The governorship candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Rivers State, Tonye Cole, has called for a peaceful campaign ahead of the governorship election in the state in March.
No fewer than three persons were reported injured when an explosion rocked the APC governorship campaign at the Rumuwoji Playground in the state capital on Thursday, with accusing fingers pointing at Governor Nyesom Wike and the ruling Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) from the APC camp.
However, Governor Wike has distanced himself and the PDP from the incident and blamed it on the APC candidate and his party.
But speaking on Channels Television’s Politics Today on Friday, Cole said it is high time Rivers State was known for something other than violence.
