Rivers APC Drags PDP To UN by baski92(m): 6:05am On Jan 22, 2015
Port Harcourt - - The Rivers State Chapter of the All
Progressives Congress (APC) has initiated moves to report the
leadership of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) to
international bodies over the violence the latter allegedly
unleashed in the region.
APC will report its rival to the United Nations, Amnesty
International and Economic Community of West African States,
among others.
Along this line, the Rivers State APC leadership has set up a
ten-man committee to compile evidence of attacks against
APC members, offices and properties.
Peter Odike, the Rivers State APC Deputy Chairman, chairs the
committee.
Rivers State APC Chairman, Dr Davies Ibiamu Ikanya, has
inaugurated the committee which has been given a week to
submit its report and recommendations.
Ikanya urged it to specifically get details of how the party’s
two secretariats in Okirika and Adoni were bombed within a
space of less than a week, how many APC members have
been killed or maimed, and the circumstances under which
these evils were perpetrated.
“It has become the trend to attack our members and destroy
APC’s campaign billboards, posters and banners, particularly
those of our party’s standard bearer, Dr. Dakuku Adol
Peterside, whenever the party is to go out for campaign in any
particular locality.
In any local government area where Chief Nyesome Wike, the
PDP Leader and gubernatorial candidate, is going to
campaign, PDP thugs move round overnight and remove
APC’s billboards, posters and banners to create the
impression that Wike is fully on the ground in the area while
he knows that he is not on ground in any part of Rivers
State,” Ikanya said.
“We can no longer fold our arms and watch while we are
being viciously attacked and slaughtered by people, whose
mission and vision in politics is to spread violence as their
own way of grabbing power, having seen that they have been
overwhelmingly rejected by the electorates.
What makes the situation more pathetic is that security
agencies in Rivers State, including the Police and the
Department of State Security (DSS), have failed to make any
arrest or call the PDP leadership to order simply because they
are controlled by the PDP-led Federal Government, which is
desperate to take over Rivers State at all cost.”
He said Rivers State APC believed in a violence-free election
and campaign based on issues.

“We hereby appeal to the international community to come to
our rescue as unchecked violence in Rivers State has the
potential to instigate a chain of events that may truncate
Nigeria’s nascent democracy.”
He nonetheless commended elder statesman Bolaji Akinyemi,
Kofi Annan former Secretary General of the United Nations
and our own Chief Emeka Anyaoku the former Secretary
General of the Commonwealth, for initiating the Peace Accord
the parties recently endorsed to ensure violence-free elections.
“We, however, wish to state that we should not stop at the
Abuja Peace Accord. We, therefore, wish to draw the attention
of Mr. Annan and Chief Anyaoku to the observation of the USA
Ambassador to Nigeria, James Entwistle, that if care is not
taken, Rivers State may be a battle ground during the
forthcoming elections.”
