Rivers State University Professor of Public Law, Ritchard Wokocha, has described recent political developments in the state as a potential opportunity for peace and unity.
He made the remarks in an interview on Channels TV Sunrise Daily, as monitored by DAILY POST.
Professor Wokocha noted that while political unity in the state has been somewhat “frozen,” it is not completely absent.
“It resembles more of an alliance and we cannot rule out the participation of key figures, including the federal minister,” he explained.
He added that recent moves indicate that certain political actors and their supporters have decided to align themselves with the President by joining his party.
Wokocha suggested that when other government members make similar moves, it is likely they will begin expressing themselves in similar terms.
“This development signifies a real opportunity for peace and unity in Rivers State,” he said.
“Currently, the various segments of the political scene, which have previously been sources of drama, are not aligned under one side and now show allegiance to one leader, the President. We should expect less negative drama than in the past.”
