With the recent raid on the home of respected elder statesman leader of PANDEF, Chief Edwin Kiagbo Clark by armed policemen purportedly with a search warrant for stashed arms, Nigerians have continued to condemn the action of the Nigerian Police Force. 

 

Prominent environmentalist and public commentator, Chief Sunny Onuesoke has berated the Nigerian Police Chief for the embarrassment caused by the police to our collective sensibilities.

The environmentalist, in a widely circulated statement, said, “It is a shame at these crush time of our nations building for a security agencies in Nigeria to raid the person of E. k. Clark, a man above eighty years old”.

“I am surprised that the Inspector General of Police could order or could tell the public that it was an “act of wrong information of informants at works”.

Onuesoke, while addressing the media, further observed; “Thank God the IGP was not ashamed to say that it was a wrong act of a wrong informants”.

Making this position known to the press at Asaba, the Delta state capital said that he was shocked beyond his wits, stating that, it's uncalled for the police to invade the house of an octogenarian like E K CLARK, with all the support he has given to the present administration in making sure there is peace in the Nigerian delta region.

“If I may ask, how many octogenarians have the police arrested in the north-east and northwest to comb the massive killing in that region and the North Central?

“It is a shame that the federal government can order an illegal invasion of the home of Chief Edwin Clark. I am calling on the federal government to immediately commence the trial of the arrested police officers and the informats who are responsible for this heinous act committed against a former Federal Minister, Senator of the Federal Republic of Nigeria”.

“Nigerians are demanding for the immediate commencement of the trial of the culprits involved in the illegal invasion to show as deterrent to other security officers and the police force, to take a cue from”, Onuesoke insisted.
