PDP Chairman Killed In Ebonyi

Gunmen suspected to be political thugs in the early hours of Saturday
killed Chairman of Peoples Democratic Party, PDP in Ishielu LGA in
Ebonyi State, Mr. Emeka Nworie.

Sources revealed that the late PDP chairman was attacked in his house
in Ezzagu in Ishielu LGA and shot severally by his assailant on
different parts of his body until he died.

Police spokesman, ASP Chris Anyanwu, confirmed the incident to our
reporter. He said the incident took place at around 3am in the morning
of Saturday.

He said the assailants, before killing the PDP stalwart, asked for
money which was generously given to them after which they still
proceeded to shoot him to death.

The state has witnessed politically motivated killings since last November.

Two persons were killed earlier in the week in Ikwo when supporters of
PDP and LP parties clashed.
