Peter Mbah, governor of Enugu, says the state loses N10 billion every Monday to sit-at-home order issued by the proscribed Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB).
The governor described the sit-at-home as a setback to the delivery of his campaign promises.“If we take the impact the Monday sit-at-home has on our GDP, you will then begin to see why it is almost impossible for all of us,” Mbah said.
“We have a bargain that water will flow in your homes in Enugu city in 180 days and I am sure that you won’t take any excuses. They also urged the security agencies to continue to work round the clock to reassure citizens and residents of their safety.
