Sen Ifeanyi Ubah
By PAMELA EBOH, Awka
Former Senator representing Anambra South Senatorial zone, and former governorship candidate of All Progressives Congress (APC) in Anambra State, Senator Andy Uba, has strongly condemned the attack of the convoy of the Senator representing Anambra South Senatorial Zone, Dr. Ifeanyi Uba, at Nkwo market Enugu-Ukwu in Njikoka Local Government Area of Anambra State on Sunday night.
In a press release signed by Senator Uba and made available to journalists in Awka, the former lawmaker described the attack as barbaric, alien to Igbo culture and also uncalled for.
He said: “The news came to me as a shock and I sincerely condemn the horrific attack. These attacks are uncalled for and it’s alien to Igbo culture to maim and kill humans.
“I commiserate with my brother and friend, Distinguished Sen. Ifeanyi Ubah and the families of his aides that lost their lives yesterday (Sunday) in Enugwu-ukwu, Njikoka Local government Area of Anambra State.”
Andy Uba called on the State Governor, Prof Chukwuma Soludo, to do everything possible to fish out the killers behind the attack.
“I urge the Government to do the needful in bringing total peaceful sanity to our dear Anambra State. My thoughts and prayers are with you and the families of the victims,” Uba said.
