Atiku campaign group has reacted to the sealing of its office in Rivers.

Eko Hot Blog reports that the Special Assistant on Public Communications to the Atiku-Okowa Campaign Organisation, Phrank Shaibu has reacted to the sealing of the Port Harcourt Office of the campaign.

This online media platform recalls that the Governor of River State, Nyesom Wike had sealed the campaign office of Atiku Abubakar in GRA Port Harcourt using a court order.

According to Wike’s spokesman, Kelvin Ebiri, the sealing of the campaign office was in line with the directive of his principal that campaign offices should not be located in residential areas.

Reacting to the incident, Shaibu told Vanguard via a telephone chat that the matter was brought to the attention of the campaign.

Shaibu went philosophical as he said, “Let me say this, whether the cock crows or not, the sun will rise. Atiku Abubakar will be President by the Special grace of God.”

Wike had a few weeks ago signed Executive Order 22 which prohibits the citing of campaign offices by political parties in residential areas without government approval.

Local reports indicated that the State chapter of the PDP PCC had applied for approval from the state government but has been kept in the dark about whether or not the approval had been granted.
