    President Bola Tinubu who is observing his leave in the United Kingdom has reacted to the just concluded local government elections in Rivers State.

    DAILY POST recalls that the APP backed by Fubara cleared all 23 local council elections in the state, prompting the governor to inuagurate them on Sunday.

    But reacting to unfolding tensions following last Saturday’s local government council election, the President expressed deep concern over reports of arson and explosions in the state.

    According to Tinubu all political actors have to de-escalate the situation and discourage their supporters from engaging in violence or destructive actions.

    Tinubu also instructed the police to move in and restore, maintain peace, law, and order immediately.

    The President who spoke through his media aide, Bayo Onanuga on Monday, also instructed law enforcement agencies to bring the situation under control, he emphasised the need to ensure the security of public institutions.

    He warned that government facilities built with public funds must be safeguarded from vandalism.

    He stressed that self-help has no place in a democratic system, especially after 25 years of continuous democracy.

    According to President Tinubu, the judiciary can settle all political disputes, and the outcome of this election should be no exception.
