Koko insisted that no gunshot was fired by any
police officer during the event. The statement reads
“No police officer from Rivers State Police Command fired any
gunshot that day. Normally if they have such an event, they are supposed to
write an application to the Commissioner of Police.
“Then the Commissioner of Police
will direct the Area Commander covering that Degema axis, while the Degema Area
Commander will also assign it to the Divisional Police Officer over there at
Buguma that will cover that event.
“But there
was no application of such. The DPO did not have any knowledge of it. Perhaps
the DPO might know they have an event and say maybe his men should just stroll
around on patrol. But there was no application of such to cover that
event."
