According to the SUNNEWSONLINE, a former Commissioner for Land and Survey, Anslem Ojezua, spoke in a viral video on the incident and said Police investigations have commenced to unravel those behind the attack.

“We had to suspend our campaign today. Today was supposed to be the final campaign stanza in Esan Central.

“We later got to hear that there was possible loss of lives. It was only wise and sensitive to suspend our campaign until when we are sure of what transpired,” he said.

The ICIR earlier reported that three persons sustained injuries after an explosion rocked a rally of the All Progressives Congress (APC) at Rumu-Woji playground in Port Harcourt on Thursday, January 19.

The ICIR gathered that two of the injured persons were women.

The victims were rushed to the hospital for medical attention.
