The Peoples Democratic
Party (PDP), Rivers state chapter has described Magnus Abe, a senator
representing Rivers south East senatorial district as a security risk to the
state.
Abe is a frontline All
Progressives Congress member for the state.
Felix Obuah, Rivers
PDP chairman, described the directive by Abe that lawmakers elected on the
platform of APC should invade the Assembly without being subjected to the oath
of office as demanded by law, as unbecoming of one who claims to be a federal
lawmaker.
Obuah in a statement signed by his special adviser, media & publicity Jerry Needam said the party expressed worries that Abe’s recent comments and secret meetings call for concern by every patriotic Rivers man and woman.
The PDP regretted that although Magnus Abe is known for unsavory and disrespectful attacks on the government and people of Rivers State, he has continued to make statements which are not only provocative and incisive, but seriously threaten the peace and security of the State.
Bro. Obuah also expressed concern that Magnus Abe has openly been making threatening remarks and boastings which, according to him, are very worrisome and likely to destabilize the corporate existence of the people of the State.
“The PDP is worried at the way and manner Magnus Abe is talking and conducting himself as if he is now the governor and chief security officer of the state, Obuah noted.
The PDP recalls that some criminal gangs in the state refused to embrace the State Government’s recently concluded amnesty, following attacks by Abe on the well intended programme.
He therefore called on
security agencies to put Magnus Abe under surveillance as his actions, if not
checked, could result in breakdown of law and order in the state.
