The Enugu state government has threatened to shut down schools and markets that obeyed the illegal one-week sit-at-home order declared by a section of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) to protest the illegal arrest and detention of its leader, Mazi Nnamdi Kanu. “The Enugu State Government is alarmed and dismayed by this development and hereby warns that any school that fails to open and function normally from today will have its license revoked immediately. “The Enugu State Government also extends the same warning to market unions and shop owners in the state. All markets and shops in the various markets must be open to customers from today or be shut down indefinitely. This, however, is by no means, depriving citizens freedom of speech and information as enshrined in the constitution.”READ ALSO FROM NIGERIAN TRIBUNE
