  Anambra  guber election in jeopardy as IPOB declares 5 day sit at home in November

ONITSHA, Nigeria – Anambra state governorship election  may suffer serious setback as the  Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), has declared total lockdown in all states in South East from  5th to 10th of November to compel federal government to  release their leader Nnamdi Kanu .

Independent National Electoral Commission INEC had fixed the state governorship on 6th November 2021. IPOB in a stated issued by its media and publicity secretary Emma Power said that following the adjournment of Mazi Nnamdi Kanu’s court case to 10th of November 2021, by the Federal High Court Abuja, it  demanded all lovers of Biafra and Biafrans to sit at home from 5 to 10 November to ensure that their leader is released.

“We the great movement and family of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), wish to inform Biafrans, friends of Biafra and lovers of freedom that IPOB will lock down Biafra land from 5th of November to 10th of November except Sunday, November 7th, a day our people worship the Almighty God, Chukwu Okike Abiama,  if  the Nigeria Government fails to release our leader unconditionally before 4th of November 2021” it stated.

IPOB said its leader    Nnamd kanu  must  be released unconditionally   on or before November 4, 2021 because he has not committed any offense known to any law. According to the group ,failure to release  Nnamdi KANU on or before November 4, 2021 there will be  one week Sit-At-Home beginning  on November 5, 2021 till November 10.

“Although we quite understand the pains and adverse effects of this option on our people, we are compelled to take it to achieve a better purpose in the collective interest of Biafrans. We have taken time to analyse what transpired on October 21 when our Leader was arraigned in court and discovered that the federal government is not sincere and only wants to humiliate him and keep him perpetually in DSS custody to rot there.

“We all saw how lawyers, journalists,  Igbo delegates and respected traditional rulers and other people who came from all around the world to witness his court case were restricted and denied access into the court premises by security agents who kept them outside under the scorching heat of the sun.

“What a humiliation and wickedness! “We cannot accept that anymore.  We can never allow our leader onyendu Mazi Nnamdi KANU to be tried SECRETLY and we can never also allow him to be tried under SHARIA law under any guise.

NIGERIA must follow International laws in handling our leader” it stated “It said that  Nnamdi kanu is in DSS dungeon  because of his passion for Biafra independence, noting that every Biafaran   must sacrifice all to ensure that he regains his freedom.

The group said that Kanu had   sacrificed so much for his people , urging them  to sacrifice little for him. “Unless the federal government releases him unconditionally before November 4, we shall sacrifice one week for him as a warning protest to convey to our oppressors that Nnamdi Kanu represents over 70 million Biafrans.

He is innocent of all the charges preferred against him. As long as he is in detention our individual businesses do not matter so much because he is suffering for us all and we can’t abandon him.

“We seriously regret the inconveniences this may cause our people but it’s a necessary sacrifice we need to make until we have our full independence. Nobody resident in Biafra land is expected to flout this directive as doing so amounts to challenging the will of the people on the Biafra project.

“This one week sit-at-home  is also to let our oppressors understand that we are not going to tolerate any plan to torment or abandon our leader in DSS custody through frivolous court adjournments. Any plans to subject him to trauma in detention through long adjournments while  real terrorists and mass murderers are having fun across the country cannot fly.

Nnamdi Kanu must be freed because he committed no crime. Asking for referendum so that Biafrans will decide whether or not they want to continue as part of Nigeria is no crime. He should not suffer for seeking justice for his people.

“We have been enslaved and caged enough by the Fulani controlled federal government of Nigeria and its allies. If we shut down Biafra land just for one week to secure our permanent freedom, it is worth the sacrifice. Everybody should brace up for this sacrifice. “This is the time all Biafrans must remain united. Let’s not give the oppressors and their agents any room to create division in our mist”, he said.
