President Muhammadu Buhari has directed the reinstatement of the security aides of Governor Willie Obiano of Anambra State.
While welcoming the president on arrival on
Wednesday in Awka for the Grand Finale of the All Progressives Congress
governorship rally, the governor had complained about the withdrawal of his
security aides.
The aides were withdrawn Tuesday allegedly on
the orders of the Inspector General of Police, Ibrahim Idris.
Before departing Awka, Wednesday, Mr. Buhari
directed the Deputy Inspector General of Police (Operations), Joshak Habila, to
ensure the return of the governor’s security personnel.
It was reported how the Senate earlier
on Wednesday also condemned the withdrawal of the governor’s security details
and called for their return.
Mr. Obiano is seeking re-election on the
platform of the All Progressives Grand Alliance, APGA. He is being challenged
in Saturday’s governorship election by 36 other candidates including Tony Nwoye
of Nigeria’s ruling All Progressives Congress, APC.
