The five-day sit-at-home order in the South-East region of Nigeria was lifted by Simon Ekpa, a self-proclaimed disciple of Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) leader Nnamdi Kanu.

On Wednesday night, Ekpa published a video on YouTube declaring the end of the five-day sit-in order, calling it “historic and successful” for Biafraland.

Ekpa further declared in the video that the South-East area will not host the 2023 elections, citing it as a “sacrifice” that the people of Biafra must make.

He stated that “ending Nigeria” must be accomplished by 2023.

The caption reads, “To end Nigeria in 2023 is a task that must be done! There will be no general election in Biafraland in 2023, it is a sacrifice and a task that must be done by all Biafrans across the globe.
