The leadership of IPOB has called for a sit-in throughout the Southeast to remember the killing of 28 IPOB members by military operations on September 14, 2017 in the home of its leader, Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, in Afara Ukwu village, Abia State.

According to the Nation, the hoodlums confronted the driver of the bus delivering bread near Orie Emene and directed he turn around.

The hoodlums were enraged by the driver’s persistence in pleading with them for passage, so they hauled him out of the bus, looted the bread, and burned the bus on fire.

A group of joint security operators made up of police and military stormed the area shortly after the incident occurred.

Residents in the region and neighboring communities were reportedly forced to stay indoors as a result of the gunshot and subsequent arrests that followed the incident.

Students taking the present West African Senior School Certificate Examination (WASSCE) also had no problems writing their examination.

However, banks, shops, offices, markets, parks, malls, and business centers, among others, remained closed.
Recall that some hoodlums also disrupted an ongoing examination in Imo State on Monday, September 13, 2021, due to the disobedience of IPOB’s sit-at-home order.
