SDP Candidate Flays Attack On APC Supporters

The Social Democratic
Party (SDP) governorship candidate in Rivers State, Rev. Minaibim Harry,   has decried the attack on All Progressives Congress (APC) supporters by unknown persons in the state.
He said, Wednesday in Port Harcourt that the attack was caused by unemployment and rivalry amongst some political parties in the state.
Harry, who is also the President of Minaibim Harry Global Peace Initiative, however, urged the people of the state to reject violence.
He said, ‘’we are going to empower the young people in the state; the people who have the energy to fight and carry guns. ‘’In my own opinion, it is a terrible thing for us to have young people who will go out to fight, that means that they don’t have the jobs they are doing.
‘’We have people working in banks, people working in offices, who were doing their jobs while this rally was on and none of them went to attack anybody. ‘’So, it shows the level of unemployment in the state.
‘’ So, if we want to tackle insecurity in the state, we must look at making sure that our young people are gainfully employed, so that instead of going to carry arms, they will be in their offices working,” he added.
