The All Progressives Congress has called on the Presidents wife, Mrs. Patience Jonathan, to accept responsibility for the recent attack on its rally in Okrika Local Government Area.

Though, Okrika is the home town of the Presidents wife, her kinsmen have maintained that Mrs. Jonathan knew nothing about the shooting in Okrika, the led to the death of a policeman.

But the Rivers State Chairman of the APC, Dr. Davies Ikanya, said the Presidents wife should show remorse and apologise for her role in the incident.

Ikanya said, The All Progressives Congress (APC), Rivers State Chapter, has demanded that Dame Patience Jonathan, wife of President Goodluck Jonathan, should accept responsibility for the recent attack on the APC governorship campaign train while attempting to hold a rally in her local government of birth, Okrika.

Subsequent comments and utterances by the First Lady have removed any iota of doubt that she was one of the unseen hands behind the deadly attack and disruption of APCs campaign and the attempt on the life of our governorship candidate, Dr. Dakuku Peterside.

Sadly, Cpl. Ifeanyi Okorie, a police officer, providing security at the rally, was killed by the bullets fired by thugs acting on behalf of the First Lady and the Peoples Democratic Party, while a Senior Correspondent of Channels Television Mr. Charles Eruka, covering the rally, was stabbed and many APC supporters equally wounded.
