The Rivers state government has revoked its approval of Adokiye Amiesimaka stadium for the Peoples Democratic Party to use for its presidential campaign rally.
But in a letter dated January 31 and addressed to Aminu Tambuwal, governor of Sokoto and director-general of the PDP presidential campaign council, Christopher Green, Rivers commissioner for sports, said the approval has been withdrawn. “Government records show that the activities of the All Progressives Congress in Rivers State have always been marred by violence due largely to irreconcilable internal conflicts within the party, including shootings and killings in the course of protests arising from the nomination process of delegates for primaries and detonation of explosives in the course of campaigns.
