Abuja-based group, Benue Professionals for Democracy (BPD) has challenged the Inspector General of Police, Mr Hafiz Ringim to prove that the murder of Benue State Action Congress of Nigeria (ACN) member, Mr Charles Ayede was by robbers not hired assassins as reported.<\/p>\n

A press release issued yesterday by the Benue professionals\u2019 chairman, Mr Michael Yange noted that by concluding that Ayede died in the hands of robbers, the Police suggests that investigations have been concluded and therefore such should be made public.<\/p>\n

The group expressed concern over the statement credited to the Force Public Relations Officer, Deputy Commissioner of Police Olusola Amore to the effect that the defeated ACN governorship candidate, Professor Stephen Ugbah \u201c…was detained for inciting disturbance. There was robbery somewhere, he turned the story to be that the governor was the one sending people to go and attack people. As a result of that, they started attacking some PDP stalwarts. So he was the one who incited the disturbance.\u201d<\/p>\n

The professionals sought clarifications on the purported breach of peace by ACN as claimed by the police. The press release read \u201c…the singular act of arresting and detaining Professor Ugbah is capable of breaching the peace as the voice of calm and restraint has now been gagged.\u201d<\/p>\n

While condemning the arrest and detention of the Benue State ACN candidate in the last month general election, the group said the arrest of Ugba by the police was at the behest of the governor and it amounts to \u201cexecutive recklessness\u201d.<\/p>\n
