I think you should go back to US or UK to stay.
Why wount Gov arest someone, are they not human. Why are u asking GEJ to perform?

Its called citizens arrest people. The gov is a citizen, he sees some1 breaking the law as a citizen he is obligated to apprehend d person n hand them to the police. Good job gov.

Re: Governor Obi Apprehends Tanker Driver Over Traffic Offence by Engineer96(m): 4:24am On Jan 09, 2013
Onitsha drivers are too uncultured.
Worst amongst them are coaster drivers. They don't care. They drive anyhow, negotiate a u-turn anywhere.
It is a general madnes and this has to stop.
The tanker driver was just unlucky. I wish it was a coaster driver so that it can send a message to others.

It's called "citizen's arrest".

only in nigeria we defend such....Obi has bigger things to do to make Anambra GREAT other than arresting a tanker driver....Biko ko hapu that one for the aboki policeman.....

then i guess a citizen should go to awka and make some budgetary allocations to himself (it is called citizen's allocation)...mtscheeew

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.
... Concurrently, if governors are now the one arresting people for various offenses what is then the work of the security agencies employed to do these works? That also means at the absence of the governor, things will fall apart.

360degree: I think gov are said to be chief security officer of their respective state. By this they are seem to part of enforcement agencies n they can maintain law n order directly or indirectly. In fact I would want to believe that the duty of maintaining law n order is
not only on security agencies but also that of citizenry indirectly.

Methinks a civilian has the right to arrest/apprehend an offender and then hand over to an enforcement officer/agent. u can ask ur lawyer or any well informed police officer around u today.

The governor may not have the powers to arrest But they move around with enough Police escorts to make some Police stations look like checkpoints.. So I guess the police attaches will make the arrests on the orders of the governor..

Is there a traffic law in the state that criminalize such driving?

If no, his action is ultra vires and he can be sued.
