JOINT PRESS STATEMENT BY NIGERIAN ARMY AND NIGERIAN POLICE ON ALLEGED CLASH IN IMO STATE.

The 34 Artillery Brigade Obinze and the Nigerian Police Imo State Command calls on the general public to disregard as false the report making the rounds on some online media platforms of a gun duel between the personnel of the Nigerian Army and the Nigerian Police in Owerri.

The malicious and falsely fabricated report is the handwork of criminals who intend to create confusion and give an impression of a lack of synergy amongst the security agencies in Imo State.

The law enforcement and security agencies in Imo State will continue to synergise and bring to book all criminals and halt their activities in the State. 

No stone will be left unturned in ensuring that law abiding citizens live in a conducive environment and carry out their daily routine without fear or intimidation by miscreants who have constituted themselves into nuisance and bent on causing instability in the state.

We therefore call on all law abiding citizens to ignore the illegal monday sit at home call by the proscribed and irredentist Indigenous People of Biafra IPOB and its affiliate criminal group Eastern Security Network ESN whose members have continuously used falsehood and threat on law abiding citizens.

 

All security agencies in the state will continue to discharge their Constitutional mandate and ensure lives and properties are well protected.


SIGNED:

CSP MICHAEL ABATTAM 

POLICE PUBLIC RELATIONS OFFICER

JOSEPH BABA AKUBO

ACTING ASSISTANT DIRECTOR ARMY PUBLIC RELATIONS
