Gov. Wike seeks U.S., China help as tension mounts
Tension continues to mount in Rivers State, as the oil-rich state prepares for re-run elections for Senate, House of Representatives, and state House of Assembly, this weekend.
Rivers, once a hotspot of the Niger-Delta crisis, has witnessed brutal politically linked killings, including beheadings, in the past few months.
The All Progressives Congress says its members were targets of the killings which it blames the Rivers government and the ruling Peoples Democratic Party for.
The state government denies, saying the assassinations were carried out by cult groups fighting for supremacy.
