Properties destroyed as dynamite explosion hit the secretariat of the Action People’s Party along the GRA axis of Port Harcourt, Rivers State capital on Monday morning around 1am
It was disclosed that the assailants allegedly threw substances believed to be dynamite into the building housing the secretariat shattering windows and doors.
This came amidst speculations that the State Governor, Siminalayi Fubara, plans to move with his supporters to the APP following the alleged hijack of the Peoples Democratic Party in the state by his predecessor and estranged political godfather, Nyesom Wike.
A party official who chooses to be anonymous stated that “Yes, I’m a member of the APP. I was informed of the attack at about 3 am today.
This is politically-motivated and there is no two ways about it. They know that the APP is a fast-growing political party in the state. We call on the police to investigate this and arrest the culprits.”
