A bomb blast reportedly hit the Ahoada High Court, Rivers State today.
A statement by Rivers State Chapter of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP confirmed the incident .

According to reports, the bombing of the court where Justice Charles N. Wali usually holds court, occurred on Monday morning a few hours before a politically charged suit against Hon Evans Bipi,
who has been unlawfully parading himself as the Speaker of the Rivers State House of Assembly.

Justice Wali had about a month ago ordered Bipi to stop parading himself as Speaker of the House as the tussle over control of the state government between loyalists of the Presidency and the Rivers State Governor, Mr. Rotimi Amaechi, lingers with an end in sight.
No casualties have been reported yet over the bombing.
