Professor Charles Soludo, the governor of Anambra State, proclaimed the end of the state’s Monday sit-at-home strike on Monday.
Since last year, most Southeast states have marked Mondays as “sit-at-home” days. The Indigenous People of Biafra declared it to press for the release of Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, the group’s leader, who is being held on terrorism, bail jumping, and running proscribed group charges.
The state’s sit-at-home day was proclaimed over at prayer in Awka on Monday.
This was stated in a press release issued following the meeting, which was attended by a number of stakeholders.
Soludo stated that “We have prayed to God, admonished our people, and made a commitment to ensuring that everyone concerned gets expeditious justice.
“Following the unanimous agreement of our leaders across the board, and the endorsement of the entire body of Christ, I am pleased to inform our people that today, Monday, April 4, 2022, marks the official end to the ‘Monday sit-at-home in Anambra State.”
He added that the proclamation would be followed by the establishment of the state’s Peace and Reconciliation Committee, which would address the state’s many concerns. He also stated that the group will intervene with the federal government on behalf of several Biafran captives, whom he dubbed “Prisoners of Conscience.”
Quoting him, “Shortly, I will be announcing the membership of the Peace and Reconciliation Committee that will look into addressing all areas of sincere challenges, including interfacing with the federal government on behalf of all prisoners of conscience.
“I have also offered amnesty to all our brothers in the various forests around us. Give us your guns, and trust us to help you forge a meaningful living.
“The task of taking back our dear state and reclaiming the dignity of our collective existence is at the heart of our drive towards a liveable and prosperous homeland.
“This task is a MUST. I call for your support and prayers, as we have resolved to fiercely go after criminal elements who are out to threaten our peace and distort our development.
“Anambra is the Light of the Nation; we must keep it so.”
