Chidi Lloyd finally nailed by the Rivers State Police command

The Nation reports that the Police in Rivers State arrested yesterday House of Assembly Leader Chidi Lloyd over the death of Police Sergeant Urang Obadiah and a politician, Kingsley Ejeuo.

According to a statement by police spokesman Ahmad K. Mohammad, Lloyd was arrested on his way to the Air Force base where he was going to escape the arrest in Governor Rotimi Amaechi’s private jet.

Mohammad alleged that the House leader drove his bullet proof vehicle in a reckless manner to kill the two victims at the Emohua on the East-West road on December 30, last year.

He said the police initially thought it was an accident until further investigations proved otherwise.

Lloyd’s lawyer Emenike Ebete could not be reached last night for his reaction.
