The Rivers State Police Command in Rivers has debunked a report of armed robbery at a popular bank in Port Harcourt.
The spokesperson for the state police command, Grace Iringe-Koko, made the clarification in a statement in Port Harcourt on Wednesday.
She urged the people of the state to disregard the report, which claimed that armed robbers stormed a bank on September 23, and asked residents to avoid parts of the city.

“We urge the public to disregard the report entirely and desist from sharing unverified information,” she added.
