Chris Emeka Azubogu, House of Representatives member representing Nnewi North, Nnewi South and Ekwusigo federal constituency has mourned the unfortunate death of one of his drivers while also calling on the security agencies to beef up security around the Southeast, particularly in Anambra State, as the security challenges are becoming very threatening.
About 3.30 pm on Thursday, Unknown Gunmen attacked his convoy, killing one of the drivers and injuring another.
The lawmaker was not in the convoy at the time of the attack, neither has it been ascertained yet that it was premeditated.
“My heart bleeds for the loss of one of my drivers and my sympathy is with the family. On same hand, I am calling on security agencies to step up their game” he said in a statement through his media office.
“We can no longer treat the issue of security in Anambra State at this critical time with kid gloves. People responsible for wasting the lives of innocent citizens should not be given room to achieve their devilish acts.”
