Deputy national chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Chief Segun Oni, has said the rate at which people, especially members and supporters of the party are being killed in Rivers State shows that there is an ongoing genocide against APC members in the state.
Oni stated this in Port Harcourt, the Rivers State capital when he led members of the National Working Committee (NWC) of the APC to communities where supporters of the party and other people were murdered.
Mrs Tijani Ramani, who is the national women leader of party, national youth leader, Mr Dasuki Ibrahim, and deputy national secretary, Mr Orji Ngofa were among members of the NWC, who accompanied Ooni on the visit.
Oni described the act of killing and chopping off heads of APC members by their assailants as genocide, adding that such act would not be allowed to continue.
The APC acting chairman assured that the party would make a serious appeal to President Muhammadu Buhari to intervene in the precarious situation of the people of the state.
“I am surprised that this kind of thing is happening in Rivers which indeed is part of Nigerian. It is strange that people will kill their fellow human being, cut off their and take it away as if it were a souvenir,” he lamented.
