A Chieftain of the All Progressives Congress in Rivers State, and an aspirant for the governorship position in the coming 2023 poll, Prince Tonye Princewill, yesterday, divinely escaped assassination attempt as gunmen attacked his residence.
In a statement issued personally by Prince Tonye Princewill, who is on consultative tour of most Emirate Councils in the Northern Nigeria with his Principal, Rr. Hon. Chibuike Rotimi Amaechi seeking support for the presidential bid of the incumbent Minister of Transportation, he stated thus, “can confirm that in the early hours of this morning my house was broken into.
“The target was clearly me, as the intruders headed straight for what they thought was my room, broke in and met my absence. Nothing of value was taken, except the hard drive of the CCTV recorder, which leads me to conclude, they had only one objective; my elimination.”
“I want to thank God that the devil is a liar and His children will always be protected. Thankfully I am well and nobody in my household was hurt, but this is a stark reminder that the 2023 political season has started and those who cannot win on the field, will seek other ways to attain power.
“It may have worked in the past, but not here and not now.”
