Ayodele OluwafemiSiminalayi Fubara, governor of Rivers, says people calling for emergency rule in the state were behind the failed dynamite explosion near the Hotel Presidential in Port Harcourt.
The Rivers governor alleged that the protesters attempted to detonate the dynamite so that the senators could support the call for the declaration of a state of emergency in Rivers. “So, there was an attempt to create a serious problem. In fact, there was a plan to detonate dynamite at the Hotel Presidential because you people were there.“But this God that we serve, it happened that the man who was trying to do it detonated it, but just a few seconds after, it blew his hands off.
