Armed militias working for the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, have intensified their killings of All Progressives Congress, APC, in Rivers State.

Scores have already been killed and several others marked for elimination. Specifically, PDP armed men target APC strongholds for attack using heavy gunfire.

The Greater Together Campaign Organisation, the campaign outfit for Dr. Dakuku Adol Peterside, has condemned this visit of terror on the state.

GTCO disclosed that on Saturday morning in Kpite Town, Tai Ward 2, 2 people were shot dead by PDP armed militia, and that was before accreditation commenced.

Ibim Semenitari, Director of Communications, Greater Together Campaign Organisation, has condemned the killings and threats for further killings of APC members across Rivers State.

“What PDP has been doing is to target APC strongholds and chieftains for attacks and killings. We condemn these visits of violence on APC members. It is unacceptable and is not what democracy should be. PDP should allow Rivers people to vote without guns pointed on their throats”.
