Ibrahim Lawal, media aide to detained Rivers Federal lawmaker, Farah Dagogo says the Rivers State Government was preparing murder charges against his principal.
Speaking to journalists on Sunday, Lawal alleged that the commandant to the Governor, Efeturi Irikefe, attempted to shoot Dagogo in the vehicle after his arrest at the South-South PDP secretariat in Port-Harcourt.
According to him, Farah was unlawfully taken away on the instruction of the governor over allegations he knows nothing about.
“We have it on good authority that the Camp Commandant to the Governor, Efeturi Irikefe, who led the supposed arrest, attempted to shoot Hon. Farah Dagogo inside the vehicle transporting him to their destination on that fateful day, April 28, 2022,” he said.
“It took restraint from others, who struggled with the Camp Commandant telling him ‘that was not the mission now’ before he calmed down. Whatever that statement means, we still do not know.
“Our earlier position stands, Hon. Farah Dagogo’s life is still in danger. Governor Nyesom Wike and his goons should be responsible for anything that happens to Dagogo,” he added.
