Kogi State Commissioner for Information, Kingsley Fanwo has said the Nigerian police will determine whether Senator Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan should be arrested or not for “violating” Governor Usman Ododo’s instruction banning processions in the North Central state.

Fanwo made the submission on Channels Television’s Politics Today programme on Tuesday.

“There was a directive from the state governor and the security agencies were told to execute the directive,” Fanwo said.

He added: “If someone has violated it, the security agencies do not need the governor again to give them another directive; they know what to do.

“Only the security agencies will be able to answer that (whether to arrest the senator or not); they know how they go about their operations. I am not a police offier but I am very sure that she should be asked a lot of questions about her incitements.”
