Wokekoro assured the people of victory, saying “This will be made possible because the people are behind APP. God is on our side, to use us as a tool to liberate Rivers State”.
He said Rivers people irrespective of ethnic nationality, or sectorial affiliation are united over the quest for liberation of Rivers State, adding that APP is poised to deliver in such direction.
The contestants for the council polls contesting on the platform of APP were PDP members who dumped the party following the festering crisis between the Rivers State Governor, Siminalayi Fubara, and, Nyesom Wike, the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT).
Recently, Wike presided over the congress that ushered in the new executive members of the PDP. Fubara and his supporters boycotted the congress.
