Former governor of Anambra state, Mr Peter Obi, has urged security agents to fish out those who attacked a former Central Bank Governor, Prof. Chukwuma Soludo, and killed three police orderlies attached to him.

CEOAFRICA had reported on Wednesday that the former CBN governor was attacked by unknown gunmen in his home town, Isiofia, in Aguata Local Government Area of the State.

The attack is coming a month after the former CBN Governor declared his intention to run in the Anambra State governorship election comes November 2021.

Reacting to the attack, Obi, the Peoples Democratic Party’s candidate for Vice President in the 2019 presidential election, said “political violence should have no place in the democratic process in Anambra State.”

He tweeted, “The reported attack on Prof Charles Soludo in which some security agents were killed stands condemned. Political violence should have no place in the democratic process in Anambra State. The Ballot and not the Bullet should determine the outcome of our elections.

“Meantime, security needs to be stepped up, and the culprits fished out and prosecuted to serve as deterrents to copycats.
