Many streets in Umuahia, Abia State capital were deserted, Thursday in compliance with the sit-at-home order by Biafra agitators to commemorate those who lost their lives during the Biafra war.

Although the capital city was not entirely locked down, there was skeleton movements as some residents stayed indoors.

As at 10:00am when our Correspondent moved round to monitor the situation, Abia Tower Round About opposite Post Office right at the City centre which on a normal day, used to be a busy area, was partially a ghost of its old self.

Most of the shops around the vicinity were not open while some business owners were observed hanging around.

Youths mostly apprentices were also seen playing football around the open space opposite former NUJ secretariat in the vicinity.

A shop owner at the vicinity who did not want her name on print said even though she came out, she believed strongly in Biafra.

She said she saw nothing wrong with observing a peaceful sit-at-home in honour of those killed during the civil war.

Motor parks in the capital city were totally on lock as drivers and commuters stayed away.

Although some schools opened, many others did not.

Banks in the state capital were also under lock and key except transactions at their Automated Teller Machines, ATM.

There, was however, no incidence of violence in any part of the state as at the time of filing this report.

Vanguard inquiries also revealed that Aba the commercial capital of the state was on a total lockdown.

Commercial and economic activities were said to have been paralysed as residents decided to comply with the sit-at-home order.

. Don't know about that

Commendable but I don't think people should be forced to obey. But why would you as an igbo person who understands what the Igbo nation went through in the civil war, why won't you observe a day to mourn loved ones who died in a struggle for freedom?

go to the page and engage them.

Most of these Eastern Governors are just stupidly confused. You can never see any Western or Northern Governor attacking or opposing this kind of events within their Region. Obiano and Okorocha as Governors respectively Honored and Observed Heroes Day during their reign including Ifeanyi Okowa.

Even Soludo in a low-key observd it a day after his swearing-in as current Governor. These present morons are waiting for Tinubu to give them go ahead order before they do what they know to be sacrosanct.

If you know you know...

MEn dey...

Over 5million Igbos killed during a civil war. It's only normal to commemorate the labours of the fallen heroes.


It's also safer to not introduce violence.

If you believe in Biafra, work for it.

1000 nd 1hundred kanu's will emerge. God bless prophet Mazi Nnamdi Kanu (SAW).

Eyah but the five locked states together, is bigger in landmass than the combination of Israel, Singapore, Luxembourg (Luxembourg is landlocked and the richest country in the world) those 3 Countries put together.

You that you that have access to the ocean and you regularly chat with Yemoja, what have you achieved with it?

Okay o

It never was about Kanu, it always been about your failed Nigeria that had never worked since 1960

This is why no Igbo man will ever rule Nigeria. Their loyalty is to their biafra and not Nigeria. We cannot handover our defence system to such potential saboteurs.

Anybody heard from Prof Gbajue yesterday?
