Delta Police Command Restrict Vehicular Movement From 12mid Night by mastasam(m): 11:06am On Nov 17, 2017 |
The Delta Command of the Nigeria
Police has ordered the restriction of
vehicular movement between Delta and
Anambra through the Niger Bridge, with
effect from 12 mid-night on Friday.
The Commissioner of Police in the state,
Mr Zanna Ibrahim, gave the order in a
statement Friday in Asaba, signed by
Dsp.Andrew Aniamaka, the Command’s
public relations officer.
The commissioner said the order was
aimed at forestalling any breach of
security ahead of the Saturday
governorship election in Anambra.
“Against the backdrop of the
forthcoming gubernatorial election in
Anambra slated for Saturday, Nov.18,
the Commissioner of Police, Delta
Command,Mr Zanna Ibrahim has
ordered the restriction of vehicular
movement.
“The order restricts movement through
the Niger Bridge linking Asaba to
Onitsha with effect from 12 mid-night,
Friday, Nov.17, 2017 till after the
election,” the police boss said.
He also said that the ordered was borne
out of the need to prevent any security
breach around the Niger bridge linking
Delta to Anambra during the election.
Ibrahim, however, said only those on
official and emergency duties with
genuine means of identification would
be allowed passage during the period of
the restriction.
“While regretting the inconveniences the
restriction will cause commuters,
especially those travelling to the South-
East and South-South States, the
commissioner of police enjoins them to
take alternative routes.
“Commuters can also make do with
other contingency plans as the
restriction order is in the overall interest
of public’s well being and safety.”
