APC Replies Gov Wike Over Dismissed Policemen

The Rivers State chapter of the All Progressives Congress (APC) has described the dismissal of six policemen attached to Governor Nyesom Wike for unethical conduct during the December 10, 2016, legislative rerun in the state as a clear indictment of the governor.

Speaking through its Publicity Secretary, Chris Finebone, in Port Harcourt, APC maintained that the decision of the Inspector-General of Police (IGP), Ibrahim Idris, to dismiss the six errant policemen who flouted his directive not to support politicians to rig elections was a step that would ensure sanity in the Nigeria Police Force.

APC in Rivers said: “The dismissal of the six policemen is a clear indictment on Wike over his violation of electoral regulations in the December 10 rerun elections in Rivers State.

“We believe that it is just a tip of the iceberg of what will be unravelled that were perpetrated by the Rivers State governor during the rerun.

“Nigerians are waiting for the IGP’s panel report that will seal the fate of Wike and his accomplices within the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC).”
