    The Anambra State Police Command claimed it detained a suspect who was imposing an “illegal” sit-at-home beside the Oba flyover in the Idemili South Local Government Area of the state. 

    According to a statement issued on Thursday by state police spokesman SP Tochukwu Ikenga, the suspect was part of a band of four armed men regrouping to enforce the Indigenous People of Biafra’s sit-at-home order made on May 30.

    Ikenga stated that the suspect was apprehended after receiving information that some armed men on motorcycles were regrouping to implement the sit-at-home order in the area.

    He claimed that police officers that came into the area intercepted and demobilised the gang members, while the other three escaped with bullet wounds.

    He said, “Following the intel gathered, the operatives on May 29, 2024, by 2 p.m., laid ambush on the miscreants along Oba flyover, Idemili South LGA, intercepted a gang of four armed men operating on motorbikes, and demobilised one of the miscreants, while the other three escaped the scene with bullet injuries.

    “The operatives recovered a locally made Barreta pistol, four expanded cartridges, two phones, and some signals or initials showing unpatriotism and disloyalty to the Nigerian government.

    “Preliminary information showed that the armed men were regrouping to enforce illegal sit-at-home tomorrow, May 30, 2024. Meanwhile, the operatives are on the trail of the three armed men who escaped the scene.

    “To this end, the Commissioner of Police in the state, CP Obono Itam, charges the operatives to sustain the tempo of the onslaught against the criminal elements and continue to deny them the space they enjoy to commit havoc in the state.”

    Meanwhile, the command has issued a warning to anyone who disseminates dangerous sit-at-home content, stating that such behaviour could lead to a breach of peace.

    According to its spokeswoman, the command is fully aware of these secessionist operations and asks law-abiding residents to avoid such propaganda.

    “Rest assured, the police, along with other security agencies, have mobilised law enforcement resources to ensure the safety and security of every citizen in the state,” the command stated.

    The Indigenous People of Biafra have proclaimed a sit-at-home order for today, May 30, in recognition of Biafra Heroes Day, which remembers those who perished during the Civil War.
