Benue State Police Command says it has arrested 46 suspects in connection with an incident in which Peter Obi’s convoy is allegedly attacked and blocked in the state. Police say the arrests follow investigations into the event, and that further inquiries are ongoing.
According to reports, police parade the suspects publicly and link them to youths allegedly involved in the confrontation. Commissioner of Police Cletus Nwadiogbu is cited as stating that key leaders among those involved are being identified as part of the probe. Other coverage also notes that Peter Obi seeks security action in relation to the incident, while Benue State authorities deny any involvement or complicity in what happened. The accounts largely align on the arrest figure and the police-led investigation, while they differ mainly in emphasis—some focus on the arrests, others on Obi’s response and the state government’s denial.
