The Rivers State Police Command has debunked reports of an altercation between supposed military forces allegedly loyal to former Governor Nyesom Wike and current Governor Siminalayi Fubara at the Rivers State Government House in Port Harcourt.
In a statement on Sunday by its Public Relations Officer, Grace Iringe-Koko, the state command clarified that no such incident ever happened, adding that the report is fabricated by mischief makers, intending to cause unrest in the state. “We can confirm that there was no such incident, and this narrative is a deliberate fabrication aimed at inciting fear, confusion, and unrest within Rivers State.
” Iringe-Koko assured that the Nigeria Police Force and other security and law enforcement agencies “remain in full control, actively maintaining peace and security in Rivers State and across the state.” The statement advised members of the public to disregard the rumors while advising against “spreading unfounded and destructive reports”.
