A Rivers State Chief Magistrate Court in Port Harcourt has
issued an arrest warrant against Nsima Ekere, governorship candidate of the All

S.D. Andrew-Jaja, the chief magistrate of the court, said
Ekere and one Katungo Moljengo should be arrested “in compliance with Section
138 of the Rivers State Administration of Criminal Justice Law 2015.”
The court's order, bearing the seal and signature of S.T.

The magistrate said the warrant for the arrest of Ekeme and
Moljengo was issued because of the listed complaints and a suit marked
