We Have Arrested 44 BIAFRA Protesters – Police

Police Commissioner, Rivers State commander, Musa Kimo has said that no fewer than 44 members of the so called Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) were arrested during the November 10, 2015 Pro-Biafra protest in Port Harcourt, the state capital and its environs.

The police chief also denied media reports that the recent protest by IPOB members in the state led to the death of some of the protesters.

CP Kimo, who spoke when he led some senior officers of the State Police Command on a courtesy call to the paramount ruler of Port Harcourt, Eze Victor Nnanna Woluchem, at his palace, said those arrested during the protest have already been charged to court and remanded in prison.

He said, “It may interest you to note that sometime when they (pro – Biafra protesters) came up, some arrests were made, investigations were conducted and they were prosecuted. As I speak to you, 44 of them are in prison custody.”
The police commissioner warned against all forms of protests in the state, pointing out that anyone caught will be dealt with in accordance with the laws of the country.

Kimo said, “So, we are on our toes and we are poised to ensure that we checkmate activities of antisocial elements in any disguise. I want to assure you the good people of Rivers State to continue to go about their lawful businesses as adequate security measures are already in place to protect lives and property.”

Responding, Eze Victor Woluchem commended police for improvement in the area of crime prevention.

He condemned the pro–Biafra protesters for bringing their protests to Rivers State.
