Anxiety Over IPOB’s Sit-At-Home Order In Ebonyi

• The residents of Ebonyi State have been thrown into anxiety over IPOB’s sit-at-home order in the state.

EKO HOT BLOG reports that the residents of Abakaliki, the Ebonyi capital have been thrown into panic over the sit-at-home order by the members of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB).

The IPOB leader, Nnamdi Kanu, had earlier called on the residents of the five eastern states to stock food items ahead of the order.

However, some of the residents, on Saturday, stated that the sit-at-home was worrisome, noting that the order came at a period of harsh economy in the country.

It was further learnt that shops and markets were opened for business but residents in the state were still buying food items over fear of subsequent attack.
