In a statement released by DCP Frank Mba, force public relations officer, the force emphasized that the deployment is a proactive move by the force to maintain peace and ensure there is no breakdown of law and order at the complex.
Recall that Personnel of the Nigeria Police Force were deployed to the National Secretariat of the All Progressive Congress, located at Blantyre Crescent, Wuse II, Abuja.
The statement also stated that the presence of police personnel at the Secretariat is not to seal-up the Complex as has been reported in some quarters but rather to prevent any untoward situation within and around the APC National Secretariat.
It added that Members of the APC as well as staff of the Secretariat are therefore at liberty to conduct their legitimate businesses, in and around the Secretariat as always.
