The Anambra state police commissioner, Monday Kuryas, has said that the former governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria and Anambra state governorship aspirant, Charles Soludo is safe, IgbereTV reports.

Soludo was attacked during a rally he was holding in Isuofia community in Aguata Local Government Area of the state. Unknown gunmen stormed the venue, shooting sporadically into the air, killing three of the security details of the ex-CBN governor.

In an interview with Channels TV, the state police boss, Monday Kuryas, said Mr. Soludo is safe. He, however, disclosed that the state Commissioner for Public Utilities, Emeka Ezenwanne, was abducted by the gunmen.

Kuryas said;

''The former CBN governor was holding a townhall meeting with the youths of his community called Isuofia in Aguata local government area of the state.

Suddenly, unknown gunmen attacked my men that were providing security for him. In the exchange of fire, three of my men were killed but the Professor is safe.

However, the Commisioner for Public Utilities, Engr Emeka Ezenwanne, was abducted in the process and my men are on the heels of the abductors."

Anambrains, do not kill your great men because of politics. You have got great men in various political parties that could take the state to a great level. From Dr Maduka to Chief Soludo to the former transcop Chief and many others. Let the best man win.

Mr Commmissioner of Police, so the dead ones are of no importance to you than Charlse Soludo.

But the officers are gone sadly.

Thereafter,they would say the attackers were Fulani's herders.

Charles Soludois the one paying him so he's more important than the slain officers.

The jungle for you !

Time for non Igbos to leave the east with immediate effect

The presence of Prof Chukwuma Soludo in this election race is a big threat to some illiterates who are desperate to rule Anambra state. Anambra will not be ruled by illiterates or debtors. Only the best for Anambra is good enough.

Shame on APC, you have failed.

3 police officers were killed and one person was kidnapped and yet the only thing thw police came out to say is dat Soludo is safe??

Its a pity the security guys just died like that and hurriedly forgotten

It's obvious that Prof Soludo was the target of the assasination attempt, the assassins had to kill his security first in order to get to him. The police is not unaware of the efforts of those gallant officers but the police have to reassure the public that the prime target of the killings is safe which sends a positive vibe in this unfortunate situation. But one thing I am sure of is that the blood of those slain police officers will not let the killers rest until they are caught and after they have confessed who sponsored them on the mission, they will be taken to Awkuzu Sars for justice to be served.
