Sit-at-home: …Because they profit from it, they are not going to stop it – Abaribe

Enyinnaya Abaribe, the senator representing Abia South, has asserted that Simon Ekpa, who claims to be a follower of Nnamdi Kanu, is utilizing the sit-at-home directive as a means of generating money.

During an interview with Channels TV, Abaribe indicated that this financial aspect is the driving force behind Ekpa and his associates’ reluctance to rescind the order.

The senator highlighted that leaders from the South-East region have reached a consensus to engage with the government led by President Bola Tinubu concerning the ongoing detention of Nnamdi Kanu.

Abaribe said: “Of course, the man who is profiting from it, who is far away in Finland, denounced it and put more conditions saying they will never stop it until we (South-East leaders) see him in Finland.

“We can now see that because they profit from this, they are not going to stop it because it has become a money-making venture.

“We have seen adverts on the internet asking people to contribute money for the liberation of Biafra.”
