How security agencies tried to assassinate me – Wike

Governor of Rivers State, Nyesom Wike, has claimed that the six police officers that were dismissed from the Force were relieved of their duty because they stopped security agencies from assassinating him.

Wike stated this when he received the Aluu council of chiefs on Tuesday at the Government House in Port Harcourt.


“The policemen were dismissed because they did not allow the security agencies to assassinate me as was planned,” he said.

“The security agencies planned to assassinate me, but those attached to me resisted the plot and refused to allow them kill me. That is why they are angry and desperate.

“The actions of security agencies during the December 10 re-run election have alerted us on how they plan to rig the 2019 elections. We are now prepared for them.”

The Police High Command announced the dismissal of one Inspector and five Sergeants from the Force, for their alleged unethical conduct during the December 10 rerun legislative election in Rivers state.


The State Government has since condemned the sack of the operatives and accused the police of doing the bidding of the APC.
