Rivers APC brands Gov Fubara’s judicial panel a witch hunt

The Acting Chairman of the All Progressive Congress (APC) in Rivers State, Tony Okocha, has described the judicial panel of inquiry set up by Governor Siminilaye Fubara in the state as a witch hunt.

The governor had early this month set up a seven-man panel headed by Justice Ibiwengi Minakiri to investigate the violence that trailed the local government election in the state.

In a statement issued on Thursday in Port Harcourt, the APC chairman said there was no sincerity in the governor’s decision to set up the panel.
