It was chaos in Rivers state as members of the All Progressives Congress party tried to hold its congress in the state. 

Members of the Rivers State chapter of the All Progressives Congress on Saturday expressed dissatisfaction over the manner its party congress was handled in the state.  

 

Senator representing Rivers South East Senatorial District, Senator Magnus Abe raised alarm stating that congress did not hold in the state as he alleged that there was manipulation of the delegate list by some party leaders.

 

Abe who spoke at the state secretariat of the party on Forces Avenue, old GRA, Port Harcourt, said the committee delegated by the national secretariat of the party to monitor the exercise in the state ended up at a hotel in the state.

 

“Well as you can see there has been no Congress in the state. The so called stakeholders meeting in the state on Friday ended in a fiasco. The committee from the national have not come to the party’s secretariat on Forces Avenue since morning yet people have been here waiting for

"Nobody should stay in a hotel and use any list for Rivers people.

"It is clear there was no Congress in the state. What ever has been done will not stand“, he said.

 

Members also alleged that some leaders of the party had already written a result even when an election was not held.
