BIAFRA SIT-AT-HOME: Police warn group, as IPOB says no going back on protest

As members of Indigenous Peoples of Biafra, IPOB, prepare for their world wide protest and sit-at-home action tomorrow, in all ‘Biafra Land,’
Abia State Police Command has warned that it would deal decisively with anybody or group that attempts to disrupt economic and social activities in the State. 

IPOB said the planned protest and sit-at-home is to push for the release of their detained leader, Mazi Nnamdi Kanu. 

Already, the Uchenna Madu-led Movement for the Actualization of the Sovereign State of Biafra, MASSOB, has thrown its weight behind the planned protest. 

But the state Commissioner of Police, Mr. Leye Oyebade has told them that it is only the government that has the power to declare public holiday, warning that any group that tries to infringe on the law by forcing public holiday on the people would be dealt with decisively, according to the laws.
