norrisman: Do Governors really have the power to arrest/apprehend. Do you ever wonder why we never hear of stories of MPs in the UK or Governors in the US arresting people? Because they have no such power. The governor is not different from me ad you and has absolutely no power to arrest/apprehend anyone. I think you were in a haste to make this brash statement. All people like u do is complain and whine. If he were there and saw this wrong but did nothing, u'll be the first to complain. Now he is acting, u still complain. My Priest once preached that "if u see something, do something!". Obi did the right thing by averting danger. Who knows what that apprehended truck if allowed to continue might slam into. Please grow up with ur complaints, alright. |

I think we should not encourage this, otherwise the governor will continue to apprehend drivers and wheel barrow pushers while leaving is real job undone. There must be someone appointed to enforce traffic rules in the state, that person should be allowed to do his job. |

What stops a governor with power of arrest from arresting members of the opposition, newspaper editors, debtors e.t.c? The Nigerian constitution gives no governor or even the president the power to arrest or order the arrest of anyone. He can simply report any suspected illegal activity to the empowered authorities to investigate just like you and I can. In this story, the suspected offender was arrested by the police and not Obi. |

Many of our state Governors will do well as a road safety wardens; Obi, Fashola, and that Okoro guy in Imo to mention few. |
