Saturday, October 5, 2024 -An explosive believed to be dynamite rocked the All Progressives Congress secretariat along Aba Road in Port Harcourt, Rivers State capital, today October 5, destroying some windows, gates and other parts of the building.
Speaking to Channels TV’s correspondent,
the Chairman of the faction of APC in Rivers State, Tony Okocha narrated how
the incident happened.
“About
3:20am some gun-trotting young men with their explosives and all that, came
here and dropped the first explosive, maybe because the one they dropped here
did not detonate, they came back the second time to burn the structure – look
at the security house is gone. Behind me you will see that there was also an
attempt, our people came and we were able to quench the fire,” Okocha said
He alleged that the incident was
politically motivated and blamed the governor, Siminalayi Fubara, whom he said
had earlier declared war over the local government election.
“Is the APC secretariat here any voting
unit? There is no voting unit here. So, it was deliberate to see how they can
annihilate us, it is deliberate to see how they can embarrass us, it is
deliberate to see how they can decimate us,” Okocha said.
