The people of Southeastern states of Nigeria ignored their governors Monday and complied with the order of Nnamdi Kanu’s Indigenous People of Biafra to sit at home.

The protest called by the so-called outlawed organisation was successful, as people stayed home.

It was to demand for the release of IPOB leader Nnamdi Kanu, from DSS detention.

Banks, offices, markets were shut, streets were deserted. Students who were expected to write the NECO test on Mathematics, also obeyed the order.Abakaliki Ebonyi market shut on Monday in obedience to Nnamdi Kalu’s IPOB

What this clearly shows is that the average south easterner has bought into the separatist campaign of IPOB, led by Nnamdi Kanu.

The average person listens more to Kanu, than Governors Obiano, Ugwuanyi, Uzodimma, Umahi and Ikpeazu.IPOB lockdown: Onitsha head bridge deserted on a Monday morning

Several of the governors ahead of the protest issued warnings to their people to come out for work.

The police also assured the people they will be protected.

But they didn’t heed the warnings and assurances.

The police, rather failed to protect themselves when gunmen attacked their Nnewi area command in Anambra.
