The Governor of Bayelsa State, Senator Douye Diri, has suspended HRH Wilcox Seiyefa Job, the Paramount Ruler of the Swali Community in Yenagoa Local Government Area.
The suspension, which was jointly signed by Mrs. Ebiuwou Koku-Obiyai, the Commissioner for Information, Orientation and Strategy and Chief Thompson Amule, Commissioner for Local Government and Chieftaincy Affairs, said the suspension is with immediate effect.
The statement said the suspension, ” Is due to the traditional ruler’s inability to show leadership expected of his position in the fight against crime and cultism amidst credible intelligence that two of his sons are involved in cult activities in the community”.
The statement further said the Commissioner of Police in the state has been directed to declare the two royal sons and all those involved in cultism in Swali wanted, adding that all those involved are to be arrested for investigation and prosecution.
