LG Poll: We’ll end oppression in Rivers, says APP

The Action Peoples Party (APP) has expressed gratitude to Rivers State people and party faithful for their support in the just concluded Local Government chairmanship election.

Recall that on Saturday, APP in a landslide victory won 22 chairmanship positions out of 23 in the Rivers State local government election.

The Chief Election Officer of the Rivers State Independent Electoral Commission, Justice Adolphus Enebeli, made this known on Saturday in Port Harcourt, the state capital.

Following the announcement, celebration hit Rivers State as supporters of the party and the main opposition People’s Democratic Party trooped out to dance.

Recall that the PDP withdrew from the October 5 poll due to a deepening political rift between Governor Siminalayi Fubara and Nyesom Wike, Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT).

Reacting to the victory, the National Chairman of the Party, Barr. Uchenna Nnadi, expressed gratitude to Rivers residents for voting the party despite attempts to scuttle the exercise through court injunctions.

He assured Rivers People that APP is committed to liberating them from oppression and victimization, and as well transforming the LGAs.

Nnadi said the elected chairmen would work for their overall wellbeing.

Nnadi said, “I’m happy and elated about the landslide victory. I thank God and I thank Rivers people for believing in the Action People’s Party, APP, despite attempts by some selfish individuals who are obsessed with holding on to power that don’t belong to them.

“Their attempts to secure baseless court injunctions failed woefully, Rivers people have spoken. And like I assured you before the election day, A vote for APP will end political oppression in Rivers State, I thereby welcome all party faithful. Let’s get work and give the Rivers Local government the positive change they are yearning for.”
