Senator Ubah survived after his bulletproof car was riddled with bullets, but he lost three police escorts and three aides during the ambush on Sunday evening.

Reacting on his Twitter page, Peter Obi extended his condolence to the lawmaker and those who lost their lives in the incident, saying that the attack is “condemnable and unacceptable.”

The former Anambra governor also called for the immediate arrest of the perpetrators of criminal activities using machinery available to the Nigerian government.

He said, ”I deeply commiserate with my brother, Senator @Dr_IfeanyiUbah, and extend my heartfelt condolences to the families of those who lost their loved ones in this ugly incident.

”The attack is condemnable and unacceptable. I hereby re-emphasise the urgent need for enhanced security of lives and property in society. I have continued to lay emphasis on the urgent need for enhanced security and protection of life and property in our society.

”Those who engage in these dastardly acts should be fished out swiftly using all machinery available to government, and promptly punished in accordance with our laws.”

Peter Obi, therefore, urged the federal and state governments to strenuously strive to curb the menace of insecurity in the country.

KanyiDaily recalls that Anambra State Governor, Charles Soludo had also condemned the attack, vowing to fish out the perpetrators to face the full wrath of the law.
