Rivers PDP Threatens To Sue APC, As Gunmen Kill Four In Ogoni

The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Rivers State has threatened legal action against the All Progressives Congress (APC) Chairman in the state, Dr Davies Ibiamu Ikanya, over allegations that the Rivers State Government and the PDP were responsible for the killings of four persons in Ogoniland alleged to be members of the APC.
The state Publicity Secretary of PDP, Samuel Nwanosike, who addressed a press conference in Port Harcourt, Wednesday, also denied insinuations by the APC that PDP contracted ex-freedom fighter, Solomon Ndigbara for the killings.
Nwanosike explained that PDP respect the sanctity of human life.
The PDP publicity secretary also called on security agencies to immediately open investigation into the alleged killing of the four persons in Nonwa, Tai Local Government Area.
It would be recalled that last weekend, reports emerged that one Boris Neenwi, a former councillor and chieftain of the All Progressives Congress (APC) from Yeghe community in Gokana Local Government Area of Rivers State, has been assassinated by unknown gunmen.
Neenwi was reportedly killed along with three others in Tai.
In his reaction to the killings in Tai, the facilitator of Ogoni Next Generation Project and former caretaker committee chairman of Gokana Local Government, Kadilo Kabari, described the incident as unfortunate.
Kabari said it was sad that innocent citizens die every day because of inadequate security.
