We have Enough Evidence To show that APC Ward Congress Held In Rivers’ – Dogo

Chairman of the Ward Congress Committee of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Rivers State, Mr. Joseph Dogo, has said the committee has enough documented evidence to prove that the congress held in the state.

Dogo, who was responding to an allegation by the senator representing Rivers South-East district in the National Assembly, Senator Magnus Ngei Abe, that the Ward congress did not hold in the state, told newsmen in Port Harcourt on Sunday that the congress also held in the senator’s ward in Gokana local government area of the state.

He said, “Based on what I said, there was election. I don’t know where there is a contradiction between an allegation and a fact. If there is a allegation and a fact, I don’t know how a contradictory it is. From the report that was documented, including the one from the Distinguished Senator’s ward, we will make available to the press documented evidence that even in his ward, there was election.

“So, the issue of a contradiction does not even arise because you cannot be talking about contradiction when there is an allegation and a fact. If he can prove that these are fiction, then in the whole of Rivers State, there was no election.”

Dogo stated that the committee has received results from the 319 wards in the state, saying that the result would be processed by the committee before being handed over to the Appeal Committee.

He said, “So far we have received results from the 23 local government areas in Rivers State with total combined wards of 319. With the receipt of these results now completed, the task now is on the committee to go through the processing of the result, so that we can handover this report to the Appeal Committee, which will start sitting by tomorrow.

“The Appeal Committee will look into any appeal coming out of the exercise that was conducted. We wish to thank members of security agencies, the Police, the DSS. We want to INEC who are in all nooks and crannies of Rivers State.

“We equally want to thank members of the Press, who despite the peculiar nature of this assignment, are doing their best to bring to light whatever we are doing.”
