The Coalition of United Political Parties has condemned the attempt on the life of its National Spokesman, Ikenga Ugochinyere, and urged security agencies to swing into action and arrest the attackers.
“We state unequivocally that we are holding the government of Imo state solely responsible for this heinous crime and demand the immediate arrest of Mr. Chinasa, whose threats against Ikenga Imo Ugochinyere is already in the public domain, and the Police authorities are aware of this but did nothing on the threats until he succeeded in carrying out his dastardly threats.
CUPP also alleged that the exit roads out of the Akwokwa community had been placed under surveillance to ensure his assassination.
