Police: Former President Jonathan was not attacked

Bayelsa State Police Command Police Public Relations Officer, Asinim Butswat, has debunked reports that former President Jonathan was attacked in the state.

''There was no attack on the former President,'' Butswat said. '' The youths mistook his convoy for a governorship candidate engaging in campaigns. But when they discovered on getting to the entrance of his house in Yenagoa that it was that of the President, they ran away. Security operatives however ran after them and arrested some of them. They did not haul stones at the President’s convoy. They did not attack the convoy and no weapon was found on them.''
