No Election In Some Parts Of Rivers,army Tells Tribunal by aylagos(m): 4:32am On Sep 10, 2015
An army officer, Captain Garba Sani, told the Rivers State Governorship Elections Petition Tribunal sitting in Abuja on Wednesday‎ that he never saw where election was conducted in Tai Local Government Area where he and his other men were deployed to maintain peace and order on April 11, 2015, the day the poll was scheduled to hold.

The Mohammed Ambrosa-led tribunal overruled the objection by Governor Nyesom Wike, his party, the Peoples Democratic Party, and the Independent National Electoral Commission, before Sani was allowed to give his oral evidence on Wednesday.

Sani, a subpoenaed witness, who said he led 37 other soldiers on a patrol of the entire Tai, which is one of the 23 local government areas in Rivers State, said he appeared before the tribunal on the directive of army authorities.

‎The soldier, who is of the Bori Camp, Army Barracks in Port Harcourt, Rivers State capital, said he received the directive of the army authorities through the Directorate, Legal, of the Nigerian Army, after his unit received “a signal” about the subpoena served on the Chief of Army Staff, Maj.-Gen. Tukur Buratai. ‎ The subpoena served on the Chief of Army Staff was obtained upon a request by the petitioners – the All Progressives Congress and its candidate in the April 11 poll, Dr. Dakuku Peterside – who are challenging the declaration of Governor Wike as the winner of the election.

The soldier, led in evidence by the petitioners’ counsel, Chief Akin Olujinmi (SAN), said his team’s patrol started at about 6pm on April 10 into the night and up till the election day on April 11

Don't be so sure, its an open race, WIKE is trying to buy the hearts by doing roads, APC is giving people hope by the improved power supply in most areas except ALUU, petrol is now 87 in the entire state without queue.

The winner will have to work very hard and INEC will have to be in top shape.

I completely agree with this. I just find it complexing Wike resorted to armed thugs and the likes to win an election that the winner was never in doubt. If we ought to do things, let's do them right. I'm no fan of Dakuku but I hope the tribunal upholds the rights of the Rivers State indigene to pick his leader without electoral violence and subordination.

Sometimes it is better you judge a situation objectively rather than sitting down in Lagos and be proclaiming what you know nothing about with sentiment.
pray you never witness war in your lifetime and pray war never break out from your very apartment and tell me who will rescue you.

See PDP threatening fire just because of the juicy allocation of Rivers state. Delta, Akwa Ibom, Cross R., Bayelsa, and Rivers will be hardest to wrestle from the corrupt clutches of do or die politics.

Gobe! But the only snag is whether Amaechi/Peterside can win even a fair contest in rivers state.

Many voters in that state still see Amaechi as a sell-out, perhaps wrongly.

I don't like wike and his style, but if the election is cancelled, what next?

yes now, my corper friend attested to that.
But one thing is certain; let them hold the election 10 times, Wike will defeat Dakuku.
It's simple political mathematics.
Every party has its strong hold.
