The Rivers State Chapter of the All Progressives Congress
(APC) has read several reactions based on the conduct and outcome of her just
concluded non elective Wards/LG Congress held on 29th July, 2017 in all the 23
Local Government Areas of the State. The party observed with misgiving some of
the reactions which were calculated attempts by external forces to discredit an
excerise that was held not only with the best democratic practices but an
excerise that was done in a very peaceful manner in the Local Government
Headquarters of the party.
The party felt displeased that this program that was
widely advertised to hold in the Local Government Areas of the State and
surprisingly instead of most of our party chieftains mobilising their
supporters and associates to the venues of this congress in their Local
Government Headquarters preferred to mobilise them to Port Harcourt for reasons
the leadership of the party is still at a loss to fathom. What may have led to
this if not as a calculated attempt to discredit the party, create unwarranted
tension and division among party faithful.
The party further stated that contrary that were
presented to the world that no party member or leader was denied participation
or access to the venues were the Congress was conducted based on the reports we
got from the party’s officials that monitored the exercise.
“Let us state that as much as we don’t intend to exchange
words with anybody or group of persons over this exercise, we wish to reiterate
that our political party in the State is not only united but very focused to
ensure that we don’t fall into the pranks that caused us the 2015 general
elections in the State as we are very determined to ensure that the current
government in Rivers State is shown the way out come 2019 to enable us restore
the creditability and honour of Rivers State and her people”. Rivers APC said
in a statement signed by the State Chairman, Chief (Dr.) Davies Ibiamu Ikanya,
and released on Tuesday in Port Harcourt.
The party pleads with members that are disenchanted in
any form with the outcome of the Congress to unite with the party in her drive
and mission to sustain democracy and salvage our dear State from the Draconian
Government currently operating in the State. This notwithstanding, the party
reiterated that it will not be deterred, dissuaded or distracted in this
mission to salvage our State from the hands of those who have turned her into
Rivers of Blood and a laughing stock amongst comity of nations particularly
within the States in Nigeria no matter the outbursts and actions of most of the
people that have benefitted so much from the party.
The party also described the attacks on the leader of the
party in the State, Rt. Hon. Chibuike Rotimi Amaechi the incumbent Minister of
the Federal Republic of Nigeria as unnecessary, unwarranted and misplaced as we
can’t forget in a hurry the risk and trouble the leader took in repositioning
the party in the State. The party is and will ever support every democratic effort
by the leader to ensure that we succeed in our common mission of taking over
the Brick House come 2019.
The party formally presents to the public the names of
the candidates that were duly elected during the exercise of 29th July, 2017
and congratulated these great sons and daughters of Rivers State and urge them
to be focused and carry out their functions for the betterment of both the
State and the nation at large.
