Wike Nyesom, the Rivers State Givernor, has directed
security agencies in the State to arrest Biafra protesters who had threatened
to resume protest by Monday, January 18th, 2016 if their leader,
Nnamdi Kanu was not released.
In a statement signed by Dr. Austin Tam-George, the Commissioner
for Information in the State, it had come to the attention of the Rivers State
Government that some Biafran agitators had resorted to illegal processions, and
had assaulted law abiding citizens and residents of the state. Governor Nyesom
Wike strongly condemns the acts of criminality perpetrated by Biafran agitators
by whatever name, in the Oyigbo area of the state, he said.
He added “The government has directed all security agencies
in the state to arrest and prosecute all Biafran agitators who flout the ban on
illegal separatist processions and demonstrations in Rivers State.”
He also urged all residents to be calm and law abiding.
