Nyesom Wike, Rivers state governor has vowed to release video evidence of atrocities allegedly committed by the Nigerian Army during the legislative rerun election of last weekend.
While stating that there is a ploy to declare a state of emergency in Rivers, Wike said the All Progressives Congress was hellbent on creating the propaganda of prevalent violence in the state.
The governor released a statement on Monday through Simeon Nwakaudu, his spokesperson.
“We have videos of the atrocities committed by the military across Rivers State. We shall release them at the appropriate time,” S
“There is an attempt to cause violence to declare a state of emergency in Rivers state.”
Wike further said it would be ‘difficult’ for the APC to take over the state from the Peoples Democratic Party- which he belongs to.
“While we campaigned, they were not campaigning. With what I have done in a few months, it will be difficult to defeat PDP in the state. Now, we have a strong opposition for the first time. It is a healthy development.”
