Africa Press-Nigeria:<\/p>\n

The Rivers State Police Command has rubbished reports that the armed operatives who attempted to arrest the former Managing Director of NDDC, Joi Nunieh were not sanctioned by the Inspector General of Police and the Commissioner of Police in Rivers State.<\/p>\n

The Rivers State Governor, Nyesom Wike had shortly after rescuing Nunieh claimed in an interview that the officers could not show a warrant for her arrest neither was the police hierarchy aware of their presence.<\/p>\n

But the Rivers Police Command in a statement released by SP Nnamdi Omoni, the Public Relations Officer, said the operatives were on legitimate duty.<\/p>\n

Omoni confirmed that the personnel at Nunieh\u2019s residence were from the IGP Monitoring Team in Abuja and were in Port Harcourt on official assignment.<\/p>\n

The statement added that before the officers proceeded to her residence, they observed due protocols and requisite standard operating procedures, including going through the processes of arriving themselves at the Headquarters with their Investigation Activities duly signed and approved by the Commissioner of Police, CP Joseph Mukan.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe attention of the Rivers State Police Command has been drawn to an Online Publication, credited to Vanguardngr.com, where it was erroneously reported that \u2018the MOPOL presence at the residence of Joi Nunieh was not the directive of the Command\u2019.<\/p>\n

\n
<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\u201cOrdinarily, such a phantom report should have been ignored but due to the potential danger inherent in keeping silent, the Command is minded to react and state the true position as follows: That they went to her (Nunieh\u2019s) residence with Mobile Policemen, suggesting of course that they were there on official duty and not illegal duty as speculated.<\/p>\n
