Keku called on the Commander of NNS FORMOSO to take a cue from the leadership of the police by going public with the murder of the innocent security operative in the line of duty.
He said that only the right actions especially the pursuit of justice would suffice in the murder of the rating. Bayelsa State Chapter òf the Peoples Democratic Party has condemned in strong terms the murder of a naval personnel by rampaging thugs of the All Progressives Congress in Brass.
