The Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) has cancelled the sit-at-home order in the South-east scheduled, for Thursday, May 26, 2022.
This is due the postponement by the Federal High Court of the trial of the leader to June 28, 2022.
According to a statement on Wednesday by IPOB’s Spokesman, Emma Powerful, the hearing was postponed because the trial judge, Justice Binta Nyako is feeling unwell.
Powerful disclosed that Kanu’s counsel, Ifeanyi Ejiofor, had informed the group about the development hence the cancellation of the sit-at-home order on Thursday but also postponed to June 28.

“Sit-at-home will hold on 28th June 2022. According to the Registrar, this is because Justice Binta Nyako is indisposed, and as such, the matter is now adjourned to the 28th day of June 2022 for Ruling/Hearing. We most respectfully, urge you all to maintain restraint, as you have always done. Keep your eyes on the ball, which is the freedom of Mazi Nnamdi Kanu,” Powerful said.
”Also, please note that Justice delayed is not justice denied. We are aggressively cruising to the victory of our Leader, it is only a matter of time.
”There is no sit-at-home again tomorrow Biafrans should bear with us. We profoundly appreciate your solidarity, unflinching support and prayers, which have been sustaining us thus far. Please do not relent in your prayers, we do not take them for granted. We shall continue to keep you all informed as events unfold. ”
