An investigative panel headed by the Deputy Inspector-General of Police in-charge of Operations, Philemon Leha, has questioned the Rivers State governor, Rotimi Amaechi over the political impasse currently plaguing the state.
Reports say the governor was frank in making his position known to the investigative panel tabling his grievances before them.
According to a source, “The panel has interrogated a whole lot of people in Port Harcourt and even Amaechi has had an audience with the panel.
“The panel visited Amaechi and he spoke to them. They did that as part of their own investigation; he was asked some questions and he answered them, he met them in camera when the DIG (Leha) was in Port Harcourt.”
Investigations revealed that the panel decided to visit the governor in his office to ‘interview’ him on the crisis because Amaechi has constitutional immunity as an incumbent governor and the panel could not summon him like any citizen.
