Refrain From Making A Banquet Of Soludo’s Ordeal, Anambra Government tells Politicians

Sequel to attack the attack on Ex Gov of CBN Governor, Anambra State Government has warned politicians and their cronies to desist from making a banquet of Professor Soludo’s recent tragic experience in his country home Isuofia.

The warning which is contained in a press statement signed by the Commissioner for Information and Public Enlightenment  Mr. C. Don Adinuba,

is coming on the heels of a plethora of statements on the tragedy shunned out by agents of politicians on the social media whose contents does not truly reflect the tragic experience of the former CBN governor nor portrayed any empathy for the slain police officers or their families.

The statement reads, “The Anambra State Government has maintained careful and dignified silence on the tragedy which occurred in Isuofia, Aguata Local Government Area, on March 31 when a group of armed young men invaded the premises of the town’s Civic Centre where Professor Chukwuma Soludo, a former Governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria and a leading APGA aspirant in the forthcoming gubernatorial election in Anambra State, was holding talks with the youth of the area.

“Three policemen providing security at the venue were killed in cold blood and the Anambra State Commissioner for Public Utilities, Mr Emeka Ezenwanne, an engineer and indigene of the town, whisked away by the gunmen.

“We have refrained from making a public statement because the tragedy of this proportion was not known in the state in the last seven years when the state achieved its deserving status as Nigeria’s safest and most peaceful state. The government has been preoccupied with how to rescue Mr Ezenwanne, bring the perpetrators of the tragedy to justice and ensure that nothing like this happens again in our state.
