Ahead of the rerun election in Rivers, Governor of the state Nyesom Wike has accused the Rivers State Police Commissioner, Mr Francis Odesanya of withdrawing the security details attached to him.
According to The Vanguard Wike said this on Friday when he flagged the reconstruction of the Igbo-Petche Road.
He said, “As I speak with you, the Commissioner of Police has withdrawn the security around me. It is God that will protect me.
“As a governor, the Commissioner of Police has the effrontery to withdraw my security. There is no limit to this kind of intimidation and impunity.”
The governor claimed the security manual to be used for the election by the Rivers State Police Command has been intercepted by him.
But the Commissioner of Police, Mr Odesanya, denied Wike’s claim.
He said, “It’s not true that Policemen were withdrawn from the governor.
“I have not withdrawn any of his (governor’s) Policemen. How can I withdraw his Policemen, who will now protect him. I can’t withdraw governor’s security now. How can I. You know politics is very close so you hear all kind of things”, he said.
