Alhaji Atiku Abubakar and Shehu Sani, leaders of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), have denounced the thugs’ attack on Senator Ifeanyi Ubah’s convoy on Sunday.
According to an earlier report by Anaedoonline.ng, on September 11, unidentified gunmen ambushed the senator who represents the Anambra South Senatorial District in the 9th National Assembly.
Yesterday’s attack on the Enugwu-Ukwu route in Anambra State apparently resulted in the deaths of several of the politician’s supporters, including security personnel, and numerous injuries.
