Prior to Thursday, September 9, 2021, President Muhammadu Buhari may have read of ghost nature of cities in the South East region of the country on the days the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) had declared what they call sit-at-home. But the president, no doubt would have had a feel of it when he came to Imo State on Thursday and met the streets of Owerri deserted, as residents sat back at home. Private businesses, commercial banks, filling stations and markets were shut, while vehicles disappeared from the roads.
Preparatory to the president’s visit, IPOB had issued a sit-at-home order in protest against what it described as the illegal detention of its leader, Nnamdi Kanu by the federal government.
