The Chief of Staff to the Rivers State governor, Chief Emeka Woke, has described the allegation by Senator Lee Maeba, that his life is under threat, as a spurious tale concorted by a deranged mind.

Recall that Senator Maeba, had on Saturday in Punch newspaper fictitiously alleged that a meeting was held at the Government House, Port Harcourt to clampdown on him and others. 

The Chief of Staff refuted the allegation on Saturday at Opobo town, the headquarters of Opobo/Nkoro Local Government Area during the grand finale of the state-wide Grassroots Development Initiative (GDI) Permanent Voters' Card (PVC) collection sensitisation rally.

Woke stated categorically that there is no such plan to clampdown or eliminate any person in the State, as such character is not in the DNA of the present administration. 

He urged those who are not popular and vast in grassroot politics, to leave it for those who know the game, rather than making frivolous claims.

He said: "On my way here, I read from Punch newspaper, one man that is unable to come home, called Ledogo, saying he will not come home again to campaign for PDP presidential candidate. He said the reason that he will not come was because I held a meeting in Government House that anything day comes to Rivers State, he should be killed.

"My brothers, such thing did not happen and it will not happen. Any person that cannot come to Rivers State should look for a better excuse and not killing excuse."

"This government, we don't kill anybody. We have never and will never kill anybody. Please if you don't have strength, tell your people that you don't have strength."
