The Federal Capital Territory Police Command has launched an investigation into the attempted assassination of Jude Ezenwafor, the Peoples Democratic Party candidate for the upcoming Anambra State governorship election slated for November 25.
Ezenwafor was reportedly attacked and shot by unidentified gunmen in the Wuse 2 area of Abuja while he was on his way back from an engagement.
Providing an update on the incident, the FCT Police Command’s spokesperson, Josephine Adeh, stated that investigations into the attack are still ongoing and have not yet reached a definitive conclusion.
Adeh stated, “The police command has yet to conclude investigations as to the true position and situation surrounding the incident.
“While investigation is currently at top gear, individuals or persons with relevant information are advised to come forward and report to the nearest police station.
“Your cooperation will greatly assist our investigation and help ensure justice is served,” the statement read in part.
The police have urged members of the public to assist with any useful information that could aid in the ongoing probe.
