Ifeanyi Ubah would have been killed by assassins if not for his bulletproof jeep - Spokesperson says

A spokesperson has said that Ifeanyi Ubah's bulletproof SUV is what saved him from being killed alongside his aides when gunmen attacked his convoy.

Mr Kameh Ogbonna, media aide to Senator Ifeanyi Ubah, representing Anambra South Senatorial District at the upper chamber, said: "If not for the bulletproof jeep the senator was riding in, he would have been dead by now.

"We were passing Enugwu Ukwu junction when they hit us from all sides and as I speak with you Obum, the special aide to the senator is dead.

"About seven security operatives were hit by the assassins' bullet."

Andy Ubah's convoy was attacked in Enugwu Ukwu, Anambra State, on Sunday, September 11, 2022.

At least 10 aides and police escorts have been reported dead in the attack.
