Gunmen Shoot Security Guard at Party Secretariat in Rivers
The attack comes less than a month after the party’s secretariat in the New GRA of Port Harcourt was bombed.
Gunmen have reportedly shot a security guard at the Action People’s Party (APP) secretariat in Port Harcourt, Rivers State.
The attack which was reportedly carried out at midnight comes less than a month after the party’s secretariat in the New GRA of Port Harcourt was bombed.
The state chairman of the party, Sunny Wokekoro who addressed journalists at the party’s secretariat on Wednesday said details surrounding the shooting remain unclear
He said 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.

The APP chairman expressed concern about the ability of the police to identify the culprits behind the recent attack, especially since they are yet to disclose any details about last month’s explosion.
Wokekoro and other leaders of the party also took journalists to the hospital where the injured security guard was being treated.
However, the hospital staff prevented journalists from speaking with the victim.
The APP Chairman insisted that the attacks will not deter the party from carrying out its activities and participating in the local government election next month.
