Police Takes Over APC Secretariat
Police operatives on Wednesday took over the All Progressives Congress National Secretariat in Abuja over a planned protest by aggrieved party members demanding the resignation of the Chairman of the party’s Caretaker Extraordinary Convention Planning Committee, Mai Mala Buni.
The heavily armed policemen reportedly arrived in four patrol vans and took over the entry and exit points on Blantyre Street where the APC National Secretariat is located.
A top official of the party however told journalists that the operatives were invited by chieftains of the party following security reports that some members were planning a protest against the party’s leadership over the recently conducted ward, local government, and state congresses across the country.
The National Secretary of the CECPC, John James, Akpanudoedehe, who spoke to journalists on the matter, said the deployment of police operatives on all roads leading to the APC national secretariat was nothing unusual.
He said the operatives were acting on security reports available to them.
