In a viral video being circulating on social media, News Verified learnt that in Ebonyi State, on the 4th of July, 2023, a group of IPOB/ESN terrorists were seen shooting sporadically in the air at Ishieke market Abakeliki in Ebonyi State, in the name of enforcing the sit at home.
You will recall that Simon Ekpa, the leader of Autopilot, a faction of the IPOB, had, in a statement on June 14, announced that there would be a one-week sit-at-home in the South Eastern part of Nigeria.
Ekpa, a self-proclaimed Prime Minister of the Biafra Republic Government in Exile, said the sit-at-home would hold from 3 to 5 July and continue from Friday, 7 to 10 July.
He said it was aimed at demanding the “immediate and unconditional release” of IPOB leader, Nnamdi Kanu, who is in Federal Government detention.
However, the group who were seen terrorizing their own people, in the name of enforcing the sit at home have been apprehended by the security agent. It was gathered that the security operatives stormed their camp and arrested them.
