Panic in Enugu as gunmen shoot, beat residents who defy Simon Ekpa sit-at-home order

A video has emerged of the bedeviling atmosphere of Enugu state as gunmen storm the streets to attack residents who fail to comply with the sit-at-home directive as announced by Biafra agitator, Simon Ekpa.

In an attempt to demand the released of its leader, Nnamdi Kanu, the separatist called for a week-long civil disobedience in the southeast.

Recall that the sit-at-home directive began in 2012, after the arrest of the leader of the Indigenous Leader of Biafra, IPOB.

Ekpa noted that the sit-at-home in the region will end when Nnamdi Kanu is release.

Some residents who failed to comply to the sit-at-home order were dealt with mercilessly.

Videos circulating on social media showed moments some residents were beaten, shot at for violating the directive.
