- The development may not be unconnected with the leadership crisis in the state
A dynamite explosion rocked the secretariat of the Action People’s Party along the GRA axis of Port Harcourt, Rivers State capital on Monday morning.
It was gathered that the incident occurred in the wee hours of Monday precisely around 1am.
The assailants allegedly threw substances believed to be dynamite into the building housing the secretariat shattering windows and doors, as well as destroying other property of the party.
This came amidst speculations that the State Governor, Siminalayi Fubara, plans to move with his supporters to the APP following the alleged hijack of the Peoples Democratic Party in the state by his predecessor and estranged political godfather, Nyesom Wike.
Meanwhile, the spokesperson for the state police command, Grace Iringe-Koko, said she was not yet aware of the incident but promised to find out.
