Published

on

The Rivers State chapter of the All Progressives Congress (APC), under the leadership of Tony Okocha, went ahead with its party congresses on Saturday, calling the process peaceful despite a court order barring the event.....KINDLY READ THE FULL STORY HERE▶

 

The congresses, which were monitored by officials from the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC), the Department of State Services (DSS), and the police, took place after the Rivers State High Court in Port Harcourt issued an interim injunction on Wednesday. The injunction, signed by Justice G.V. Obomanu, was in response to a lawsuit filed by three disgruntled party members—Okwudili Ndike, Peace Oganu, and Samuel Uchegbule—who claimed they were denied nomination forms despite paying for them.

Notwithstanding the court’s ruling, the APC continued with the congresses. Tony Okocha, the Caretaker Committee Chairman, praised the process. In a statement from the party’s Publicity Secretary in Ikwerre Local Government Area, Jacobs Chimezie, Okocha was reported to have cast his vote in his home LGA of Obio-Akpor before overseeing the congress in Ikwerre. He also thanked local party leaders for their participation and urged them to remain dedicated to the APC’s mission.

Prominent stakeholders from Ikwerre LGA, including Chibike Ikenga (State Publicity Secretary of APC Rivers), Chidi Wihioka (former House of Representatives member), and other key figures, were present at the congress.
