The Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, in Rivers State has challenged the
Inspector General of Police, IGP, Mr Ibrahim Idris, to make public
details of Police investigations of the circumstances surrounding the
brutal murder of late Deputy Superintendent of Police, DSP Mohammed
Alkali, and his orderly in Uju community in Ogba Egbema Ndoni Local
Government Area during the December 10 re-run elections in the state.
Publicity secretary of the party in Rivers State, Mr Sam Nwonosike,
claimed the dismissal of the six police officers recently by the IGP was
a ploy to divert attention from the findings of the Police on the
murder of the late DSP and his orderly.
He said the reasons given by the Police for the dismissal of the six
police officers were contradictory, stressing that there was no way
Governor Nyesom Wike, as a lawyer, would violate electoral guidelines
while the election was on.
He said he was shocked by the alleged silence of the Police over
alleged electoral violence committed by its men during the re-run
elections, claiming he was among those allegedly manhandled by men of
Special Anti-Robbery Squad on the orders of a chieftain of the All
Progressive Congress who wanted results sheets snatched at all cost at
the collation centre in Ikwerre Local Government Area.
