IPOB accuses Nigerian military of lying about ending sit-at-home in South-East

Outlawed Igbo separatist group, the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), has accused the Nigerian military over claims that the ending of the Monday sit-at-home in the South-East region was as a result of its intervention.

Describing the claim by the military as laughable, the pro-Biafra group said security agencies had nothing to do with ending the sit-at-home as the directives came from its leader, Nnamdi Kanu who ordered that the orders must stop with immediate effect.

The Biafran agitators also accused the military of lying to Nigerians as operatives were “hiding” while unknown gunmen went about enforcing the sit-at-home on the orders of Simon Ekpa.
