Reacting to the development, a human rights activist, Prince Wiro asked the Rivers State Police Command to begin investigation into the allegation and fish out the randy operative. He said:

“There is no justification for a punishment of rape to be meted out to a woman because she flouted Rivers State Government order on use of nose masks. I expect the police to take this matter serious.

“You know there’s a recent order from the Inspector General of Police charging every Command to do everything possible to make rape a thing of the past in the society.”
