Rivers Election

Senator Magnus Abe, the All Progressives Congress Party's candidate for Rivers South East Senatorial District at the yet to be concluded legislative re-run election in Rivers State has charged the people of Yeghe Community in Gokana Local Government Area to take their destiny in their hands by rejecting killings of their people.

Senator Abe stated this at the funeral service of former lecturer with the Ken Saro Wiwa Polythenic, Bori, Dr. Vincent Eebee whose life was cut short by assailants on the 21st of April, 2016 in his home town, Bua Yeghe while returning from work.

Senator Abe said the only way the people can reject what is happening is to expose perpetrators of such killings so that they will have no hiding place.
He frowned at the incessant killings in Yeghe Community citing the cases of late Clement Faa, Pius Gbarasia, Barine Court and Chief Moses, the town crier of the community who he said were killed by gunfire.

Earlier, while reading the biography of her husband, Mrs. Tambari Eebee in an emotionally laden voice said her late husband ran to the community for safety but unknown to him that the community was a lion's den.
