The Action People’s Party, APP, along the GRA axis of Port Harcourt, Rivers State capital suffered a dynamite explosion on Monday.

The incident reportedly occurred in the early hours of Monday precisely around 1am.

The assailants allegedly threw dynamites into the building housing the secretariat, destroying windows and doors, as well as other property of the party.

This came amidst speculations that the State Governor, Siminalayi Fubara, plans to move with his supporters to the APP.

A party official who chose to remain anonymous said the incident was politically-motivated.

He said “Yes, I’m a member of the APP. I was informed of the attack at about 3 am today

“This is politically-motivated and there is no two ways about it. They know that the APP is a fast-growing political party in the state. We call on the police to investigate this and arrest the culprits.”

However, the spokesperson for the state police command, Grace Iringe-Koko, said she was not yet aware of the incident.
