Biafra: Protesters chanting songs of Biafra as Buhari boycotts visit to Enugu
ENUGU— Hundreds of the Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB, today stormed the busy streets of Enugu metropolis in order to register their anger and displeasure over the proposed visit of President Muhammadu Buhari to Enugu.
The protesters who moved from the ever busy streets of Ogbete Main Market crisscrossed through the Central Police Divisional Headquarters and headed to the Coal Camp section of Enugu singing, and shouting.
They vehemently opposed the use of masked witnesses in the ongoing trial of the leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra, Mazi Nnamdi Kanu at the Federal High Court, Abuja, saying that Buhari must obey Biafra and release their leader.
The atmosphere has been calm and peaceful, with little or no traffic jam but vehicular movements are being controlled to restore normalcy as people went about their normal businesses.
However, according to our sources, it has become certain that President Buhari will no longer visit Enugu as speculations are ripe that he might have cancelled his planned visit.
Stay tuned for more update as they unfold.
