The All Progressives Congress has said that the attack on its campaign rally on Thursday in Port Harcourt involving the use of Improvised Explosive Devices and rapid gunfire is a vicious assault on democracy.
He called on the Inspector General of Police to order a full, thorough and expeditious investigation of the incident.
Morka said the police could not casually and hastily dismiss eye-witness reports of an explosion of IEDs at the rally without a full and proper investigation. “This is a matter of national concern. Nigerians deserve to know and must be reassured that attending opposition campaign rallies in Rivers State is not akin to a journey of no return to the front lines of illicit and orchestrated war.
“As the Chief Security Officer of the State, Gov. Nyesom Wike, must do his duty to offer equal protection of the law to all citizens of the state.
