President Tinubu has given the police a fresh order amid Rivers’s political crisis.

 

NewsOnline Nigeria reports that President Bola Tinubu has ordered the Nigeria Police Force to protect local government secretariats in Rivers State against incursion by arsonists and vandals.

 

This Nigeria news platform understands that Presidential spokesman Bayo Onanuga made this known in a statement on Monday after rampaging hoodlums aggrieved with the outcome of Saturday LG poll burnt down some council secretariats in the oil-rich state.

“In response to recent tensions following last Saturday’s local government council election, the President expressed deep concern over reports of arson and explosions in the state,” Onanuga said.

The President urged all political actors to de-escalate the situation and discourage their supporters from engaging in violence or destructive actions.

 

“President Tinubu directed the police to restore and maintain peace, law, and order immediately.

“While instructing law enforcement agencies to bring the situation under control, he emphasised the need to ensure the security of public institutions.

 

“President Tinubu said government facilities built with public funds must be safeguarded from vandalism.”

 

The President stressed that self-help has no place in a democratic system, especially after 25 years of continuous democracy.

 

According to President Tinubu, the judiciary can settle all political disputes, and the outcome of this election should be no exception.
