Personnel of Bayelsa State Police Command have arrested Jonah Okah, a loyalist of the All Progressives Congress (APC) Governorship Candidate, Timipre Sylva.
Mr. Doifie Buokoribo, Media Aide to Sylva, who confirmed the arrest, said he got a SMS from Okah.
“I have just been picked up by the police from the office of the Commissioner of Police from Bayelsa State Command on the order suspected to be from the Bayelsa State Government. I’m being taken to SCID led by one SP Ani,” the SMS reads.
In a post on his Facebook page on Wednesday, Buokoribo, said Okah’s arrest appears to be in connection to his recent post on Facebook.
“Loyalist of the APC Governorship Candidate, Chief Timipre Sylva, has just been arrested by the police in Bayelsa State.
“His arrest is feared to be in connection with his recent posts on Facebook, criticizing the Governor of Bayelsa State, Hon. Henry Seriake Dickson,” Buokoribo posted on his Facebook page.
