Former Council Chairmen in Rivers state have accused Governor Siminalayi Fubara of sponsoring hoodlums to infiltrate the #EndBadGovernance protests to cause rowdiness for political gain.
Mr Alwell Ihunda who spoke on behalf of the former chairmen, condemned attacks on the APC Secretariat and the FCT Minister’s home.
Also, former Chairman of Emohua, Chidi Lloyd accused Governor Fubara of masterminding the threats to the home of the FCT Minister.
As the ongoing #EndBadGovernance protest continues in Rivers State with some violent dimensions being introduced, the state All Progressives Congress (APC), under Sir Tony Okocha, and the Rivers State Government are at each other’s throats, trading blame.
The Chairman of the Caretaker Committee of the party, Sir Tony Okocha, publicly accused Governor Siminalayi Fubara on Tuesday of sponsoring the protesters who attacked the party’s secretariat on Monday, tearing down the party’s signpost along the Port Harcourt/Aba Expressway.
The State Government, however, immediately responded through Senibo Joseph Johnson, the Commissioner for Information and Communications, exonerating the Governor from any such involvement and, in turn, accusing the APC Caretaker Chairman of sponsoring the violent protests to justify calling for a state of emergency in the state.
