The Acting Chairman of the All Progressives Congress, (APC) in Rivers State, Tony C. Okocha has condemned the gory picture of women half naked in Rivers under the auspices of a Pro-Government group dubbed ‘Rivers Women Unite For Sim<<<READ FULL ARTICLE>>>
He said everyday, the gory sight of these pictures traumatise him.
He said Rivers State has dangerously taken the passenger seat in the vehicle occupied by States.
Okocha said the Governor must quickly identify and isolate and seek to correct the missteps and indiscretions and rudderlessness and cluelessness of his government and make deliberate attempts to take Rivers State out of her present squalor and dungeon.
He said Governor Sim and his Rivers Women Unite for Sim should apologise to Rivers State people, her women and entire womanhood in general, for funding and encouraging and applauding the moral suicide meted on those vulnerable women clad half naked and shown to the public and the huge shame brought to Rivers People.
“The hues and cries of those vulnerable women when they saw them and their Children saw pictures on how they were disgraceful advertised, are so loud.
” I am told through credible intelligence that a particular one, wants to commit suicide.
“Gov Sim, pls your apologies will save this life and take away the shame on the faces of their children and relatives.
“Rivers State APC, as the main opposition party in the State, shall not be deterred, cajoled/psychologised into docility or hoodwinked howsoever, to back down on the noble course of speaking for the circumstantially speechless masses
Speaking further on the gory pictures of the women walking for Governor Fubara said:
“Pictures of our vulnerable grandmothers, mothers, wives and cisters, clad half naked for a paltry and miserable lucre, orchestrated by a system that is supposed to protect their decency.
“My sensibilities are insulted as I received myriads of phone calls and messages from all over the world, querying the reality or otherwise of this ugly scenario in our dear Rivers State.

“I had made frantic efforts to dodge and claim ignorance or consciously fall to the fallacy of red herring on the issues pointedly raised concerning the ugly pictures, but how would I succeed in dismissing with a wave of the hands, when the placards handed over to the women explain clearly that they are Rivers State women drawn from different ethnic stocks and local Government Areas?
“In good conscience, can any reader truly deny the fact that these women, who can’t read nor understand the messages contained in the placards handed to them, were rented and hired and specifically directed to come half naked and walk the streets of Port Harcourt, from CFC junction to Polo Club in GRA phase 2, Port Harcourt for an offer they choicelessly because of striking hunger, couldn’t resist?
“What was the central message around the inglorious walk? support for the shaky Governor Fubara? Such ignoramus in this contemporary world?
Okocha said the government who ought to present as cynosure of excellence for her citizens before the world, is in this case, the crystal harbinger and proponent in chief, of the painful amoral act that was exported to the world<<<READ FULL ARTICLE>>>
