Breaking: Explosion rocks APC secretariat on Rivers LG election day

Explosives destroyed buildings and others property at the secretariat of the All Progressives Congress (APC) along Aba Road, Port Harcourt, the Rivers State capital.

The gate of the secretariat and the doors were shattered by the explosion which happened Saturday morning while local government election is taking place in the state.

Speaking on the incident in an interview with Channels Tv, the Chairman of the faction of APC in Rivers State, Tony Okocha narrated how the incident happened.

“About 3:20am some gun-trotting young men with their explosives and all that, came here and dropped the first explosive, maybe because the one they dropped here did not detonate, they came back the second time to burn the structure – look at the security house is gone.

“Behind me you will see that there was also an attempt, our people came and we were able to quench the fire,” Okocha said.
