The Nigeria Police Force has given the spokesperson of Kogi\u2019s Social Democratic Party, Farouk Adejoh, 24 hours to throw more light on his allegation that the Commissioner of Police, Bethrand Onuoha was responsible for recruiting thugs for a particular political party in the state.<\/p>\n
It was gathered that the mouthpiece of the State\u2019s Police Command, SP William Ovye Aya, in a statement on Thursday, described Adejoh\u2019s allegation as a direct insult to the integrity and authority of the Force.<\/p>\n
He directed Ajejoh to substantiate his allegation against the State Police Command and the Commissioner of Police or face the consequences of his action.<\/p>\n
He said: \u201cThe Police Command doesn\u2019t belong to any political party. Our responsibility is to protect lives and property, a mandate we have protected without fear or favour.<\/p>\n

The CP swiftly directed the deployment of officers and men to restore normalcy at the INEC Office.<\/p>\n
\u201cOur concern is the protection of the staff and property of the Electoral Commission as well as the safety of the citizens transacting businesses around the INEC Office.<\/p>\n
\u201cWith the support of other security agencies, calm was restored at the INEC State Headquarters.<\/p>\n
\u201cHow the operation that restored peace at the INEC Office has infuriated the Social Democratic Party is what we don\u2019t understand. The protesters who blocked the road and were burning tires to scare people were all wearing the fez caps of the Social Democratic Party.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
