The governor noted that it is the responsibility of the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, to conduct credible rerun elections.
The governor said no matter the number of soldiers introduced in Rivers State, the people will protect their votes and PDP will emerge victorious in all the rerun elections.
“I will continue to threaten political armed robbers. I will stand firm against those who use guns to steal votes”.
Governor Wike who led the congregation to observe a minute silence for those killed by the army during an ill-fated operation in Ogoni Land on Monday and Tuesday, announced that the Rivers State Government will cater for the needs of the widows, their children and all the loved ones of those who lost their lives.
Preaching at the PDP
interdenominational Thanksgiving Service, Pastor David Ibiyeomie of the
Salvation Ministries said thanksgiving opens the way for more blessing.
He described Governor Wike as a man destiny who liberated Rivers State from the shackles of political bandage.
The PDP National Chairman, Senator Ali Modu Sheriff said that the Supreme Court Justices simply confirmed the will of Rivers People by the verdict.
He urged the people to vote for the PDP in all the forthcoming re-run elections in the state.
“When I went to Luuwa for the 50th
Birthday Celebration of Senator
Lee Maeba, I told our people not to vote Senator Magnus Ngei Abe and the APC.
There is no way I will play anti-party. Magnus Abe is my friend, but the people
of Rivers South-east Senatorial District should vote Senator Olaka Nwogu. We
have a duty to make sure that the APC does not win a single seat during the
March 19 rerun elections.”
He said that though he supports the
security agencies to fight against criminals and criminality, he will never
support the killing of innocent Ogoni people as was the case during the
ill-fated operation.
The governor said that the state
will never be tired of thanksgiving, because it was delivered from the evil
machinations of the enemies of Rivers People.
The PDP Thanksgiving and Victory
Celebration for the Supreme Court verdict attracted thousands of Rivers People
from the 23 Local Government Areas of the state.
