PDP & APC Supporters Clash In Rivers State. .

Reports have it that the clash would have been very deadly if not for the operatives of the Rivers State Police Command who were on board to advert the situation.

Over 2,000 supporters from both parties had surprisingly converged in the office of the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) along the Port Harcourt-Aba Expressway, protesting an alleged bias by the commission.

While the PDP supporters accused the Resident Electoral Commissioner , Mrs. Gecilla Khan, of planning to rig the forthcoming general election in favour of the APC , those of the APC were also alleging that Khan was doing the rigging to favour the PDP.

However,  armed policemen,  who were on the ground, had a hectic day trying to avoid the exchange of blows by supporters of both parties as some security operatives took positions in strategic points to avoid any form of invasion of the protesters into INEC's office.
