Unic Press UK: The People’s Democratic Party (PDP) faction led by Senator Ahmed Makarfi says that the All Progressives Congress (APC) had declared war on the people of Rivers State following the utterances of the APC, which clearly called its supporters to take up arms against the PDP.
Excerpts of the message from the PDP on twitter on Friday, the 9th December 2016 reads:
“It was another sad day in Nigeria as top echelon of the Ruling Party in the Country, the All Progressive Congress (APC), on Thursday, December 8, 2016, in Port Harcourt, Rivers State took turns like garrison commanders, ordering their supporters to shoot and kill any member or supporter of our Party, the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP). The APC did not also spare other voters in the state as they ordered their armies to attack them during the Saturday, December 10, 2016 Re-Run Elections… The National Chairman of the APC, Chief John Odigie Oyegun addressing a very scanty crowd at the so called ‘Mega Rally’ in Port Harcourt, Rivers State yesterday openly incited the members and supporters of his party saying If they push you, push them back. If they slap you slap them back. As you can see we came in full force, the whole federal might is here As if that was not enough, the Governor of Kano State, Alhaji Umar Ganduje who is also the Chairman of the APC, Rivers State Re-Run Campaign Committee said, If they shoot at you, take cover and shoot them back.”
