The All Progressives Congress (APC) in Rivers State loyal to the former Minister of Transportation, Rotimi Amaechi, has dissociated itself from the call for the declaration of state of emergency in the state by the Chief Tony Okocha-led caretaker committee of the party describing it as unnecessary, illogical, and also unpatriotic

Spokesman of the group, Darlington Nwauju, who disclosed this in Port Harcourt said members of the APC in the state never met to discuss the declaration of state of emergency.

Nwauju stated that there was also no consultations amongst leaders of the party in the state to decide that the best strategy or formula to nip in the bud, the brewing political crisis is to demand for an emergency rule.

He said, “My attention has been drawn to an address today (Wednesday) June 19, 2024, by those parading themselves as caretaker committee members of the APC in Rivers State demanding for a declaration of ‘State of Emergency’ in Rivers State.

“I wish to quickly inform the people of the State that the APC in Rivers State did not at any point in time hold any meeting amongst its members; or hold consultations amongst its leaders to decide that at this point in time, the best strategy or formula to nip in the bud the brewing political crisis is to demand for a ‘State of Emergency’.

“There were no such consultations; there were no such meetings, and so it cannot stand as the aggregate opinion of members of the APC across the 390 wards in Rivers State.

“So, I want to quickly dispel such a rumour, and dismiss it as unnecessary, as illogical, and as also unpatriotic. Rivers State must have other means to settle these political issues.

“Do not forget that due to the strategic role Rivers State plays in the economy of Nigeria, one must be very careful in handling or making suggestions to possible ways and means to manage these challenges.

“We hope as a political party that peace shall return completely across all the nooks and crannies of our dear Rivers State. So, fermenting troubles or causing confusion is not what the state requires at this point in time.”
