The Delta State Police Command has declared ex Minister, Olorogun Kenneth Gbagi wanted, for promising and failing to honour an earlier invitation at the State’s police headquarters, Asaba.
This is contained in a statement issued by the force Public Relations Officer, DSP Onome Onovwapkoyeya and was made available to newsmen.
Gbagi was invited by the Commissioner of Police through the Area Commander Warri and DPO Ebrumede Division on September 25th, 2020 for questioning for alleged dehumanizing manner.
Recall that goldennationblog.com had reported that the ex-Minister had ordered some staff at his Signatious Hotel, Warri, to be stripped naked and physically assaulted for an alleged stealing.
The statement reads:
“Kenneth Gbagi personally and severally called and gave the excuse that he has a burial ceremony of his elder sister on Friday 25/9/2020 in which he is a key player, and asked for time to finish with the ceremony on Sunday, thereafter will report at the State Headquarters on Monday September 28, 2020. These requests were granted on humanitarian ground.
“On Monday September, 28th 2020, 3:00 pm, Gbagi called the Commissioner of Police to say that he has a court case to attend to, promising to 5:00 pm at the Police Headquarters in Asaba by 3:00pm; again he was equally obliged. On the same date, the Commissioner of Police had to call him at about 5:00pm before the same Kenneth Gbagi said he was on, his way to the State HQ Asaba. Sadly and unfortunately Kenneth Gbagi still failed to report instead he went into the public space to disparage, blackmail and maligned the person of the Commissioner of Police and the Nigeria Police Force, Delta State Command for insisting on investigating him.
“Having failed to honour his promises, Delta State Police Command is left with no option than to declare Olorogun Kenneth Gbagi wanted.
‘Therefore members of the public with useful information as to his whereabouts are advised to go to the nearest Police Station to report for his immediate arrest and handing him over to the Command for thorough investigation/prosecution.
