The Rivers East Senatorial District caucus of the All Progressive Congress (APC) has mounted pressure on the former State commissioner of education, sports and currently chairman of Rivers State Senior Schools Board, Chief Allwell Onyesoh to run for Senatorial seat in 2019.
The Caucus, at a meeting today, Friday, in Port Harcourt, the State Capital, insisted that Onyesoh is the right man for the job to the satisfaction of the stakeholders in the Senatorial District. The meeting, which was also attended by the various leaders from the eight local government areas that made up Rivers East senatorial district, said that the marginalization of Etche Ethnic Nationality in representing the senatorial Seat is too huge for them to continue to bear, adding that what they need is for someone from Etche to be given the opportunity to adequately represent the them.
