Sit-at-home: Gunmen Invade Imo School, Chase Candidates Away

Following the declaration of the sit-at-him-order by the Indigenous People Biafra (IPOB), unknown gunmen stormed Comprehensive Secondary School, Nkume in Njaba Local Government Area of Imo State, and chased away students.

The armed men reportedly invaded the school premises when some students were participating in the ongoing 2021 West African School Certificate Examination, and stopped the exercise.

At the time of the situation, Imo state Police Public Relations Officer, CSP Mike Abbatam, was reportedly unable to respond to calls and text messages.

Recall that IPOB had ordered that the region must observe sit-at-home every Monday in solidarity for its leader, Nnamdi Kanu, who has been in the custody of the Department of state services.
