Enugu Governor Peter Mbah today visited markets and schools on Monday June 5, to observerd the end of stay at home in the State.
In a statement via his verified Twitter account, Mbah wrote:
Today, I went round 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.
The governor had through his media team cancelled IPOB’s Monday sit-at-home order in Enugu State on June 1 when he said the order killed the spirit of entrepreneurship, commerce and creativity of residents of the state.
The government stated in its Saturday warning that all schools, markets, retail outlets, hospitals, transporters, malls and members of the public must comply with its cancellation of IPOB’s order.
It directed all residents in the state to go about their normal businesses and activities every day of the week, including Mondays.
“All concerned are required to comply with government directive as adequate security measures have been taken to guarantee their safety.
“Members of government’s taskforce will be moving around to monitor compliance.
“Any market, transport outlet, or any other body that fails to open for business risks being shut immediately.
