Enugu Gov, Peter Mbah Visits Communities, Condemns Monday Sit-at-Home

Governor Peter Mbah of Enugu State on Monday went around the state’s metropolis and urged the people to come out and go about their various businesses.

Mbah disclosed this on his official Twitter handle where he also shared photos from his outing.

While condemning the Monday sit-at-home, the governor said no one should encourage the crippling of the state’s economy but must work to ensure it is revived.

He wrote, “Today, I went around Enugu metropolis to urge our people to come out and go about their various businesses.

“Ndi Enugu will not continue to sit at home on Monday, the first working day of the week. We should not encourage the crippling of our economy but must work to ensure it is revived.”

Recall that the governor had on Thursday last week declared the Monday sit-at-home by the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) to press for its leader’s release as antithetical to the economic interest of the state, saying it should stop from June 6.

In other news, Kanyi Daily reported that Nigerian author, Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie has mourned her Ghanaian counterpart, Ama Aidoo who died recently.

Adichie described Aidoo as a “deeply wise writer.”
