The Rivers State Police Command says it will not allow the Local Government Election scheduled for Saturday to hold.
The command’s spokesperson, SP Grace Iringe-Koko, said this in a statement titled ‘Proposed October 5th, 2024 Local Government Chairman Election’.
The police, in the statement, confirmed being in receipt of a restraining order preventing them from providing security during the LGA elections.
The command also said it was aware of the 30th September 2024 Court judgement from the Federal High Court Abuja which barred the Force from participating in the election.
The statement added that the Force Legal Department has advised that the ruling on the 30th of September takes precedence.
It also referenced the protest march by the opposition PDP during which they called for an adherence to the court orders.
