The All Progressives Congress (APC) is urging the federal government to declare a state of emergency in Rivers State due to the escalating political crisis. According to APC caretaker chairman, Chief Tony Okocha, the state is in a state of war and the government is helpless to contain the situation. The crisis is a result of the ongoing power struggle between Governor Siminalayi Fubara and his predecessor Nyesom Wike. The APC is calling for the deployment of soldiers to strategic locations in the state to restore order and stability. The situation is rapidly deteriorating, causing widespread mayhem and threatening public health and safety. The federal government has the authority to declare a state of emergency in situations like this, and the APC believes it is necessary to prevent further chaos and loss of life.
