Rerun Elections Hold in Rivers State Today..

As voters in Rivers State file out this morning in a re-run election to fill national and state assembly seats amidst violence, all we ask and hope for is a violence-free rerun elections.

There is already a deep concern and fear about the possible outbreak of violence during the exercise because of happenings In recent weeks, which has turned the state into a battleground of sorts for some members of the main political parties, which scores of lives have been lost in the process.

This has made it clear to all that the state, as it goes to the polls today, may be sitting on a knife’s edge.

But please the nation cannot afford another bloodbath in Rivers. Which is why no room should be left for errors, and no stones should be left unturned to

ensure a violence-free, fair, transparent and credible polls today.

I understand that security is very tight in the state already and the team of security operatives put together for the

poll has assured that today’s elections would be free and fair, but we still want to  beg the youths especially, to avoid any form of violence as they cast their votes today.

#Please just vote

#No Violence
