Force PRO Denies Issuing Arrest Warrant
The Nigeria Police Force (NPF) has denied issuing an arrest warrant for Managing Director (MD) of BUA’s Obu Cement Company, Engineer Yusuf Binji. Force Police Public Relations Officer (PPRO), Jimoh Moshood, denied the report stating unequivocally that there had been no such directive from the police at the State or Federal command.
In an exclusive chat with the Force Police Public Relations Officer (PPRO), Jimoh Moshood, denied the state government’s claims, stating that there had been no such directive from the police either at the State or Federal command.
Moshood said Engr. Binji has not been declared a person of interest by the police, in respect of the alleged attack on Governor Obaseki’s convoy.
This contradicts claims by the Edo State government; soon after an alleged attacked on the convoy of Governor Godwin Obaseki on Thursday, the government issued a press statement claiming that the police has ordered the arrest of Engr. Binji for complicity in the attack.
Police rebuttal of the government’s claims however, absolves Binji of complicity in the alleged attack.
