The Delta State has been given a seven day ultimatum by Ex-Niger Delta fighters to release one Michael Johnny and others who were remanded in Warri prison by a Delta State High Court, or they be prepared to face chaos in the area.
The Ex-Niger Delta fighters from Okerenkoko community, in Gbaramatu Kingdom, Warri South-West Local Government Council of Delta State gave this warning yesterday and also threatened to use “all means” to secure their release and cause chaos in the water ways if the Police and judiciary in Delta State failed to release them from prison custody
Apparently Michael Johnny and nine others were remanded in prison custody by the Delta State High Court over alleged threat to the life of ex-militant leader, Government Ekpemupolo, alias Tompolo.
There was also protest from Women from Okerenkoko community last week calling for their release.
Mr. Johnson Ebierede, however in a statement made in Benin City, they expressed worry that “the way our brothers were arrested by the police and their subsequent remand in prison by the court is suspicious.”
