Suspected thugs early this morning invaded the venue of the scheduled rally of APC governorship candidate, Dakuku Peterside in Okrika, Rivers State and bombed the podium erected for the rally. Peterside was billed to flag off his guber campaign in Okrika, the home town of Dame Patience Jonathan today.
Rivers State commissioner of police, Dan Bature who confirmed the story to journalist in Port Harcourt today said the APC rally arena was attacked with an explosive device suspected to be dynamite by unidentified assailants.
