Gunmen on Thursday attacked Dr Abiye Sekibo, the Director General of the Peoples Democratic Party Presidential Campaign Council in Rivers State.
Gunmen dressed in police uniform opened fire on Sekibo’s vehicle (Land Cruiser) bullet proof jeep at Rainbow town in Port Harcourt, the state capital.
Sekibo had gone to inspect the venue of the PDP presidential rally and was returning home when he was attacked.
Speaking with reporters in Port Harcourt on Friday, Sekibo said his car was riddled with bullets and the venue of the proposed rally set on fire.
“As we approached the site, those policemen who were watching the fire opened fire on our vehicle. I looked at the Hilux vehicles, they were police Hilux vehicles.”
