Soludo Condemns Assassination of Obosi Leader, Ike Okolo

The Anambra State Governor, Chukwuma Soludo, has condemned the assassination of Ike Okolo, the President General of the Obosi Community.

In a press statement by the Press Secretary to the governor, Christian Aburime, Soludo decried the incidents.

He said during the festive season, Anambra had enjoyed the best Christmas ever in decades as it was traffic-free with a new system of traffic control put in place by the government during the festive season with Anambra Youth Volunteers and the State traffic management agency working 24 hours at all the critical points to control traffic.

Okolo was Monday, gunned down in his car in the Obosi community by unidentified assailants.

There have been a number of cult-related attacks in the state in recent years, but they appear to have increased during the Yuletide season.
