President Muhammadu Buhari arrived in Imo State on Tuesday to inaugurate some projects completed by Governor Hope Uzodimma.

A crowd of men in red caps and white outfits greeted him at the airport.

Women dressed in traditional attire are currently dancing from one end of the venue to the other.

Buhari is set to inaugurate the Owerri-Onu road as well as other projects. He is also scheduled to pay a visit to stakeholders at the State House.

This is amid the sit-at-home order purportedly declared by the Indigenous People of Biafra in the region, as the leader of the group, Nnamdi Kanu, would be appearing in court today, in Abuja, the Federal Capital Territory.

It was gathered the population at the venue of the inauguration is not as massive as it would have been expected, which sources said could not be disconnected from the IPOB sit-at-home order.

However, security at the inauguration venue and the state is said to be tight today.
