2027: PDP chieftain makes shocking revelation about Nigeria Police

A chieftain of the Peoples Democratic Party,

and National Publicity Secretary of the  Tanimu Turaki faction of the party, Comrade Ini Ememobong has accused the police of being partisan.

Ememobong made the remark following the unsealing of the national secretariat of the party and the Legacy House in Abuja by the Nigeria Police.

The two properties were sealed in November following a clash between the Tanimu Turaki led group and the Wike backed Caretaker Committee which has now been confirmed as the leadership at the recent convention.

The police on Saturday handed over the properties to the  Wike backed faction.

Ememobong accused the police of aiding the take over of the party secretariat by the Wike backed National Working Committee by reopening the building.

He  said in a statement that reopening the secretariat was contemptuous as the court order relied upon by the police for their action is already before the Court of Appeal.

He said:”It is on record that the judgment by Justice Abdulmalik that the police force is allegedly acting under has been appealed, and the police, as a party in that matter, is fully aware and has been served. “By their action, they have tampered with the res and that can render the judgment of the Court of Appeal nugatory, when it is eventually given. It is most shameful that those entrusted with protecting the law are those disobeying the law.

“While it is not surprising that the Police is acting in a clearly partisan manner, we were hopeful that they would act differently under the command of the new Inspector General of Police.

“From the inception of this imbroglio, the officers of the police force have consistently acted in a manner that leaves no one in doubt as to their support for the Wike-backed APC apologists and have continued to double down on their partisan interventions.

“As law-abiding citizens, we admonish our members to continue to maintain peace and not undertake any activity capable of breaching public peace, while we promise to take all necessary steps within the ambit of the law to protect the rights and privileges of the genuine members of the Peoples Democratic Party.

“The public should be assured that we are hopeful that soon this dark cloud of state-sponsored persecution and one-party compulsory drive will end and true democratic experience will return, in the interest of preserving the republic.

“Though pains may tarry in the night, joy and liberation will certainly come in the morning. Let us therefore bear this night with the hope that surely the morning is en route.”
