Unknown gunmen have killed and burnt the senatorial candidate of the Labour Party for Enugu East Senatorial District, Mr Oyibo Chukwu.

The gunmen also killed five supporters who were with him inside his car.

The PUNCH gathered that the incident happened at Amechi Awkunanaw, Enugu South Local Government Area on Wednesday evening.

The governorship candidate of the Labour Party, Chijioke Edeoga, who confirmed the unfortunate incident, said that the gunmen shot him inside his vehicle with five other people with him and set the car ablaze.

“It is true that our senatorial candidate for Enugu East senatorial district for Saturday’s election has been killed. They (gunmen) shot him and five others and set them ablaze.

Herdsmen kill one in Enugu, police begin probe
“Our party members are being targeted for assassination by political parties that felt threatened by the rise of the Labour Party in the state and are afraid they may lose the Saturday’s election.”

It would be recalled that the Labour Party campaigns and political activities had been attacked on several occasions.


Several members and supporters of the party had been injured and property worth millions destroyed by gunmen believed to be working for the ruling party in the state.

Meanwhile, efforts to get reaction from the Enugu State Police Command were unsuccessful as the command’s spokesman, DSP Daniel Ndukwe, could not be reached at the time of filing this report.

"Several members and supporters of the party had been injured and property worth millions destroyed by gunmen believed to be working for the ruling party in the state."


O ga o. This is really sad. As in, kill him and burnt his corpse because of politics or something else? But Enugu state is PDP and in all the different parties are some Igbo folks. Why kill one another and destroy one anothet's properties just to serve your homeland?

I hope and pray his family will be consoled and compensated.
This is why Lp followers should stop cursing, insulting and wishing bad luck upon sane Nigerians who rejected their candidates and mushroom party.

The deceased was never at any point reported to have spoken against the unruly and unpatriotic manner lp supporters insult and curse sane Nigerians now he is no longer able to speak against them and call them to order.

May no nation on earth ever experience the kind of uncouth mob Mr Obi and his party unleashed on our democracy. Haba!

Not even moderate and decent members of the clergy were spared of insults and attacks by Mr Obi's followers. smh

O ga o

Tinubu's handiwork. Chimaroke will hear from us

This is sad.

It must be said that a lot of Igbos supported this madness by a terrorist group who insisted they must be given referendum or no election.

They even despised Buhari for getting Nnamdi Kanu in Kenya, and celebrated that his disciple, Simon Ekpa, is more brutal and was killing Igbo efulefus and Nigerian security officers.

These same Igbos are now condemning Buhari for not finding a means to eliminate Simon Ekpa in Finland, who has remained resolute with the same mission of no election that many supported then.

Is it that they want the same Buhari who they have previously reported to UN, EU, USA, FIFA and Twitter, to now become the dictator they accused him of, while betraying themselves as the very people without regard for the human rights of others?

US and UN go just dey laugh at the ever lamenting hypocrites of Nigeria who are always fighting for selective human rights.

Shame on these people who are driven by hatred and a never ending tribal agenda.

They have killed many Igbos and claimed they were warned to obey the sit at home, but they are now claiming the sit at home should no longer be obeyed?

Am I the only one who thinks the hypocrisy of these people stink to the depths of hell?

Igbos, we warned you about how the North embraced boko haram and still suffer for their folly till today. Now you are suffering for being stubborn and refusing to learn from the mistake of others.

If any charlatan Kanu out there can come out and claim he is speaking for Igbos and Nigeria must bend to his own will, what is stopping any charlatan ogbonna out there from claiming the same for his own demands on behalf of same Igbos?

We warned, but you called us unity beggers from the zoo. Now you are begging us to vote you as President of the zoo.

You have let your perpetual hatred and envy lead to your self destruction.

I will tell my children the tale of a foolish people who killed their own so that a Buhari who transformed to Jubril el Sudani will feel pain in Aso Rock.

A foolish people who were emotionally raped by the likes of FFK, Reno Omokri, Shehu Sani to achieve their own objectives by exploiting their weakness of hatred, and have now abandoned them like a carcass.

I will advise you the same way you lot were advising sensible Igbos.

1. Only an efulefu will vote or campaign in the zoo elections.
2. Only a one-nigerianist fool will believe Nigeria security will protect him when IPOB/Autopilots have declared a sit at home.

Gidgiddy and other terrorist sympathizers, I congratulate you on the successful destruction of human rights and human life in Igbo land.

But not before the disgrace of February 25th that Nigerian "unity beggars" will inflict on the self destructing terrorists who are unwise men from the East.

Ogbuefi2020:

Tinubu's handiwork. Chimaroke will hear from us

See this self destructive ostrich, now looking for who to blame.

He did not blame Tinubu when Kanu was preaching hate on radio.

He did not blame Tinubu when Kanu declared "No Referendum No Election".

He did not blame Tinubu when Kanu promised anarchy and death of security personnel.

He did not blame Tinubu when Simon Ekpa came on the scene and promised to actualize the plans of Kanu.

But he wants to blame Tinubu for the actualization of the Somalia situation that has been inflicted on the SouthEast by Igbos.

Shame on these people and all those who support them.

They are on top of the situation, let everybody go about their daily activities without fear. Naija police?






We learn everyday

Army battalions were drafted to Lagos since last week. Why didn't the federal government also draft same Army battalions to the east.

