Some aggrieved supporters of the All Progressive Congress, APC, have on Thursday barricaded the main entrance of the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC’s, headquarters in the state.

According to reports, the supporters are insisting that the Court of Appeal’s ruling ordering the relisting of their candidates for the coming polls must be obeyed by INEC.

Led by the APC’s southeast senatorial district’s candidate, Oji Ngofa, the protesters who carried several placards were said to chant, “No APC, no elections in Rivers State,”.

Edwin Enabor, the commission’s head of voter education and publicity, speaking to the protesters, said that Obo Effanga, the Resident Electoral Commission (REC) in the state, was yet to report to the office.

Ngofa and his protesting team maintained that they would remain at the spot until their protest letter personally gets to Effanga and then to INEC’s national boss, Professor Mahmood Yakubu.

Meanwhile a team of policemen had earlier on Thursday morning blocked the entrance to the Rivers State headquarters of the Independent National Electoral Commission in Port Harcourt.

The policemen had apart from cordoning off INEC office, mounted a roadblock on the lane close to the commission.

The early morning blockade was in connection with the planned protest of members of the All Progressives Congress in Rivers State over the exclusion of their candidates from the general election by court pronouncements.
