Members of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Rivers State protested at the INEC office on Monday, demanding joint inspection of election results and Certified True Copies of result sheets for the recently concluded 2023 general elections.

Protesters obstruct both the waterlines and GRA areas of Aba road, which serve as major access points to the INEC headquarters. No cars were able to drive through that stretch of Aba road from the ground lanes, and those on the GRA flypast are trapped due to a lack of an exit route.

The protest was led by the Deputy Speaker of the Rivers State House of Assembly, Edison Ehie who was re-elected in the March 18 election and Samuel Nwanosike, the Chairman of the Ikwerre Local Government Area.
