The violence after the swearing-in of the newly elected council chairmen led to the killing of a brother to Edison Ehie, Fubara’s Chief of Staff, the father of a newly elected councilor, and about three others.

Suspected thugs also attacked and set ablaze three local government secretariats after the policemen guarding the council premises withdrew their services, The Punch reports.

Reacting to the violence, Fubara’s special assistant on electronic media, Jerry Omatsogunwa, described those calling for the declaration of a state of emergency in Rivers as wicked people.

Omatsogunwa said there are problems in some Northern states but nobody has called for a state of emergency.

Is that not witchcraft? That is pure witchcraft. I think four states held an election on Saturday, the same time as the Rivers State election and those people have been sworn in, nobody has called for a state of emergency in those states.
‘’So far, out of the 26 states that were running caretaker before the Supreme Court came and gave that window of three months, nobody has called for a declaration of state of emergency in those states. That is so wicked, that is so barbaric and it’s not fit for modern-day society. The wickedness of the highest order.’’
