CP Eboka condemned the DPO’s actions when the executive members of FIDA Rivers led by its Chairperson Adata Bio-Briggs, visited his office at the Police Headquarters Moscow Road, Port Harcourt, to register their displeasure on the inhumane act exhibited by the Officer in respect to a new born baby found abandoned in a Church at Akpajo, Eleme.
