This is as the party said it has so far recorded attacks on its supporters as well as destruction of it’s campaign billboards and other materials in no fewer than six local government areas in the state.

Addressing a media conference in Port Harcourt, spokesman of APC in the state, Darlington Nwauju, said Wike had already directed Chairman of the 23 local government areas and other leaders of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) to work for the party’s presidential candidate, Senator Ahmed Bola Tinubu.

Nwauju said: “Today, we are surprised that the Governor of Rivers State who once referred to the APC as “cancer” and has mocked our party, that anyone who would try to continue with the legacies of the APC is an enemy of the people of Nigeria.

“Surprisingly, we have reliably gathered of the instructions to Council Chairmen across the 23 LGAs to canvass support surreptitiously for the Presidential candidate of the APC, thereby making moves to join the APC through the backdoor rather than staying put with his “malaria” party and solving their internal squabbles.”

He listed the local government areas where APC supporters were attacked or campaign materials destroyed to include; Omuma, Opobo/Nkoro, Andoni, Port Harcourt City, Eleme, Etche and Ikwerre.

The APC spokesman, however thanked Wike for approving the use of the Yakubu Gowon Stadium, Elekahia, Port Harcourt, for the party’s presidential campaign rally scheduled to hold on February 15, 2023.

Nwauju said: “We also welcome the approval granted the Presidential Campaign Office for the use of the Liberation Stadium for the 15th February 2023 Presidential Rally of the APC and its Presidential candidate, Asiwaju Ahmed Bola Tinubu in Rivers State.

“We want to clarify that this approval was sought by the Campaign Council through Hon James Faleke (Secretary of the Campaign), who has also reverted to the State Coordinator of Tinubu Campaign, Pastor (Architect) Tonye Cole and not Tony Okocha as the latter is struggling so hard to erroneously portray.

“Tony is not and cannot be Coordinator of an APC event as he is merely a member of an NGO under the PCC promoting the candidature of our Presidential candidate. He has no right to address the media either on behalf of the Presidential Rally Committee/LOC nor the APC in Rivers State.

“What we know is that Tony Okocha is working hard to justify his pay from Governor Wike. Tony’s NGO has nothing to do with the preparations by Rivers State APC to host it’s Presidential candidate on the 15th of February 2023. We are surprised that the PDP in the state is so interested in using the likes of Tony as decoy to join the APC.”
