— The
Ijaw National Frontiers (INF) has called on the Inspector General of
Police, IGP Solomon Arase to investigate an attempt by the Bayelsa
State Police Command to cover up the facts about the alleged attack on
the former President Goodluck Jonathan on Monday.
A statement
issued by INF coordinator, Dr Esther Atani in Yenagoa on Tuesday said,
“We were shocked at the defence put up by the police in Bayelsa through
the command’s public relations officer, that the arrested gang members
are not militants but rather some set of hungry youths, who mistook Dr.
Jonathan’s convoy for that of the gubernatorial candidate of the APC,
Chief Timipre Sylva.
“As Bayelsans, we are familiar with several
of the elements being used as political thugs by politicians and we make
bold to say, that two members of the arrested gang are renowned
militants from the Nembe area of the state, who have various criminal
records, even with the police,” she said.
The group further said
the action of the police in Bayelsa was a pointer to the fact that the
security agency would likely be partisan in the days ahead of the
governorship election in the state.
“We, therefore, call on all
Nigerians of good conscience to join in demanding a thorough
investigation into the attempted attack on Dr. Goodluck Jonathan since
it is hard to believe that the police would join in insinuating that
those youths were unfamiliar with Dr. Jonathan’s residence and so
mistakenly followed him to the point of entering.
“We also demand
fairness from the police and other security agencies in their conduct
before, during and after the December 5 governorship election in the
state.
We must all rise to defend Nigeria’s Democracy,” the statement said.
