The Imo State chapter of the All Progressives Congress (APC) has said that the arrest of Prince Uche Nwosu, son in-law for a former Governor of Imo State, RIchas Okorocha, was in order.
This was contained in a statement by the APC Publicity Secretary, Mr. Cajetan Duke, and made available to newsmen, in Owerri, on Monday.
Duke described the law as ‘not being a respecter of any individual’, noting that refusal to honour genuine and lawful police invitation could warrant forceful arrest to bring an individual to book.

He added that APC in Imo State, led by Mr. MacDonald Ebere, would not condone “acrimonious rantings” that point to Governor Hope Uzodimma’s inability to manage the security situation in Imo.
He advised Nigerians, especially social media handlers, to desist from peddling rumours and unfounded allegations aimed at defaming the governor and the state government.
“The APC staunchly supports the governor and government of Imo State in their effort to restore sanity, peace, order and sustainable economic development in the state.

“As a party, we advise Nigerians to refrain from trite shenanigans and doomed efforts to link Governor Uzodimma with self-imposed and merited predicament.
“We commend the governor for his equanimity, mature and honourable disposition in the face of rash provocations and rascality from persons intentionally working against the overall interest and wellbeing of Imo people,” he said.
