The statement said, “Friday, April 27, 2018, Distinguished Senator Matthew Urhoghide in the presence of Gov Godwin Obaseki was attacked by APC led government sponsored thugs as he disembarked from the plane that brought him from Abuja. “Arising from the ugly event at the airport, it is now obvious that the APC at state and federal level are fast losing grip in the act of governance. In their desperate efforts to cling on to power, they have resorted to state sponsored hooliganism. “Senator Urhoghide cannot be cowed, intimidated or harassed. He will continue to carry out his constitutionally assigned role as a Senator of the Federal Republic of Nigeria.
