The party says Atiku’s supporters in Rivers state are being attacked. The Peoples Democratic Party in Rivers State says it cancelled its presidential rally in Port Harcourt to avoid loss of lives. The Chairman of the PDP PCC in Rivers State, Senator Lee Maeba disclosed this during a media briefing on Monday, February 13, 2023.


According to Maeba, there had been several attacks against PDP members and Atiku’s supporters in the state in the last three months.

He said, “On December 14, 2022, one Rhino Owhohaire, the Youth Director, Atiku/Okowa Campaign Council, was shot in his village of Alu in the Ikwerre Local Government Area, and the incident was reported to the police high command, but nothing happened.“Even when a suspect was arrested, the government of Rivers State, as an interested accomplice, went and took him on bail.

“On February 5, 2023, 31 members of the Atiku Support Group were arrested at their meeting venue at the GRA, Port Harcourt, arraigned and remanded at the correctional centre in Port Harcourt on trumped-up charges of unlawful assembly, conspiracy, and cultism.

“On February 9, 2023, Abiye Sekibo was informed that the venue earmarked for the PDP presidential campaign rally was on fire at Rainbow Town in Port Harcourt.

“He (Sekibo) was attacked when he went to verify the accuracy of the information. The attack was carried out by the police attached to the Government House in Port Harcourt.

“Fortunately, he escaped unhurt by the divine providence of God, but his vehicle was fatally damaged by a rain of bullets.”

He also accused Governor Nyesom Wike of using “Government House police and other hoodlums, has unleashed unrelenting violence, making the peaceful use of the facility impossible, among other things.“In light of the above submission, we, the state Campaign Council, in total constructive engagement with the National Presidential Campaign Council, the candidate, and the party, believe that no loss of human life can be tolerated or accepted before, during, or after the rally and have agreed with our principals on the need to shelve and/or cancel the rally to avoid any deaths,” he said.

PDP has resort to sharing votes in Rivers State. But at same time I feel Atiku and his camp has a plan in place.

Wike should pray hard that Atiku loses the election.

Sekibo, Farah, etc will come out with full force.
