365Daily – Some of the assailants of Senator Ifeanyi Ubah have been arrested, while security agents are on the trail of the remaining culprits.
This was disclosed by the Governor of Anambra State, Chukwuma Soludo, on Friday, October 21, 2022, in Enugwu-Ukwu in Njikoka Local Government Area of the state.
Ubah and his convoy were attacked by gunmen in Enugwu-Ukwu about a month ago, leading to the loss of four security aides and two personal assistants of the Senator.
He was able to escape because he was in a bullet-proof vehicle.
Speaking while on a condolence visit to the member representing Njikoka/Dunukofia/Anaocha Federal Constituency in the House of Representatives, Hon. Dozie Nwankwo, who recently buried his father, Pa Boniface Nwankwo, the Governor said security operatives were on the trail of other members of the gang who were still at large.
Soludo said: “Three weeks ago, it was in this same community that some elements chose to attack Senator Ifeanyi Ubah. I want to tell you that we have arrested a number of those involved in that attack. We are still on the trail of the remaining people.
“We will not let people like that define who we are. This is Anambra State, and we are peaceful people. We must embrace peace, even in the coming election. Anambra is peaceful, Anambra is safe.
“We have chased away bad elements in the state. The pockets of crime you hear of are just a small number of the bad elements left. They will not disappear in one night, even in civilised places, they are still few bad elements.”
