Anambra State Governor, Prof Chukwuma Soludo has told the peace-loving people of the state to ignore the sit-at-home order from Simon Ekpa and go about their normal business.
Speaking through the state press secretary, Mr. Christian Aburime, Governor Soludo said the state government cannot take orders from fugitives seeking for international attention.
“Anambra State under the leadership of Governor Chukwuma Charles Soludo will never yield to non-state actors on this illegal sit-at-home order.
“Simon Ekpa is a fugitive and rabble rouser who should be completely ignored by the citizens of Anambra and by extension the entire South East.
“The imposition of sit-at-home orders by unauthorized individuals or groups is a clear violation of the law and Anambra State will never observe any sit-at-home order by a Simon Ekpa.
“Our markets, schools, businesses and other social activities will remain open. Anambra State will never be a breeding ground for anarchy, fear or lawlessness.” the statement reads.
