The Rivers State chapter of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, says its earlier and persistent alarm on the looting spree and other illegal activities by the out-going Governor Amaechi, his family members, particularly, his wife, Judith, and aides in the Government House and other government institutions has again been justified.
The PDP, commending the men and officers of the Rivers State Command of the Nigerian Police, who intercepted the truck carrying looted items from the Government House, Port Harcourt yesterday, Sunday, May 10, 2015, says it is unhappy over this illegal and criminal development which seems unabated and unchecked thereby allowing the perpetrators to have a field day looting State-owned facilities and huge funds.
The Party considers its position vindicated with the latest seizure of a Toyota Camry Car with Registration Number: KRK 340 AA, belonging to one Mr. Chant, which was used in escorting a Mercedes Benz Truck with Registration Number: LA 086 MA, carrying several items from the Rivers State Government House, Port Harcourt, on Sunday, May 10, 2015, at about 7pm.
Items looted and moved out under the instruction of the out-going Governor (Amaechi) in the truck include, among others, three big Safe containing large sums of money, domestic utensils, sound-proof generators, computers, fridges, foreign furniture, electrical and electronic gadgets etc.
The PDP describes this looting galore by Gov Amaechi and family members as capable of wrecking the State and the people, calling on the security agencies and the people to be proactive and rise against this unholy act before it gets out of hand.
The PDP calls on Gov Amaechi, his Wife (Judith) and all officials of the out-going APC government to search their conscience, and desist from running the State aground before leaving office, saying its eyes are open on checkmating their activities until the final whistle is blown on May 29, 2015, when a new government will certainly be formed in the State.
