The Rivers State Working Committee of the All Progressives Congress (APC), led by Chief Emeka Beke, has issued a sharp rebuke to a group led by Tony Okocha, accusing them of impersonating the party and spreading false information.

In a press briefing on September 21st, 2024, the APC Committee referred to Okocha and his associates as “impersonators” and “children of Noah who intended to deceive and mislead their father,” emphasising the group’s history of fabricating information.

The statement specifically refers to a recent social media post by the group, which claimed to be making statements about “Gov Sim” (Governor Siminalayi Fubara) and certain judicial pronouncements.

The APC categorically denied the group’s right to speak on behalf of the party.

The statement concluded by urging the media to stop referring to Tony Okocha as the Rivers APC’s CTC (Campaign and Technical Committee) Chairman, given the ongoing court case against him.

It also warned the public not to believe any claims made by the group, referring to them as individuals suffering from “superficial sentimentalities” who do not represent the party’s views.
