The Peoples Democratic Party has urged the Inspector General of Police, Adamu Mohammed, to arrest the National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress , Adams Oshiomhole, for the violence which erupted in Bayelsa over the recent political development in the state.
Mr Oshiomhole had said on Thursday that nobody should be sworn in as governor. On Friday, he berated INEC for issuing a certificate of return to Mr Diri. The Commissioner of Police in Bayelsa, Uche Anozia, told journalists that a three-day curfew has been declared in the state from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. to forestall the breakdown of order.The police commissioner said eight persons have so far been arrested in connection with the protest.A radio station belonging to the Bayelsa state government was said to have been vandalised and looted by protesters.
Mr Ologbodiyan said Mr Oshiomhole’s statement was a call to sedition and violent subversion of the 1999 Constitution, the statutory authority of the Supreme Court and the mandate of the people of Bayelsa state.
