The much anticipated day happens to be today, 30th May, the day to
remember the Biafran fallen heroes and heroines, 50 years after the
declaration of Biafran nation, by the late Biafran warlord, Dim
Chukwuemeka Odumegwu Ojukwu.
To observe the very remarkable day, the members of Indigenous People of
Biafra, IPOB, issued a sit-at-home order to all Biafran sympathizers and
the core Biafran agitators.
But the order which extended to all the residents of the old eastern
region, led to the shut down every movement in the region, the state
which is most affected are, Abia, Anambra, Enugu, Ebonyi, Imo, Delta and
Rivers State.
In Aba, one can stand at the corner of each street and see the other
end, which simply means the people of Aba observed the order to
sit-at-home.
Banks are closed, Schools are shut down, Markets are locked down, no vehicular movement.
