Photos: Buhari arrives Imo as residents comply with IPOB’s sit-at-home order

President Muhammadu Buhari has arrived in Imo State.

The jet carrying Buhari landed at the Sam Mbakwe Airport in Owerri, the state capital.

The President who was clothed in the Isi Agu Igbo native attire was welcomed by some of the elders in the state.

There was also a heavy security presence at the airport.

Imo State Governor, Hope Uzodinma, had disclosed on Saturday that President Buhari would visit the state on Thursday to “address some political matters and some critical issues.”

Uzodinma also said the President would commission “significant projects” while in Imo.

IPOB in a broadcast on Monday declared Thursday as a Sit-at-home protest over the president’s visit.

It was gathered that residents of Owerri, the state capital complied fully with the directive given by IPOB.
