Secondus Commends Rivers Voters Over LG Polls

The former national chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) Prince Uche Secondus, has commended the people of Rivers State, particularly the voters, for turning out massively on Saturday and resisting all the threats from hired hoodlums.

He also commended Governor Similaya Fubara for standing out for democracy and providing leadership to his people when it was very necessary by refusing to be intimidated.

Secondus also warned that all indexes of a failed democracy already exist in Nigeria today, and the federal government should be careful about how it handles anti-democratic operatives.

He condemned the acts of hired thugs before and after the elections, and warned about a threat to democracy in Nigeria as a result of the acts of political actors.

The former PDP national chairman reminded the federal government of the strategic importance of Rivers State which hosts critical assets of the nation.

Secondus advised President Tinubu to work with Governor Fubara to protect these assets.

He called on President Bola Tinubu to address what he alleged are the excesses of the minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Bar Nyesom Wike.
