All business activities were shot down, all markets were under
lock and key public and private Secondary and Primary Schools were
shot down, government offices and banks were also not opened for
business as they were under lock and key, Petrol and Gas filling
stations were also not opened for business as streets and roads
shops and artisans in both Onitsha and Nnewi shut for the day
business when Vanguard moved round the cities.

All the roads leading into and exit of Onitsha, the commercial
city, and those leading into and exit of Nnewi the industrial city
of Anambra State were ghosts of themselves as residents stayed away
in obedience to the Biafra groups directive.

The ever-busy Onitsha Enugu expressway of the Onitsha end of the
Niger Bridge leading to Awka, the Onitsha Owerri road expressway,
leading to Owerri, the Nnewi Okigwe expressway, the Onitsha Asaba
expressway from the Asaba end of the Niger Bridge were all ghost of
themselves as no single vehicular movement was seen.

There was however presence of stern-looking Army and Navy at
both ends of Niger Bridge Head and Oga junction by Atani road
respectively, ensuring that there is no breakdown of law and orders
by criminal elements.

Although the movement of people were restricted as soldiers
ensured that people who unavoidably needed to move round, like
journalists, doctors, nurses, and people on essential duties were
asked to properly identify themselves before they were allowed to
move to their respectives.
