The Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) led by Mazi Nnamdi Kanu has called on the Management of Nnamdi Azikiwe University, Awka, to suspend the proposed University’s convocation slated for 30th May, 2024.
IPOB in a joint letter to the Vice Chancellor,,Prof Charles Okechukwu Esimone and WAEC Board signed by the publicity secretary, Emma Powerful also advised WAEC to Kindly reschedule examinations fixed for the same day because 30th of May is the Biafra Heroes Day and a sit-at-home for all Biafrans in the Biafra Land.
IPOB made it clear that it will not only enforce the 30th May sit-at-home but will also not take responsibility for whatever happens to the violators.
IPOB therefore warned all the persons and institutions against insulting and desecrating the memories of our fallen heroes, stressing that IPOB is not Umunna meeting or community meeting to be toyed with.
According to IPOB, movement of persons and vehicles are not allowed except those on essential or emergency services such as Health workers, Ambulance, Fire Service, Filling Stations, Hospitals etc.
