The Police command in Delta State today stopped Prophet Jones Erue, a factional Chairman of the All Progressive Congress, APC, in Delta from accessing the state party Secretariat for the planned inauguration of its factional state executive committee.
When our reporter visited the party’s state Secretariat at Nnebisi road Asaba, fierce looking men of the Nigeria police force has sealed off the place preventing anybody from gaining access to the building.
Our reporter gathered that the police boss acted based on earlier letter of introduction from the then party’s National Chairman, Chief John Oyegun introducing Chief Cyril Ogodo to the police as the Delta state party Chairman.
Recall that the Erue faction on Thursday issued a “notice of inauguration of Delta state APC executive committee for Friday,” today, but they were however denied access to the party Secretariat by the police in order to avoid the break down of law and order.

We further gathered that the state Commissioner of Police has invited both camp for a meeting in order to set the records right.
