Rivers State Chapter of Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, has said expressed concern over what it said was the alleged admission by Mr. Davies Ikanya, All Progressives Congress, APC, Chairman in the state, of plotting to stall the democratic process in the state by working towards ensuring that there was no handover to the incoming government in the state on May 29.

Describing the statement credited to Mr. Ikanya as actionable, state Chairman the PDP, Mr. Felix Obuah, in a statement by his media aide, said that the APC wants anarchy in the state because it lost the governorship election.

“All other imputations of assassination plots against our members are a ruse to cover its evil plans,” Obuah said.

He added that the PDP cannot be intimidated or cowed, by unfounded allegations, adding that the people of Rivers State have spoken through their votes for the state governor-elect, Chief Nyesom Wike.

“As a law abiding party, we will continue to align ourselves with the mandate of the people and remain committed to fashioning out ways of bettering their welfare as encapsulated in our campaign promises. No degree of provocation can put the wind off our sail,” Mr Obuah said.

On the proposeded local government council elections, he said: “The state government and APC know full well that they are trading on illegality and this fact cannot be controverted.

“The PDP is not perturbed by the insistence on going on with the council elections, an avenue for making up for already misappropriated state funds.”
