The Indigenous People of Biafra has declared May 18 and 26, 2022 as sit-at-home for the people of the South-East. The group said it declared the sit-at-home, being the court dates of its detained leader, Nnamdi Kanu as part of solidarity. In a statement on Saturday, the group’s Media and Publicity Secretary, Emma Powerful, also dissociated itself from a voice note purportedly announcing different dates, saying that any other date, is not from IPOB. He said, “Our attention has been drawn to a purported voice note ordering Biafrans and residents of Biafraland to sit at home on a date other than May 18. “Like Mazi Nnamdi Kanu said, if you did not hear it on radio Biafra then it is not from IPOB.
