“There will be a total lockdown all through Biafra land on that day as we remember all our fallen heroes and heroines including agitators who have paid the supreme price in the course of our struggle for independence since 1967 till date.
“All markets, filling stations, motor parks, airports, seaports, banks, schools, etc as well as social activities in Biafra land are to be shut down on that day. Everyone is to remain indoors in Biafra land from 6:00 am to 6:00 pm on that day. People are to stock their houses with food items before that day so they won’t need to shop on that day.

Therefore, we all should remain inside so they will see no Biafran abduct, kill or maim.
“Once again, anyone violating this sit-at-home order should blame themselves for whatever fate befalls them as a penalty for stubbornness.”
