The officers were said to have staged a protest over unpaid allowances, chanting and singing as they demanded the immediate settlement of their entitlements.
The development briefly disrupted movement within the Government House until senior security officials intervened and restored order.
As of the time of filing this report, the Rivers State Government has yet to issue an official statement on the incident.
