Commercial and economic activities, including movements, were on Monday paralysed at major cities of Onitsha, Nnewi, Ekwulobia and some parts of Awka in Anambra State as a result of the sit-at-home.
Also, when contacted on Monday, the Press Secretary to the governor, Christian Aburime, said the people should obey the state government’s directive on ending the sit-at-home.
A market leader in Onitsha identified as Chief Nnamdi Ogwu described the sit-at-home as “senseless”, saying it is high time it is stopped. “We can’t afford to continue the exercise in 2023, even the Indigenous People of Biafra has cancelled it, it is now left for our security agencies to live up to expectation by beefing up security around public places so that people can go about their normal businesses without any fear of attack,” Ogwu added.
