Commissioner of Police in Delta State Command, Mohammed Ali Ari, has warned that on no account should anybody be seen carrying or hoisting Biafran flag in whatever guise in the state.
Acting police image-maker in the state, DSP Bright Edafe, who spoke on Sunday, May 30, 2021, said that the command had noted the proscribed Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) and their intention of parading themselves in some parts of the state.
Determined to maintain peace in the state, the Commissioner of Police urged officers and men of the command to be on red alert, watchful, and deal decisively with the trouble shooters.
The PPRO said: “The command is more than ever willing and determined to go after any miscreant who might be found wanting. The CP is urging members of the public to partner with the police to see that those who try to bring disunity in the state and our dear nation are arrested and brought to book.
“Undercover police detectives have been deployed across the state for the purpose of arresting anyone caught carrying Biafran flag, and to ensure that they are dealt with in accordance with the law of the land.”
Edafe stated further that the command would not take it lightly with anyone against peace and stability in the state.
