Ndigbo living in Lagos State has been urged to ignore any call for sit at home in Lagos State, South-East Nigeria or anywhere else in Nigeria.
The call to ignore sit at home order by Ndigbo, was made by Chief Charles Udo Udeogaranya, a one time Presidential aspirant in 2019 and an Ohaneze Ndigbo Worldwide chieftain, in a release sent to the press on Wednesday.
The development was followed by a tweet on Tuesday, from Simon Ekpa, living in far away Finland in Europe, the self-proclaimed disciple of the detained leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), Nnamdi Kanu, asking indigenes of Southeast Nigeria who are resident in Lagos to observe a sit-at-home exercise over an alleged attack on them.
However, in a swift reaction, Udeogaranya warned that it is crass madness, for someone who goes about his business and daily bread, fending for his family freely in a foreign country, to tell those he referred to as his people in Nigeria, to go for a senseless sit at home exercise, as if he would pay their bills or feed their younger one’s when they yawn for their daily bread or School Fees.
The Ex-presidential aspirant posits that even God, Our creator, who we worship, admonished us to work six days a week and rest on the seventh day for his worship, therefore, no devil can issue a counter order to what God has instructed us to adhere to.
Udeogaranya concluded by saying “we have many acceptable channels of seeking redress on any issue without resorting to a devilish, wicked, crude and malicious self-centered and self-destructive sit-at-home exercise, and that is why I commend those who have already filled various petitions to various quarters, including the International Criminal Court (ICC), seeking redress”.
