However, the source said they were later confronted by the military who responded swiftly to counter their order.
As at the time of this report, it is not clear if there was any casualty on both sides.
Recalled that IPOB yesterday urged people in the South East to pray fervently for peace in the zone, unconditional release of Nnamdi Kanu, and restoration of a Biafra nation.
Although a statement by the spokesperson of the group, Emma Powerful did not order a sit-at-home but urged the people to lockup their shops temporarily during the duration of the prayers and open shortly after.
