Port Harcourt – About 50 heavily armed soldiers mounted heavy blockade around the family residence of the governorship candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, Barr Nyesom Wike as early as 6am today.

Vehicles were thoroughly searched before being allowed to drive through Wipey Junction, a very busy intersection close to the family residence.
At about 6:40 am the soldiers were seen emptying sand bags from one of their trucks.

Effort by Vanguard to take shots was rebuffed by one of the soldiers who appeared like the head of the troop.

Pedestrians were seen raising their hands as they walked pass the soldiers who took strategic positions with their riffles

Oops

I'll respect GEJ if this heavy deployment of military is to abate rigging and protect voters. However, If this is meant to enhance rigging, then he'd have lost whatever little respect he had left from me.

This government has made me confused...who get power pass
4 dis country ?

Ehn

This is the last minutes call to #Nigerian voter:

1. We should shun all form of violence before, during and after election no matter the outcomes. Election No Be War #VoteNotFight

2. We should not be lure into selling our franchise. Vote not for money but for the party you share their ideology.

3. Do not be confused rather be convinced that you are voting for political party as we will have party logo and not picture of candidate on ballot paper.

4. Do not fall into the category of the end justify the means as an economist said "in the end, all may not be alive". So avoid trouble and violence #votenotfight. Your life is too precious than to regret we loose you.

5. Know that the way a party is govern will determine how the state will be govern. So please be careful so as not to regret your actions.

A vote for a party indicate your endorsement of the party manifesto for the next four years.

The value of your vote is to bring about improved governance.

Election No Be War #VoteNotFight.

My signature all the way

Wike won't rule rivers state.Even if he wins,he will still be booted out.

Thought he wanted to lead a war. He should start by ordering those 50 soldiers around. When he receives one mighty slap, he'll chill. Rubbish.
