Quit notice on Igbos: Police deploy officers to arrest youth leaders

The Police on Wednesday confirmed that it has deployed officers to arrest youths, who gave Igbos living in the North a three-month ultimatum to leave.

Kaduna State Police spokesman, Aliyu Usman, disclosed that its operatives had been directed to arrest the youths, by Governor Nasir El-Rufai.

“We have already deployed our men to arrest the members of the groups that issued the ultimatum; we are working to apprehend them as part of our investigation into the declaration,” he stated.

The Force Public Relations Officer, Jimoh Moshood, added that the Inspector-General of Police, Ibrahim Idris, had also directed command Commissioners of Police and Assistant IGPs in charge of zonal formations to ensure enforcement of the law in their jurisdictions.

Moshood said: “Before now, we had beefed up security across the country, and we are increasing deployment and patrol across major cities to ensure law and order not only in the North, but in every part of the country, we are improving on that.
“The IG has directed all commissioners of police and AIGs in charge of zones to ensure absolute enforcement of law and order and protection of lives and property.”
