Ogasabi on 9am news reported a Breaking news story early Monday morning, detailing a dynamite explosion that rocked the secretariat of the Action People’s Party (APP) in Port Harcourt, the Rivers State capital. The incident occurred around 1 a.m., causing significant damage to the building’s windows, doors, and other property.
Sources indicate that assailants threw what is believed to be dynamite into the building, shattering windows and doors and destroying much of the party’s property. The explosion comes amid growing speculation that Rivers State Governor, Siminalayi Fubara, may move to the APP with his supporters following an alleged hijacking of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in the state by his predecessor and estranged political mentor, Nyesom Wike.
Ogasabi on 9am news confirms that a visit to the scene revealed extensive damage to the ceiling and fittings in the building, with several party officials seen discussing the aftermath. One party official, who chose to remain anonymous, claimed the attack was politically motivated, stating, “This is politically motivated, and there is no two ways about it. They know that the APP is a fast-growing political party in the state. We call on the police to investigate this and arrest the culprits.”
Furthermore, the spokesperson for the state police command, Grace Iringe-Koko, when contacted by 9am news Nigeria, said she was not yet aware of the incident but promised to investigate and provide updates. For further developments, stay tuned to 9am news Nigeria.
