An ADC member has raised concerns over an alleged incident involving party supporters and security personnel during political activities in Isiokpo, Rivers State.
The party member claimed that O’SPAC personnel and police officers were involved in the incident.
He alleged that some ADC members were harassed and assaulted.
According to him, some people sustained injuries during the confrontation.
He further claimed that phones and cash were taken from some of the party members.
Three Persons Reportedly Arrested
The ADC member said three people were arrested during the incident.
They were identified as Isaiah Thomas, Confidence Amadi and Chikezie Justice.
He alleged that the Area Commander later described the arrested individuals as cultists.
The ADC member disputed the basis for their continued detention and called for their immediate release.
He further alleged that their release was being withheld following purported instructions from the Ikwerre LGA Chairman.
These claims have not been independently verified.
ADC Seeks Commissioner of Police’s Intervention
The party member has appealed directly to the Commissioner of Police in Rivers State.
He wants the police leadership to investigate what he described as harassment, assault and intimidation of ADC members.
He also urged authorities to establish the circumstances surrounding the arrests and alleged seizure of personal belongings.
The allegations come as political activities increase across Rivers State.
For now, the claims remain unverified. A response from the police, O’SPAC and the Ikwerre Local Government authorities would provide their perspectives on the incident.
