Wike "I'm afraid I could be arrested," says Gov


The Governor of Rivers State, Nyesom Wike, has expressed his fear of being arrested by security heads in the state.

According to a report by Sun Newspaper, the governor said this on Friday, November 11, 2016 at a judiciary event in Port Harcourt, Rivers State.

Wike said: “I was afraid to come out for this programme when I heard that all the security heads in this state came for the programme.
“So, I told my orderly to pack some of my things into a bag that I may not return because they may arrest me from there.
“My orderly asked, but you have immunity, I told him that there couldn’t be immunity in Nigeria when people are arrested anyhow. We don’t respect the rule of law. Anybody can be arrested at anytime”, the governor stated.
The governor had faulted the activities of security agencies, DSS, EFCC and SSS,saying they carry out their activities in illegal ways.
