This was made known to newsmen in a

Powerful. However, in its
statement IPOB, ordered every Igbo person to
sit at home and remember their heroes and
heroines past.

According to him, “We should not be
discouraged by the court ruling of April 25,
2017. rather, we should be focused on May 30,
2017 remembrance day, which is the priority of
every IPOB member to ensure that no
movement of any sort, both human and
vehicular, across Biafra land on that day, will
take place.

“We must make sure that all areas occupied by
Biafrans for the remembrance and honour of
our heroes and heroines, who laid down their
lives during the genocidal war are shut down.
“Our leader (Kanu) has been in high spirit since
his arrest in 2015 and we cannot afford our
spirit to be dampened towards the liberation of
Biafra because of conditions attached to his
release.”
