Commercial activities and vehicular movements were paralyzed for
hours, Tuesday, in the commercial city of Onitsha, Anambra State
following a peaceful demonstration by over 1000 members of the Movement
for the Actualization of the Sovereign State of Brafia, MASSOB, to
rehearse their proposed June 8 sit-at-home order.
Apparently to ensure the success and active participation of all Igbo citizens at home and in diaspora during the exercise, the MASSOB members, led by their Onitsha Region 4 Administrator, Chief Arinze Igbani, stormed the commercial city at about noon to carry out the exercise which took place simultaneously in five major local government areas of Anambra State, including Idemili North, Idemili South, Onitsha North, Onitsha South and Ogbaru.
The demonstrators had as early as 8 a.m., converged on Oba, Idemili South Local Government Area, from where they touched Awada, Idemili North, Onitsha North and South and finally ended the sensitization match at Ogboefere market in Ogbaru Local Government Area of the state at about 2 p.m.
