He said: "I want to use this medium to say there is need for mutual respect between the Federal Government and State Governments. The defendants have been granted bail. That is the essence of what happened in Court."
Attorney-General of Rivers State, Professor Zaccheus Adangor said that it must be noted that Rivers State Government is not interested in the persecution of the defendants, hence it did not oppose the bail application. He said that the State Government is only interested in prosecuting the defendants in line with the law.
He said that the defendants will be released as soon as they perfect their bail.
It will be recalled that on April 7, a Port Harcourt Chief Magistrate Court remanded two pilots of Carveton Helicopters, Samuel Ugorji and Samuel Buhari in prison custody, for allegedly intentionally disobeying the Executive Order issued by the Rivers State Governor aimed at checking the spread of coronavirus in the state.
The Court presided over by Chief Magistrate D.D . Ihua-Maduenyi remanded the two pilots at the Delta Hotels , Old GRA, Port Harcourt after the Attorney-General of Rivers State, Professor Zaccheus Adangor applied for that order.
The Pilots who were arrested by the Rivers State Police Command were arraigned by the State Police Command via charge number:PMC/532C/2020.One more photo below.
