IPOB, through its spokesperson Emma Powerful, had designated May 30th as a day to observe sit-at-home activities in honor of those who lost their lives during the civil war. Emphasizing the significance of the day, IPOB stated, “Annually, we celebrate 30th of May as our heroes and heroine’s day when we remember the men and women who died that we may live, before, during, and after the Nigeria genocidal war against Biafrans between 1967 and 1970 and beyond and even until now.”
“30th of May is a solemn memorial day for Biafrans,” IPOB added, urging Biafrans to observe a sit-at-home day to pay respects to their fallen heroes. The directive encompassed all sectors, including schools, government offices, private entities, banks, transport unions, and markets.
However, contrary to IPOB’s directive, students in Ebonyi State proceeded with their WAEC examinations across the three zones. Under the supervision of the Commissioner of Education, Prof. Nwobasi, exams were conducted smoothly.
Commending the efforts of Governor Francis Ogbonna Erishi Nwifuru, the Commissioner of Education praised the provision of adequate security measures in schools, ensuring the safety of students during the examination period
