The Police Command in Anambra on
Sunday unsealed the state secretariat of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP)
after a commitment by the two factions that they would be lawful in their
conduct.
The Police Public Relations
Officer (PPRO), Mr Haruna Mohammed, made this known in a statement made
available to the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) on Sunday in Awka.
Recall that the
PDP Secretariat was sealed on Wednesday following a violent that erupted between
two factions of the party.
The secretariat, located at Udoka
Housing Estate in Awka was locked up on Umar’s orders, who also deployed armed
policemen to man the office pending the return of peace.
Mohammed stated that the
commitment by the two factions was reached during a meeting with the state
Police Commissioner, Garba Umar.
He stated that members of the
factions had been advised to be peaceful, as anybody who ignite trouble would
be dealt with in line with the law.
Mohammed explained that after a
meeting between the police and the PDP officials on Saturday, Umar directed
that the office be unsealed.
The PPRO disclosed that a police
team led by a Deputy Superintendent of Police, Mr A. A. John, unlocked the
office at about 1.20 p.m. and subsequently withdrew all police personnel
deployed, to ensure peace at the secretariat.
