Rivers State governor, Nyesom Ezenwo Wike, has warned anyone who
intends to participate in the Omoyele Sowore-led ‘RevolutionNow’
protest to stay off the streets across the state.
Wike, in a statement issued in Port Harcourt on Sunday by his
media aide, Simeon Nwakaudu, said that Rivers State was not part of
the #RevolutionNow protest.
The governor said: “Rivers State does not subscribe to what the
#RevolutionNow protest represents and Rivers State is not part of
the protest”.
He directed security agencies in the state to arrest anybody
involved in the #RevolutionNow protest and also take all necessary
steps to prosecute such persons immediately.
Wike also urged parents to ensure that their children are not
misled by agents of Sowore to participate in the illegal
protest.
“All council chairmen are directed to be at alert. If they
suspect any illegal gathering, they should report to the security
agencies for immediate action,” he said.
