Amaechi vows to fight against Every form of Police Brutality on April 11
Governor Rotimi Amaechi of of Rivers State has urged the people of the state to come out en masse and vote on April 11, saying that the government will ensure that the police molestation and brutality which occurred in the state on March 28 during the Presidential and National Assembly polls will no longer occur.
The governor was speaking at an interactive session with APC supporters during his campaign for Dr. Dakuku Peterside, the gubernatorial candidate of the All Progressives Congress, in Emohua and Ikwerre Local Government Areas.
He said: “Next week Saturday, I expect everybody to come out and vote. There will be no police molestation again. There will be no army harassment again. Any police that molests you must be preparing to retire and this time, it will not be retirement, it will be punishment for retirement, so come out to vote. We are looking for you to come out to vote.
“The reason why I am running from ward to ward is to encourage you to come out because after what the police and the army did this last time, everybody will be afraid to come out. Saturday, we should all come out to vote and as your governor, I urge you to vote for APC”.
