The Rivers State Commissioner for Police, Joseph Mukan has called on the State Governor, Nyesom Wike to handover former Managing Director of the Niger Delta Development Commission, Joy Nunieh, to him.
Wike had raced to Nunieh’s residence along with some of his security details on Thursday to rescue her from security operatives wh her residence.
The governor claimed that the Policemen had no arrest warrant.
But briefing newsmen at his office in Port Harcourt Friday, Mukan called on the governor to handover Nunieh to him, noting that the latter was under investigation.
He further said that the policemen from the Inspector General of Police Monitoring Unit were endorsed by the Rivers State Police Command before proceeding to the residence of the ex-NDDC boss.
The Command further said the exercise was legitimate and in tandem with the law, decrying the action of the governor as unfortunate.
He said the governor can protect his citizens, but everything should be done within the confines of the law.
