The Rivers Police Command has denied allegations that its personnel shot and wounded Sen. Magnus Abe while trying to stop a political rally from holding in Port Harcourt today.
Its spokesman, Ahmad Muhammad, told the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) in Port Harcourt that the police did not dispense any bullet while dispersing a rally by Save Rivers Movement on Sunday.
He said the group was at the state College of Arts and Science for the rally when they were dispersed because they did not obtain a police permit.
"I can confirm to you that Sen. Magnus Abe was not shot. The police did not expend any single bullet while dispersing the crowd. It is not true. The police didn't shoot the senator, we only used minimum force to disperse the crowd at the venue of the rally,’’ he said.
