Ifeanyi Ubah

The Minister of Labour and Employment, Sen. Chris Ngige has condemned the recent  attack on Sen. Ifeanyi Ubah that claimed the lives of some of his aides and security agents.

Ngige said this in a statement signed by his Media Office and made available to newsmen on Wednesday in Abuja.

He described the attack as “atrocious, wicked and evil”, saying that it was a big setback to a relative calm restored to the state in the past few months.

He urged the security agencies to ”hunt down and bring the murderous perpetrators to justice.”

According to him, ”it was certainly a setback at a time  many had thought  reprieve has come from the dreadful darkness that lately enveloped our dear state.

“However, we must not allow that  daylight horror to trip  our determination to the cross-hair of another  cycle  of tragedies. Evil must not win.

“Hence, i charge the security agencies to double efforts to fish out the criminals  as quickly as possible .

“Ndi-Anambra must not succumb to fear but rally round the  government and the security agencies to track the  criminals terrorising our state, ’’he said.

Ngige aslo extended his deepest condolences to Uba over the huge losses.

He added: ” I  thank God Almighty for sparing his life while also praying  for His mercy on the families of his aides and security agents who lost their lives.”
