The Police Command in Anambra has commended residents for resisting the Monday sit-at-home order orchestrated by the proscribed Indigenous People of Biafra in the South East.
In a statement released on Wednesday in Awka, the command’s Public Relations Officer, SP Tochukwu Ikenga, lauded the people’s resilience.
The News Agency of Nigeria reports that the illegal sit-at-home has severely disrupted socioeconomic and academic activities across the region.
The Commissioner of Police in the state, Ikioye Orutugu, stated that the police had intensified security measures, including the Police Safe School Initiative, to combat insecurity.
“I want to thank the people of Anambra for standing up against the illegal sit-at-home order, thereby improving socio-economic activities,” Orutugu said.
According to him, the PSSI is a proactive strategy aimed at safeguarding schools, students, teachers, and staff.
He also highlighted the negative impact of the sit-at-home order and reassured residents that security agencies had taken control of the streets, particularly on Mondays, to ensure public safety.
Orutugu urged residents to go about their daily activities without fear of harassment.
