Inspector General of Police has cleared the way for northern governors
on a solidarity visit to Rivers to leave the airport.
The visitors were holed up in the VIP lounge of the airport due to a
sponsored protest by forces loyal to Nigeria's president Goodluck
Jonathan and his wife outside the airport.
Rivers state officials told SaharaReporters said they were already
planning to use helicopters to bring the governor and his solidarity
visitors to the government house but later changed the plan after they
received assurances from the police IGP that more policemen had been
deployed to protect lives and property.
Mr. Amaechi and the visiting governors traveled in the same car with
their respective police details massed around the special car to drive
safely out of the airport to the government house.
