IPOB: SCHOOLS, BANKS, SHOPS REMAIN CLOSED IN IMO DESPITE SUSPENSION OF SIT-AT-HOME ORDER

Commercial activities were on Monday August 30 grounded today in major parts of Owerri, the capital of Imo state, despite the suspension of the sit-at-home order by the proscribed Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB).

Recall that on July 30, IPOB ordered a Monday sit-at-home in the south-east until Authorities release its leader and founder, Nnamdi Kanu. The directive was however suspended on August 14.

Two weeks after, business activities are still grounded every Monday out of fear of the unknown.

There is little or no vehicular movements in Owerri and shops in Okigwe road, Wetheral road, and Bank road were under lock, while banks in some parts of the state were not open for business today.

We had earlier reported that Governor David Umahi of Ebonyi directed all civil and public servants to report to work on Monday despite the Sit-At-Home order issued by the outlawed Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB).
