The Rivers State Government through its Commissioner for Information and Communications, Joseph Johnson has condemned the call by Tony Okocha for a state of emergency to be declared in the state.
Okocha is the Rivers Caretaker Committee (CTC) Chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC).
He had called for the state of emergency over the breakdown of law and order arising from the local government crisis in Rivers.
But Johnson accused Okocha of having the penchant for spreading lies and scaremongering.
On Tony Okocha I don’t think that what Okocha said is worth giving any attention. We should not break our heads over what Tony Okocha said.
“The other time he said there was a cholera outbreak when the medical personnel visited the place they said there is nothing like that.
“Another day he said he was welcoming members of the House of Assembly who defeated the APC. What is the position today?
He also said that he was going to ask the members of the House of Assembly to commence impeachment of the governor, what is the position today?
“All these talks are what we call Bobo juice, He is talking to himself, he is not talking to anybody and he is not talking to Rivers people.”
