The All Progressives Congress, APC, has described the allegations made by the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, that it planned to forcefully take over the government of Rivers State as ridiculous and baseless.
It added that the PDP offered no justification for its bogus claim except to mischievously misrepresent and amplify the comments reportedly made by the chairman of the Rivers State APC Caretaker Committee, Chief Tony Okocha, while sweeping under the carpet the salient issues underpinning the festering crisis in Rivers State.
The APC alleged that the governor has continued to expend public funds without lawful appropriations by a duly constituted legislature, thereby undermining the will of the good people of Rivers State and their right to effective and accountable democratic governance. Morka said: “Quite contrary to the PDP’s misplaced quibbles against Chief Okocha's comments, Governor Siminalayi Fubara is the supreme architect of the horrific crisis rocking Rivers State.
