He also accused the IGP of complacency, noting that he had not given attention to all the petitions written to him by the party.

Oji said: “These matters were reported and it shouldn’t have gotten to the point where institutions charged with the responsibility to take care of these things are doing nothing.

“We would not have gotten to the point, where people are beginning to wonder if actually we have an APC government and APC members are targeted in Rivers state.

“People cannot believe that Nigerian citizens are killed this way in Rivers.”

Engr. Segun Oni, the acting national chairman of the party had on Wednesday during a press briefing said the security situation in Rivers state is clearly an affront on the Federal Government’s power to protect lives and property within its territory.
