OpenLife Nigeria reports that a former Minister of Transport, Dr. Abiye Sekibo who currently serves as the Director-General of the Peoples Democratic Party Presidential Campaign Council in Rivers State, escaped assassination by the whiskers on Thursday midnight.
It was learnt that gunmen dressed in police uniform opened fire on Sekibo’s vehicle, a Land Cruiser bulletproof jeep at the Rainbow Town in Port Harcourt, where he went to inspect the venue of a proposed presidential rally of the party.
Confirming the incident at a news briefing Friday, Sekibo said his car was riddled with bullets and the venue of the proposed rally set on fire, while policemen watched the inferno.
“As we approached the site, those policemen who were watching the inferno opened fire on our vehicle. I looked at the Hilux vehicles, they were police Hilux vehicles attached to the governor of Rivers State.”
