The All Progressives Congress (APC) yesterday mocked Governor Seriake Dickson over alleged false claim on the killing of a Naval Rating during the conduct of the State House of Assembly election in the state.
The PDP and Governor Seriake Dickson had weekend accused purported thugs allegedly hired by the All Progressives Congress (APC) of killing a Naval Rating who was on election duty in Brass Island of Brass local government area of the state.
But the authority of the Central Naval Command of the Nigerian Navy debunked the claim insisting that the recent death of one of its personnel on Brass Island had nothing to do with last Saturday’s elections.

The Navy authorities revealed that the naval rating was on escort duty onboard a ship at the sea. The ship unfortunately came under attack offshore Brass, and he suffered a gunshot wound. He later died in a hospital in Twon-Brass.
The APC, in a statement issued by its state publicity secretary, Doifie Buokoribo, mocked the PDP and Governor Seriake Dickson, describing them as pathetic liars.
According to the APC, “We have had cause to caution the unsuspecting public to take whatever comes from the mouth of the dying PDP in the state and Governor Dickson with a grain of salt. Governor Dickson and his party are pathetic liars. They have lied before. They are lying. They will continue to lie to cover their desperation, fear and ineptitude. No government can survive on the basis of lies, fake news.
“Now that their latest lie has proven to be a cruel hoax, we expect the PDP and Governor Dickson to have the courage to apologise for shamefully misleading the public, raising a false alarm, and spreading rumour. But we know they will not. The governor and his party are shameless. Of course, the people now know better.”
