The Rivers State Police Command has declared the Aid de Camp to Rivers State Governor Chibuike Amaechi, ASP Seimeikumo Debewari, “a deserter”. A statement signed by Assistant Commissioner of Police in charge of administration, Augustine Sanomi said, “The Rivers State Police Com-mand wishes to inform the general public that AP/No. 100659, acting ASP Seimeikumo Debewari, who has ignored all lawful directives to see the commissioner of police and the Inspector General of Police, has not been seen either at the Rivers State Command or at the Police headquarters since July 10, 2013.’’ The statement stated that the whereabouts of the governor’s ADC is unknown to the Nigerian police force and as such, ceases to be ADC to Rivers State governor’. “As the commissioner of Police, Rivers State Command, and by the powers conferred on me by Section 398 (1) of the Police Act and Regulation Cap 359, Law of the Federation of Nigeria 1990, the officer is hereby declared a deserter from the Nigeria Police Force subject to the approval of the Inspector General of Police,’’ the statement added. Responding, Rivers State infor-mation commissioner, Mrs Ibim Semenitari said the police are being mischievous because according to her, they are aware of the fact that the ADC sustained injuries during the fracas at the National Assembly and that he was flown abroad, where he is still receiving treatment. The governor’s ADC was implicated in the July 9, Rivers State House of Assembly crisis, where there was free for all fight. Daily Trust gathered that while the House Leader Chidi Lloyd honoured the invitation by the police authorities, the ADC did not.
