Anambra Governor Chukwuma Soludo has said the attackers and killers of Senator Ifeanyi Ubah’s convoy and aides have been arrested by the security operatives.
Though he didn’t disclose the number arrested, he vowed that gunmen perpetrating such acts in Anambra State would not go unpunished.
He said when he assumed office, the security situation in the State was very terrible with over 15 camps set up by the gunmen from which they operated.
Soludo spoke at the weekend on government-owned radio during a phone-in programme in Awka.
He said: “I was tough in my resolve to find a solution because light and darkness cannot cohabit together.
“Those criminals who attacked Sen. Ifeanyi Ubah, some of them have been arrested but full briefing in that regard shall be given in detail. The others who attacked vigilantes and military personnel, they can run but can’t hide. It’s only a question of time. Each day, we get closer in apprehending them.
“Anambra must be calm and secure! We are ready to help these criminals if they make up their mind to stop crime. We will help and empower them.
“Communities have lots of responsibilities to do. Any youth who attains quick wealth, interrogates and investigates him on how he accumulated such sudden wealth.
