Add BBN on 2BAFB965
The Nigeria Police few minutes ago released a statement explaining why there was heavy presence of police officers at the National Assembly this morning. The security presence prevented Tambuwal and other lawmakers from gaining access into the Assembly ground. What transpired after was the teargassing of the Speaker and his Comrade-In-Arms.
Below is the statement signed by the force Public Relations Officer, Ag. CP Emmauel C. S. Ojukwu, psc and made available to BlackBox Nigeria...
Following an intelligence report of a likely invasion of the House of Representatives by hoodlums and thugs, the Nigeria Police Force promptly deployed its personnel to the premises to prevent a breakdown of law and order.
Consequently, the Police condoned the area and began screening of all members and visitors alike.
In the course of this lawful exercise, Alh. Aminu Tambuwal CFR, arrived the venue with a motley crowd, who broke the cordon, assaulted the Police and evaded due process and the Police had the duty to restore order and normalcy, using lawful means
The IGP seizes this medium to warn all political actors and their followers to respect constituted authority and due process and to desist from the use of thugs to pursue their agenda.
The Nigeria Police shall continually apply all lawful means to prevent a breakdown of law and order in all segments of the society and shall apply the full weight of the law on any political actor who violates the peace and security of the nation.
