Military brutality: Wike meets US, UK diplomats



Rivers State Governor,  Nyesom Ezenwo Wike on Friday met with the United States Consul-General to Nigeria,  John Bray and the Political Officer of the British High Commission in Nigeria, Louis Edwards.

The joint meeting which lasted about one hour, had the PDP National Chairman,  Prince Uche Secondus, Deputy Governor Ipalibo Harry Banigo,   Rivers State PDP Chairman,  Bro Felix Obuah and Senator Lee Maeba in attendance.

The International Diplomats visited Governor Wike on the heels of mass arrests of PDP leaders by security agencies. The Rivers State Government  and the PDP  have issued several statements alerting the world on the illegal activities of security agencies ahead of the elections.

Governor Wike tabled the concerns of the government and people of Rivers State before the American Embassy and the British High Commission.

At the end of the meeting, the International Diplomats declined comments as they left to continue with the 2019 Governorship and State Assembly elections in Rivers State.
