Nigeria@61: Gov. Umahi dares IPOB, says Ebonyi can’t obey sit at home

Ebonyi State Governor, David Umahi, said the people of the state will no sit at home on October 1 as ordered by the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB).

Umahi told reporters that the celebration was important to all citizens and Ebonyi in particular due to its creation on October 1, 1996.

“Anybody that says sit at home should know that Ebonyi people are not going to sit at home. I appeal to the entire South-East people to remember the danger of this order. Many people have been killed for no reason.

Agitation is natural and fundamental, but nobody is justified to carry guns illegally to kill other people. We condemn in totality the insecurity in the South-East being instigated by our people.”
