The group, in the statement, said “this year’s annual Biafra Remembrance Day and candlelight procession will take place on Sunday night 30th of May, while sit- at-home and total lockdown takes place on Monday, 31st May, 2021, and not May 30th as earlier announced.
“The adjustment is to enable Churches to hold their normal services on Sunday, May 30th without any obstructions. But there will be no human or vehicular movement throughout Biafra land on Monday 31st May.
“Every person in Biafra land is, therefore, advised to observe a sit-at-home order on Monday, 31st May 2021. That day is a sacred day in Biafra land in honour of the over 5 million Biafrans massacred by the wicked Nigeria forces during the civil war.”
The group said all markets, filling stations, motor parks, airports, seaports, banks, schools, others 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 6:00am to 6:00pm on that day. People are to stock their houses with food items before that day so they won’t have a need to shop on that day.”
The statement said further that” anyone violating this sit-at-home order should blame themselves for whatever fate befalls them as a penalty for stubbornness.”