Throwback:
Sad

Thuggery and assassination is history In the state until Chimaroke started romancing Tinubu

They are now using the cover of unknown Gunmen to take out opponents and perceived enemies

Throwback:


See this self destructive ostrich, now looking for who to blame.

Wike and Chimaroke became violent immediately after allying with Tinubu

Chimaroke I was wrong when I thought you have changed from killing political opponents..same man that is bossom friend with another killer tinubu

Ogbuefi2020:

Wike and Chimaroke became violent immediately after allying with Tinubu

Shame on you for destroying your own land so Buhari will feel pain while you plan yo blame Tinubu.

You have killed your own people to achieve what exactly?

Now an efulefu Igbo man is vigorously contesting the zoo elections.

Poetic Justice!

aariwa:
Chimaroke I was wrong when I thought you have changed from killing political opponents..same man that is bossom friend with another killer tinubu

His killing instinct resurrected immediately after allying with fellow killer, Tinubu

Chimaroke has assassinated his opponent🤦.

But Labour Party will still win that senatorial district and we will nominate a candidate to fill the already won seat.

Shame to Chimaroke and his thugs.

Like Chimaroke like Tinubu like Wike.

No wonder they are in same camp.

This is terrible. Bokoharam and ISWAP are now child play compare to IPOB/ESN. We warned easterners against supporting Nnamidi kanu activities but they refused.

All the people killed in Anambra with Abuja plate number why didn't they reveal their identity? Tinubu's assassins will be exposed soon

satelliteDISH:

You want Igbos to lament that they are being intimidated with military forces?

You want Kanu's henchmen to continue killing security forces who enter into "Biafra" as promised by the terrorist?

Let them self destruct.

Penguin2:

Shame to Chimaroke and his thugs.

Like Chimaroke like Tinubu like Wike.

No wonder they are in same camp.

Wonders will never cease.

Who would have thought a day will come when an Igbo tribalist would disparage their wicked Wike and Chimaroke Nnamani, because of Tinubu?

If you like hide your parents voters card because they will vote Tinubu, then later cry to UN and US that Igbos were disenfranchised from voting.

Shameless thing.

just like that.
another set of unsolved murders

FreeStuffsNG:
O ga o. This is really sad. As in, kill him and burnt his corpse because of politics or something else?

I hope and pray his family will be consoled and compensated.
This is why Lp followers should stop cursing, insulting and wishing bad luck upon sane Nigerians who rejected their candidates and mushroom party.

The deceased was never at any point reported to have spoken against the unruly and unpatriotic manner lp supporters insult and curse sane Nigerians now he is no longer able to speak against them and call them to order.

May no nation on earth ever experience the kind of uncouth mob Mr Obi and his party unleashed on our democracy. Haba!

Not even moderate and decent members of the clergy were spared of insults and attacks by Mr Obi's followers. smh

Are you justifying the killing? You see why that killing can be traced to yorubaland? Because you fielded bad product and try to force him on people and it was rejected you became hurt and accuse your opponent of "insult" and resort to killings? Insults and counter insult are normal in SE politics but assassination and thuggery is a no no, it's yoruba thing

And somebody will be crying for kanu to be released. The seed he planted has grown even beyound what he can even handle even if he is released. See where kanu and members hatred of Buhari has come back to hunt the people that once celebrated Ipob/esn. Fullani kanu was shouting while he established terrorist group never killed up to number of Igbos Ipob/esn has killed. To Ipob/esn now, they are proving superiority, threatening people and warning government that election will not hold in biafraland. Is it by killing or intimidating your people before you can prove a point? May God heal the land and comfort families of those that kanu-self inflicted biafra wahala has killed

Shameless thing.

Hidden PVC in Nnewi is being distributed now. Your evil machinations will be defeated. Chimaroke and Wike has been empowered to assassinate by Tinubu but they will fail

This is not unknown gun men, this is Chimaroke Nnamani the PDP Senator candidate working for Asiwaju. God will bring him to justice very soon

Tinubu will be exposed. Why did they hide the identity of all the gunmen killed in Anambra? Kanu's ESN has flushed out fulanis herders

Top 10 states by PVC registrations: Listed below are the top ten Nigerian states where many of the 93,469,008 registered voters are –

Lagos: 7,060,195
Kano: 5,921,370
Kaduna: 4,335,208
Rivers: 3,537,190
Katsina: 3,4516,719
Oyo: 3,276,765
Bauchi: 2,749,268
Plateau: 2,789,528
Benue: 2,777,727
Niger: 2,698,344
Enugu state is not even in the top 10 states with highest registered voters.

I doubt if you read the report. It is an internal power struggle. If it is national, by now Lagos state and Kano state with about 7m registered voters, highest voting states, should by now be up in flames niyen.


" Several members and supporters of the (LP) party had been injured and property worth millions destroyed by gunmen believed to be working for the ruling party (PDP) in the state.

Thesame self denial that has turned east to Afghanistan. You are so daft by politicising everything. The killing started before election and will not end after the election.

dinachi:

This is not unknown gun men, this is Chimaroke Nnamani the PDP Senator candidate working for Asiwaju. God will bring him to justice very soon

Tinubu's evil in the east will be exposed and he will fail. Peter Obi aborted his flight to Ogoni after Wike declared that he cannot guarantee his security
