Nnamdi Kanu, the leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), has urged the individuals responsible for the Southeast region’s sit-at-home order to desist from enforcing it.
This was revealed in a video clip, where Kanu spoke through Mike Ozekhome, SAN, his chief attorney.
Ozekhome reports that Kanu declared he did not support the sit-at-home strategy, stating categorically that he could not be fighting for his people while also crippling their economy.
In citing the impact of the sit-at-home campaign on the social, economic, cultural, and political life of the people, he bemoaned the psychological, psychical, and mental constraints it has placed on the Igbo nation.
“As his lead counsel and lawyer, he has told me that he does not believe in Sit-at-home; he can not be fighting for his people and shutting down their economy. How do they feed?
How will they train their children? Many a time, he cried to me in my presence that he wants to be released so that he can hold a world press conference and address the Igbo and Ala Igbo and the entire world to say, ”Don’t stay at home on Mondays, go about your normal duties, go to work; because the Bible tells us it is upon the labour of your hands, I will bless the fruits of your labour.
“So, I am now re-echoing again and again what Nnamdi Kanu has told me, ”He does not believe in that sit-at-home on Mondays,” which cripples the social, economic, cultural and political life of the people, putting them under psychological, psychical and mental stricture and torture”, Mike Ozekhome said.
