Sit-At-Home Crisis: Simon Ekpa Writes EU, US Government, Demands Visa Ban For Enugu Governor, Mbah Over Killing Of TradersEkpa condemned the sealing of businesses and killing of residents for protesting against closing their shops, while demanding for a visa ban on Governor Mbah.

Residents of the South East including Enugu State have been observing the sit-at-home on Mondays until July 5, 2023, when Mbah declared a ban on sit-at-home, insisting that the protest was ruining the economy of the state. Following the development, Ekpa condemned the brutal attack on the people of Biafra who are exercising their fundamental human rights to protest in a letter written to the international community.

“Peter Mbah is confiscating and locking up people’s businesses and means of sustenance without recourse to the constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria or any chatter, treaty or convention known anywhere in the civilized world, thereby denying the people of Enugu State the right to personal property and free enterprise.
