The South South Coordinator of Bola Ahmed Bola Tinubu Campaign, Chief Tony Okocha has called for calm amidst the face-off between PDP and APC in Rivers State over issues concerning the issuance of Certified True Copy (CTC) of governorship election results in the state.

Okocha made the call as hundreds of PDP protesters continued to occupy INEC office in the state for the fourth day over the election results’ CTC.

Chief Okocha, in a statement in Port Harcourt yesterday, urged the APC supporters to restrain themselves from the on-going shenanigans in the state, saying there must be a state first before individual ambitions.

He said the state’s leaders should not fold their arms and allow desperate politicians throw the state back into the era when life was short, nasty and brutish.

He said that the law has made adequate provisions for all aggrieved parties to approach the courts to ventilate and called on all parties to take advantage of that.

Meanwhile, the protesters, who are supporters of the PDP, have continued to occupy the Port Harcourt office of INEC, insisting that they must be allowed to obtain the CTC of the governorship result.

One of the protesters, Chibuike Nwadike said they will not leave the area until they are allowed to collect the CTC.
