Buildings and other property were shattered in the early hours of Saturday as explosives suspected to be dynamite shattered the secretariat of the All Progressives Congress along Aba Road in Port Harcourt, Rivers State capital.
The explosion brought down the gate of the secretariat while doors, windows and other property were destroyed.
This is the second time the Chief Tony Okocha-led APC would be experiencing such an attack at its secretariat this year.
This came as the local government elections is set to hold in the state today as the Rivers State Independent Electoral Commission said on Friday that all sensitive materials have been distributed to the various local government areas.
A video of the incident has since gone viral on social media.
An explosion has occurred at the factional Secretariat of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Rivers State.
