Early this morning, governor Nyesom Wike and his entourage mobilised to stop alleged attempt by men of the Department of State Security, DSS and the Police to abduct a Judge at his number 35/84 B residence, Forces Avenue, Port Harcourt. According to reports, the governor was allegedly manhandled by men of the DSS and the Police who came to whisk the judge away.

Read the press statement which has been released to that effect.

The illegal siege on Rivers State by Federal security agencies continued unabated during the early hours of Saturday as hundreds of Department of State Services (DSS) operatives and policemen attempted to illegally abduct a Federal High Court judge residing at Number 35 Forces Avenue in Port Harcourt

The illegal failed abduction was led by Mr Tosin Ajayi, Rivers State Director of the Department of State Services (DSS) and Rivers State Police Commissioner, Mr Francis Odesanya.

The operatives of DSS reportedly rough-handled Governor Wike, pushing him around and injuring his hand. A few of the operatives cocked their rifles and threatened to shoot the Governor.

They were irked by Governor Wike's arrival at the scene shortly after the failed abduction process began. It was learnt that Governor Wike received security information on the illegal moves, minutes after the operation started.

The security operatives blocked the entrance of the residence of the Federal High Court judge at about 1am on saturday morning, claiming that they were acting on orders from above. As they dragged Governor Wike, they insisted that they must be allowed to leave with the judge.

However, the commotion attracted passers by and journalists who thronged the vicinity to know why hundreds of security agents in several Patrol vans had been mobilised.

Upon the arrival of the national media, the Rivers State Director of the DSS, Mr Tosin Ajayi jumped into his vehicle and fled the scene.

However, addressng journalists, Rivers State Police Commissioner, Francis Odesanya said the two security agencies were at the scene because they received privileged information.

Odesanya claimed he was at the scene as a peace maker. He declined comments on why the Police joined the DSS to abduct a serving Federal High Court judge.

In an interview with journalists at the scene of the failed illegal abduction of a Federal High Court judge by the Police and DSS, Governor Wike said it will not be under his watch that security agencies wiĺl be allowed to entrench needless impunity.

He declared that their reckless action portends danger to the nation's democracy, noting that he is convinced that President Buhari is not aware of the level of impunity being perpetrated by Federal Securiy agencies.

Governor Wike stated that whatever the situation, the rule of law must prevail in a democratic setting.

He said if the security agencies had a lawful directive to implement, they must follow due process .

According to him: "Not under my watch wiĺl I allow this kind of impunity to take place. That is why we are here. I don't know which judge they were detailed to abduct. I didn't bother myself to know which judge. All I am interested in is that, at this level, it is not allowed.

"He is not a criminal and he is not an armed robber. If the person has committed an offence, invite him. It is only when he refuses to honour the invitation that you can adopt this commando style.

"The Commissioner of Police is here, the Director of DSS is here. Their operatives cocked their guns and threatened to shoot me. I have never seen that before. Again , this is to tell you what we are facing . We know that more will come. For us in this state, we shall continue to resist it."

Governor Wike added: "It doesn't matter what it will cost. When you talk about liberty, sacrifices must be made. We are not trying to stop an arrest. All we are saying is that things must be done decently and in line with the rule of law.

"Rivers State is under siege. For you to see a governor out at this time of the day, something is wrong. A siege is an understatement. If this type of thing happens next time, the people wiĺl resist it to the last".

The governor stressed: "They are trying to do something funny in this state, probably to declare a state of emergency.

#IStandWithSamDaddy 2019

what is happening in this country sef

Buhari wake up from ur sleep and end this nnsense

If nature doesn't change buhari before 2019 then I wonder what will, because I do not see this type of evil government conducting free and fair election.

Buhari, APC and his Daura Secret Service really don't understand what democracy is. They are in power yet don't know how to use it for positive things they are only interested in witch haunting and causing unrest.
They should stay away from Niger Delta and the East. They will be 100% resisted if need be, no intimidation is allowed like they did in Benin.

No comments , listening to look and laugh - Fela

Night of Commando style.

But why? Anyways;




Nobody should mention Amechi name here oh

Politics of do or die...

whAT Rubbish is this.. Buhari wants to completely destroy this nation. Thank God Wike is equal to the task, they have not seen anything.. This demonic party called APC should leave Rivers State alone. They can never take Rivers State even if they deploy all Nigerian security agencies to the state. The people are olidly behind wike.

BTW why are the head of security agencies in Rivers State all from the SW? I'm sure Wike is not afraid of Afonjas

That was very brave and thoughtful of him. This Government and oppression, they're yet to tell us why they went to kidnap a judge by 1am

You get muscle pull? Why you dey send wike, you for come there nah

Nigeria at 56 remains one of the most backward of African countries. No security, no power, no potable drinking water, no infrastructure and no visionary leaders.

Only corruption and impunity.

So DSS self dey kidnap? Who is safe in this country? Having a president that doesn't not respect the rule of law especially went it is not in his favour shows we are in grave danger in this country.... The signs are here, this should be condemned, it could be you tomorrow. Unrepentant dictator

This is definitely not a true democratic govt. The tyranny going on here is like that of North Korea

This buhari has turned the rule of Law upside down.
