FINISH authorities have arrested pro-Biafra agitator Simon Ekpa.
Ekpa was arrested by the police in his residence in the Lahti area of the country on Thursday.
The separatist has repeatedly declared that there will be no elections in the South-East region of the country and insisted on the observance of a sit-at-home every Monday in the area to protest the detention of the leader of the Indigenous Peoples of Biafra – IPOB, Nnamdi Kanu.
The killings in the South-East have been repeatedly linked to the sit-at-home in the area.
But IPOB has distanced itself from the Finland-based Ekpa who was reportedly billed for an interview before his arrest.
