He was reportedly attacked at a meeting in Ugwulangwu when he and other APC stakeholders attended a meeting to plan for their rally billed for this Friday.
It was alleged by eyewitneses and recounted by one of the survivors that one Ogbonnaya Ene Odii- a PDP ‘official’ thug leader and DC Coordinator who is said to have been notorious for political violence in Ohaozara led a group of fellow PDP thugs to unleash mayhem on him and 4 others while the rest fled.
They were reported to have used pump-action guns to hit their victims severally, wounding many and leaving them in their pool of blood.
