordinary street protests in Biafraland or anywhere in the world in support of the restoration of Biafra can claim to lead our people.
This is shameful on the highest level.
“We urge Biafrans to assist in disseminating the flyers and posters throughout Biafraland’s villages, towns, and cities.”
