The Anambra State governor, Willie Obiano has led a protest against the continued sit-at-home order by the proscribed Indigenous People of Biafra.
Though the outlawed IPOB had later suspended the order, residents had continued to stay at home every Monday apparently because of fear of possible attack by hoodlums.
On Monday, the state government moved to some streets in Awka, the state capital to enforce the return to businesses in the state.
The governor who led members of his executive council during the protest visited banks and markets at the state capital.
This comes as some people believed to be members of the proscribed group, stopped activities at the Comprehensive Secondary School, Nkume-Njaba in Njaba Local Government Area of
Imo State, where the English Language West African Examination Council (WAEC) Examination was about to take place, chasing away students from the examination hall.
Some Nigerians who spoke on Inspiration FM’s All Out Politics expressed anger at the move by the proscribed group to chase away students.
