APC, Governor at war over rerun election

The Rivers APC Publicity Secretary, Mr Chris Finebone, also said it is in Wike’s character to make wild allegations.

The APC asked Wike to show Nigerians proof of how the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) intends to rig the polls, as he alleged.

Finebone urged INEC not to be distracted by the Governor’s comments, adding that it is all a plan to plot mischief.

He said “If indeed the governor is serious about his discovery and he was referring to the APC when he made reference to the opposition, then we challenge him to make public his findings.

“We believe that it is mere smokescreen by Wike to divert attention from his readiness to deploy from his unholy book of electoral mischief and the APC is ready for him.”

“We believe that what the Rivers Assembly has been goaded into doing is a naked rape of democracy reminiscent of the dark ages.

“Those embarking on this political journey will ultimately find out that they will be held to account for their actions someday,” he added.

Governor Nyesom Wike recently slammed his Edo counterpart, Adams Oshiomhole for saying that he planned to disrupt the postponed Edo Election.
