Breaking: Police Invade Kano Goverment Lodge In Abuja, Hold 5 Governors Hostage by LMAyedun(m): 9:33pm On Nov 03, 2013
Saharareporters has learn that a detachment of police officers today invaded the Kano State Government Lodge in Abuja and are holding at least 5 factional PDP governors as well as others hostage.

The five trapped governors are members of the breakaway faction of the People's Democratic Party (PDP) who have rejected Bamanga Tukur as their party's national leader.

Several sources aware of the unfolding situation informed Saharareporters that the DPO of Asokoro police division led the invading police officers.

 One of our sources there was initial tension when the security details of the governors trued to deny entry to the DPO and his retinue of officers.

DPO of Asokoro Police division in orange polo shirt barges into G7 governors meeting with a retinue of officers. He is enraged after the governors dare him to do his worst. Seen here telling the governors to remain on their seats.
 
Saharareporters can confirm that the siege is over as the governors are dispersed.

If this is true, then some member of the executive is playing a very silly and dangerous game.

Intimidation never work against people.

Are you not aware that a court of competent jurisdiction has declared the nPDP an illegal 'PDP'. Therefore, their gathering is illegal and an invitation to anarchy.

Baboon and the Dog may happen sooner than predicted.

What does this do to National Dialogue?

What are they doing in kano gov's lodge? Why can't they be in their respective state?. It should be noted that since the court has declared their organization illegal, it is wrong for them to be holding any meeting under cover of an illegal nPDP.

Erm even if the "party" is declared illegal, how is them meeting illegal?

You do realize this is a violation of there right to association right? How is it illegal for a group of governors to meet?

mr man, the court only said the new party is illegal and not the meeting of the governors.
How are they sure of the agenda of the meeting, perhaps they can meet on another agenda.
Can't the governors meet again?

Their gathering is a security risk as it's likely to cause a breach of the public peace.

Freedom of association? So BH members should as well be allowed to hold their meeting openly abi?

I wish Capt. Nwaobosi was among the police officers holding the governors hostage. At least Kwankwaso would have been sure of 36 lashes of the cane just like Femi Fani-Kayode's father.

They have the right to association guaranteed by 1999 Constitution. This is a dangerous game. Jonathan is putting the lives of Ibos in the North at risk. When these Hausas in Kano hear what the police doing to their governors, they will go on killing rampage immediately. You can't fvck with Kwakwanso and go free. Lives of Ibos at risk tonight. Sacrificial lamb thing............

Hope u guys saw Kwakwanso's composure in the pics, sorry to say Gej is messing with the wrong guys. Who ever adviced hom to engage in harassment doesn't like him. Btw since when did it become illigal for tunde, Gambo and Musa to meet and discuss in any part of Nigeria let alone elected govs, Emperor Gej is finally showing his true colours!

Are they not illegal group? What do u think is the difference when they are apparently there to fashion out new ways of making the country ungovernable since they didn't succeed in floating a parallel PDP?. Must I think childishly like you?
