The All Progressives Congress (APC) in Rivers State
says it has learnt with shock of the allegation by the factional Chairman of
the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in the State, Mr. Felix Obuah, that the
Rivers State Government and the APC leadership have a hand in the allege
kidnapping of three PDP chieftains and killing of one other person.
The abducted men include the Port Harcourt Local
Government PDP Chairman, Ikechi Chinda; a former member of the House of
Representatives representing Port Harcourt Federal Constituency I, Hon Chinyere
Igwe; and Alwell Ihunda.
In a press statement to NF-Reports on the night of
27 Feb. 2014, by the Senior Special Aide on Media and Public Affairs to the
Interim State Chairman, APC Rivers State, Chief Eze Chukwumeka Emeka said: “We
consider this allegation not only very unfortunate but also unbecoming of a
fellow who claims to be a party leader”.
“Those who know the antecedents of Governor
Chibuike Rotimi Amaechi and the Rivers State Government under his watch can testify
to his abhorrence for violence, including the unholy acts of kidnapping and
militancy – not to talk of murder! It is a well-known fact that the Amaechi
administration did everything humanly possible to eradicate the menace of
militancy and kidnapping from Rivers State and that it succeeded in doing so
until the likes of Mr. Obuah came on board promoting both militancy and
kidnapping as part of their satanic strategy to make the state ungovernable due
to their political differences with Amaechi This fact is well known to every
keen follower of events in Rivers State.
“It is, therefore, diversionary for Mr. Obuah, who
played a key role in bringing back insecurity to Rivers State, to turn around
to accuse the Amaechi administration in this regard. We urge Mr. Obuh to
apologise to Gov. Amaechi and Rivers APC leadership within 48 hours or we may
feel compelled to explore legal options available to us in this regard. He
should also assist the police to unravel the circumstances behind the alleged
kidnapping and murder since he obviously knows much about these criminal acts.
“Though this act maybe a ploy to protest the
removal of CP Mbu from Rivers State by the PDP faithful seeing that CP Mbu was
one of their prized members and introduction of the type of Government they
intend to run in Rivers State if they take over the reins of governance in
Rivers State come 2015 but now that we have come to terms to their level of
frustration we will ensure that such a group will never taste power anymore in
Rivers State.
“Finally, let us state unequivocally that neither
Rivers APC nor Gov. Amaechi and his administration know anything about the
alleged kidnapping and murder. We will never be involved in any act that will
bring sorrow to even our greatest political enemy or enemies, not to talk of
aiding kidnapping of anybody for whatever reason! We urge the Police to
investigate Mr. Obuah and find out from him why and how these people were
kidnapped as both the Rivers State Government and APC leadership have nothing to
do with this”.
Investigate the matter properly, you will find out that it is another strategy from the PDP pit of hell. We know their ways. If presidential aide could try to rope Sanusi in such an horrible manner, they this is so small compare to what they could do. So let them release their state men from where they hide them. GEJ, weak but wicked president.
