PORT HARCOURT — CRISIS almost marred a forum of the ruling Peoples Democratic Party, PDP,  in Eku, weekend, as supporters of some of the aspirants who were to declare their aspirations at the forum engaged in a fight. Problem started when the main entrance into the hall of the event was shut against one of the aspirants by some youths.

The aspirant who got to the entrance displayed what many later described as appreciable level of maturity until the door was opened. It took the timely intervention of some elders of the party to calm nerves at the venue of the event.

Meanwhile, the party forum which was presided over by the Ward nine Chairman of the party, Chief Sunday Okiti,  had about five aspirants for various political offices in attendance. One of them who was a former Special Adviser on National Assembly/Federal Capital Territory Matters to the former Governor of the state, Chief Blessing Ohwavborua,  said he was gunning for the federal House of Representatives.

Ohwavborua who is a two time aspirant for the office called for support from his community members.
