The situation virtually paralysed both economic and social activities in the entire state.

All the major roads such as Mbaise, Okigwe, Wethedral, Duglas, Port Harcourt, Onitsha and Aba Road and streets in Owerri were practically empty as a motorist and commercial vehicles were nowhere to be found to convey few stranded passengers on the roads to their destinations.

The situation at the premises of hotels, eateries, motor parks, commercial institutions, business centres in Owerri was the same as their gates were under lock and key.
