The Nigerian Police Force has ordered the arrest of Blessing Agbomere, a popular thug of the All Progressives Congress (APC), over a viral video showing him dressed in a police uniform and making threats against the Edo State government.

The arrest comes amidst concerns about the credibility of the upcoming Edo gubernatorial poll, scheduled for September 21. The police had earlier disowned a supernumerary police officer (SPY), who made political comments about the election, but this latest incident raises further questions about the role of security agencies in the poll.

The opposition APC has been accused of using thugs to induce fear in the minds of Edo citizens, and this latest incident has reinforced those fears.

The incident has sparked concerns about the potential for violence during the election, and the role of political thugs in disrupting the poll.

The PDP has called on the APC to condemn the actions of its thugs and to commit to a peaceful and credible election.

The police have assured that they will do everything in their power to prevent any disruptions to the poll and to ensure that the election is peaceful and credible. But with the opposition APC’s use of thugs raising concerns, it remains to be seen whether the police can deliver on that promise.
