Northern Governors On Solidarity Visit To Amaechi Safely Driven To Government House

Northern Governors On Solidarity Visit To Amaechi Safely Driven To Government House

Governor Sule Lamido and Rabiu Kwankwaso arriving Port Harcourt earlier today

An instruction to the Rivers State commissioner of police from the Inspector General of Police has cleared the way for northern governors on a solidarity visit to Rivers to leave the airport.
The visitors were holed up in the VIP lounge of the airport due to a sponsored protest by forces loyal to Nigeria's president Goodluck Jonathan and his wife outside the airport.
Rivers state officials told SaharaReporters said they were already planning to use helicopters to bring the governor and his solidarity visitors to the government house but later changed the plan after they received assurances from the police IGP that more policemen had been deployed to protect lives and property.
Mr. Amaechi and the visiting governors traveled in the same car with their respective police details massed around the special car to drive safely out of the airport to the government house.
