Unidentified gunmen have reportedly shot a security guard at the Action
People’s Party secretariat in Port Harcourt, Rivers State.
This is coming barely a month after the party’s secretariat in the New GRA
of Port Harcourt was bombed.
Addressing newsmen on Wednesday at the party’s secretariat, the state
chairman of the party, Sunny Wokekoro, said details surrounding the
shooting remain unclear. According to him, the injured security guard is
currently receiving treatment at a hospital, while police officers deployed to
the secretariat after the bombing incident are yet to brief the party on the
latest attack.
Wokekoro expressed concern over the ability of the police to identify the
culprits behind the recent attack, especially since they have yet to disclose
any details about last month’s explosion.
The APP chairman and other leaders of the party also took journalists to
the hospital where the injured security guard was being treated. He insisted
that the attacks will not deter the party from carrying out its activities and
participating in the local government election next month.
