LG Polls: ‘APC ‘ll Sweep Andoni’
A party chieftain and Coordinator of All Progressives Congress (APC), Andoni Local Government Area Chapter, Mr Emmanuel Njah says the party has fine-turned plans to produce the next chairman of the area in the forth coming local government elections in the state.
Njah who disclosed this in an interview with the newsmen in Port Harcourt said APC is gradually garnering the support of the people in virtually all the wards in the area.
He said out of eleven wards in Andoni, APC has control of nine wards without opposition.
The APC Chieftain lauded the chairman of the council, Hon. Orom Nte Ereforokuma for making the area a hub of business activities by linking almost all the communities in Andoni to the National grid.
He said before now most Andoni communities from Asarama to Unyeada and Ebukama including Ngo, the headquarter of the area, experienced inadequate and erratic power supply as in Port Harcourt city.
On the alleged shooting of Senator Magnus Abe, the Andoni APC Chief condemned the police action in the Save Rivers movement’s rally at Obio/Akpor Local Government Area of the state.
Njah regretted that the people of Rivers State are gradually losing the confidence reposed in the police for the security of lives and property.
He expressed optimism that the national Assembly would ensure that justice prevails over the recent actions of the police in Obio/Akpor and Khana local government areas of the state.
Njah commended Governor Chibuike Rotimi Amaechi of Rivers State for his sterling leadership quality and maturity in the face of intimidation by the opposition in the state.
