Protest, counter-protest rock Rivers ahead of guber results collation
The protests, which are organised by political parties and civil society organisations, have heightened the already charged atmosphere in the state.
The groups particularly requested for more support from the military and other security agencies for the peace and security of lives of the Rivers people. A Colonel, A.D Abubakar, who received the letter on behalf of the General Officer Commanding Six Division Nigeria Army, Port Harcourt, commended the people and assured that their letter will get to appropriate authorities.
The IPAC leaders declared that the Peace Walk was aimed at telling the world that Rivers people irrespective of political affiliations, voted overwhelmingly for Governor Wike on March 9, 2019. In his address, Chairman of IPAC Rivers State, Sir Precious Baridoo said that the political parties are calling on INEC to continue with the collation and declaration of the governorship election results.
