Members of the House of Representatives, Wednesday, asked the Inspector–General of Police, Solomon Arase, to swiftly begin investigation into the assassination of a traditional ruler in Enugu, Igwe Peter Onuh.
It would be recalled that DAILY POST had reported in July that the traditional ruler of Isienu Amofu, Igwe Peter Onuohu and three others were allegedly assassinated by unknown gunmen.
The call followed a motion raised by Chukwuemeka Ujam, {PDP, Enugu}
Ujam, while speaking on the motion, expressed worry that the assassination occurred without any form of resistance from security officials around the area while the unknown gunmen engaged in sporadic shooting for a long period of time, leaving scores injured.
“This dastardly act amount to a desecration of the traditional institution of the people of Isienu Amofu and reprisal attacks could be eminent.
“ If drastic measures are not employed, a repeat of this unfortunate incident is likely to occur”, Ujam said.
