Rivers State Governor, Nyesom Wike has alerted Nigerians over plots by the All Progressives Congress (APC)-led Federal Government to use a Lebanese, who has been directed to implicate him in arms procurement scandal ahead of the 2019 general elections.

Speaking during a Thanksgiving Service in honour of the Chairman of the State Local Government Service Commission, Azubuike Nmerukini in Port Harcourt, Governor Wike said the APC Federal Government has entered a devious mode, where it believes that framing opponents will enhance its political fortunes.

Speaking further, Governor Wike stated that the Federal Government is also planning to sponsor crisis in the State ahead of the 2019 elections, for the exercise to be postponed.

He said the target is to use security agencies for rigging purposes.

Governor Wike said that most of the kidnappings and armed robbery in Rivers State are masterminded by SARS operatives under the leadership of Akin Fakorede

He said that the arrest and detention of the SARS Operatives prove their involvement in criminality against the people of the state.
