The Pentecostal Fellowship of Nigeria has appealed to the Indigenous People of Biafra to reconsider its stand to shut down the South-East.
The outlawed group had threatened to shut the South-East for one week from November 5 in a bid to force the Federal Government to release its leader, Nnamdi Kanu.
The move will affect the Anambra State election scheduled for November 6, 2021.
Speaking at a special prayer rally in Enugu for God’s intervention in the South-East, the Enugu State Chairman of PFN, Bishop Goddy Madu, disclosed that any attempt to stop the election would throw up anarchy which would not be in the interest of the people.
Madu said, “Boycotting Anambra election is a call to anarchy because in a democratic setting, when you block elections, you give room for all manner of crises.
“You are agitating for something, but you are using the wrong key to open the right door, you will end up sweating for nothing.
“The call (sit-at-home) is using the wrong key to open the right door and it is not going to work out, because if the election did not hold, the governor by the constitution will not stay in office beyond one day.
“The dream of the Attorney-General, Abubakar Malami will come to pass, which is call for a state of emergency and then under such situation, it will no more be democratic setting.”
