Prof. George Obiozor, President-General of Ohanaeze Ndigbo, has chastised the Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB, over the South-East sit-at-home order.
The order to stay at home, according to Obiozor, was a slur on the region.
Obiozor told Ohanaeze’s Ameobi at the organization’s offices yesterday that the sit-at-home edict had cost businesspeople money.
He also bemoaned the recent surge in instability in the South-East.

According to Obiozor: “The Monday sit at Home is a slur on the Igbo. It is strange for a group to face the barrel of the gun inwards. Many people have estimated the huge loss the South-East incurs on a weekly basis as a result of the sit-at-home order. Ohanaeze Ndigbo has tried severally to persuade our youths to realize the consequences of their actions.
“Insecurity has pervaded almost all parts of Nigeria, but each geo-political zone has its own peculiarity.
“The advent of insecurity in the South-East is both bizarre and dramatic. The South-East had been adjudged the most serene and peaceful zone in Nigeria until April 5, 2021, when gunmen attacked the Correctional Facility in Owerri, Imo State and freed a total of 1,844 prison inmates. Since the April 5 episode, insecurity in the South-East has attained an unprecedented unbearable crescendo.”

IPOB called for a sit-in on Monday to demand the release of its incarcerated leader, Nnamdi Kanu.
Following public outrage, the group decided to confine the sit-in to the days Kanu would be in court for his trial.
Unknown organizations, on the other hand, have been implementing the Monday sit-at-home edict.
