Governor Yahaya Bello of Kogi State
Kogi State Police Command has banned
public jubilation and/or demonstration after the Supreme Court delivers
its judgment on the state governorship election petition appeals...
The Commissioner of Police, Abdullahi Chafe, announced the ban at a news conference in Lokoja on Friday.
He said the judgment is slated for delivery on Tuesday next week.
Chafe said that intelligence reports
reaching the command revealed that some miscreants were planning to
foment trouble if the Supreme Court judgment should go contrary to their
expectations.
The police commissioner warned that
individuals or group of persons who cause break down of law and order
would face full wrath of the law.
He urged various political parties to
call their members and supporters to order so that peace would reign
after the delivery of judgment.
“Kogi State is greater than any body.
Police will not waste anytime in dealing with law breakers within the
constitutional requirement,” he said.
