Alkali: We Have Set Up A Team To Investigate Atiku Convoy Attack In Borno

Against the backdrop of recent attacks in rallies of political parties by suspected hoodlums, the most recent of which was the convoy of the PDP presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar in Borno, the Inspector General of Police, Usman Alkali Baba has disclosed that a team is being set up to thoroughly investigate the matter.

At the 57th ministerial briefing today, IGP Alkali-Baba explained that assessment from the state PRO might have been too hasty and not conclusive, hence the need to establish a team to make holistic assessment from the various narratives to ascertain the true picture and prevent a reoccurrence.

He asserted that campaigns and rallies are being policed and optimal protection given, particularly when prompt information is provided about such political events.
