The Majority Leader of the Rivers State
House of Assembly, Chidi Lloyd, on Tuesday showed up at the Force
Headquarters in Abuja, exactly seven days after he was invited by the
police over the free-for-all by some members of the assembly.
But the Aide-De-Camp to Governor
Rotimi Amaechi, Debeware Semeikumo, and the Chief Security Officer,
Tony Iwelu, shunned a similar invitation to them.
Lloyd, Semeikumo and Iwelu were
invited on July 16 to explain their roles in the July 8
free-for-all in which some lawmakers were injured.
The Majority leader, who had earlier
been declared wanted by the Rivers State Police Command in connection
with the fracas, arrived at the Force Headquarters at 5. 45pm and
was immediately directed to the Force Criminal Investigation Department,
where he was asked to write his statement.
A top Police source, who confirmed the
lawmakers arrival, said it was unlikely that he would be released on
Tuesday as a team of investigators needed to interrogate him.
Lloyd, who was captured on video attacking another lawmaker,
Michael Chinda, with a mace, had claimed that he was receiving
treatment for an injury he sustained during the fracas at an
undisclosed hospital.
