Police dim Gov Fubara’s hopes, say it won’t provide security for Rivers LG elections

The Rivers State Police Command has announced its decision to enforce court orders regarding the local government elections scheduled for October 5, 2024 in the state.

This development comes after the Command received a restraining order preventing them from providing security during the elections, as confirmed by SP Grace Iringe-Koko, the Command’s spokesperson, on Friday.

This is against the backdrop of the insistence of the state governor, Siminalayi Fubara who had stated that the elections will hold, even if his party, the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) would not take part.
