Akwa Ibom State While Rivers Has the Most Obvious Drop in Campaign Activity Compared to Earlier Periods
NIGER DELTA WATCH 2019 A citizen-led election observation project Report: Niger Delta Watch 2019 #5 Report published: 14 January 2019 Report period: 17 December 2018 – 06 January 2019 Summary This is the fifth edition of Niger Delta Watch 2019. Across the region the electoral campaigns appear to be less intense and with fewer resources than in the same period in 2011 and 2015. There is some variability to this, with more visible campaigning in Akwa Ibom State while Rivers has the most obvious drop in campaign activity compared to earlier periods. Akwa Ibom also had the most obvious incidents of political violence with one APC youth leader attacked and abducted for his activities while a PDP leader had his house burnt down. There were also reports of a clash between APC and PDP supporters where allegations of injury to Aman Nkanga indicate how swiftly incidents can escalate to impact on nationally relevant figures – Nkanga is the younger brother of Idongesit Nkanga, the present chairman of PANDEF, a high-level Niger Delta group engaging with the Federal Government on regional grievances and development demands. Rivers had two deaths over Christmas that seem to continue the mix of gang and political violence. Incidents of violence have been sporadic and limited but with background concerns persisting about the neutrality of security services and violence immediately around the elections. On December 18 Bayelsa welcomed yet another Police Commissioner, Joseph Mukan, who is technically the ninth Commissioner in the four months since the problem of revolving commissioners began. The highest profile issue regionally over the past week was the Federal High Court in Rivers adding to the prior state court ruling on the ongoing case of the APC primaries, this time explicitly ruling that neither faction of the APC has candidates for the 2019 elections and issuing an injunction against INEC. -
