A heavy downpour in the early hours of Thursday forced protesters in Imo State to abandon their plans to storm the streets. The adverse weather conditions temporarily thwarted the efforts of the mobilized group, leaving the roads deserted.
Typically bustling streets like Wetheral Road, Douglas Road, and Bank Road were eerily empty, with offices and businesses closing their doors. The usually vibrant cityscape was transformed, as residents stayed indoors, gripped by a sense of unease and uncertainty. The inclement weather added to the tension, highlighting the city's fragile atmosphere during these turbulent times.
