The Senate caucus of the People’s Democratic Party has deplored what it described as the Gestapo- style raid on the Abuja private residence of the Ebonyi State Governor, Dave Umahi, allegedly by the police.

The body of opposition senators described the raid as not only a direct attack on democracy but also an affront on the fundamental rights of a Nigerian citizen. Abaribe said, “Let’s assume it was hired thugs that invaded the residence of a sitting governor of a state. Whose duty is it to apprehend the brigands? Or do raids by thugs not constitute a crime?“The police must come clear and the only way to do that is to carry out a thorough investigation and apprehend the culprits. We are in a democracy and people should not be made to live in fear as though we are in a lawless society.
