The Inspector-General of Police, Usman Alkali Baba, has charged officers of the Delta State Police Command to arrest and deal with members of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB).
He gave the order while addressing officers of the command during a one-day working visit on Monday.
He said: “It is expected that whatever affects Anambra State may likely affect, especially Asaba. It is just the bridge that is separating the towns.
“There are always spill-overs of agitations and demonstrations from Onitsha to Asaba.
“That is why you need to get prepared to deal with any crime or criminality to ensure that those trouble makers are brought to book.
“You (officers) need to brace up to the IPOB challenge because it is a proscribed organisation and treat them as such.”
