The Labour Party State House of Assembly candidate for Onuimo LGA in Imo state, Hon. Christopher Eleghu, was shot dead on Thursday by gunmen.
Hon. Eleghu aka WASCO was assassinated in his home late Thursday night.
His assailants also burnt down his house and cars.
This sad development is coming amidst a recent resurgence of attacks by suspected members of the Eastern Security Network(ESN) and IPOB.
Recall that LP House of Assembly member, Chukwunonye Irouno, died on Monday night in mysterious circumstances after he and other chieftains of the party had finished inspecting Kanu Nwankwo Sports Stadium in Owerri, the venue of their presidential candidate Peter Obi’s campaign rally in the state capital on Tuesday.
