Ubah:Soludo condemns attack, vows to ensure justice

Professor Chukwuma Soludo of Anambra State has condemned the attack against Senator Ifeanyi Ubah’s convoy.

He also sympathized with the families of the dead victims.

These statements were made by the governor in a statement that was signed Monday by Christian Aburime (his Press Secretary).

On Sunday, the Senator representing Anambra South Senatorial Zone at Red Chamber was attacked and nearly killed by yet-to-be-identified assailants.

It occurred in Njikoka Local Government Area, Anambra State.

Soludo condemned the attack but stated that the government was determined to eradicate all criminality within the state.

He noted, "This is the last ditched-effort of a sinking boat by these criminal elements."

He assured that all security agencies are now on full alert to fish out the perpetrators of the attack and be made to face the full wrath of the law.

The statement read, “It was reported on Sunday evening that Dr. Ifeanyi Ubah narrowly escaped bullets of some gun-wielding men who attacked his convoy at Enugwu-Ukwu road in Njikoka Local Government Area of Anambra State.

“The government is fully determined to wipe out every act of criminality in the state. This is the last ditched effort of a sinking boat by these criminal elements.

“All security agencies are now on full alert to fish out the perpetrators of this heinous attack, who will be made to face the full wrath of the law.

“The governor also commiserates with Dr. Ifeanyi Ubah and families of his aides who lost their lives as well as the State Commissioner of Police, for the policemen who also lost their lives.”
