Sit-at-home: You’re proscribed, don’t dare us, police tell IPOB

The Anambra State Police Command has warned the Indigenous People of Biafra not to dare it or be ready to face the consequences .

The police warning followed insistence by IPOB that it would on May 30 paralyse economic activities in the South- East and beyond in a sit – at – home protest .
According to the secessionist group , it would use the day to honour about 3 . 5 million people of Biafra killed during the civil war of 1967 – 1970 and others allegedly killed recently by security agencies in different parts of the geopolitical zone .

But in a statement by the Police Public Relations Officer in the state , Haruna Mohammed , the command warned IPOB not to dare it by going on with the planned protest , reminding the pro – Biafra group that it remained a proscribed organisation .

The statement read in part , “ Information at the disposal of the Anambra State Police Command has revealed that the outlawed group , Indigenous People of Biafra is perfecting plans through public announcement and threats in Nnewi and other parts of the state in order to enforce a “ sit – at – home , ” warning people to stay at home and not to come out for any business activities on May, 30 , 2019 .
“ For the avoidance of doubt , the Indigenous People of Biafra is still a proscribed organization ; hence , all its activities remain illegal .

“ The Commissioner of Police , Anambra State , Mustapha Dandaura , enjoins all Anambra people to disregard alleged calls by any group urging them to sit at home on 30 / 5 / 2019 and go about their lawful businesses . ”
