Adelani Adepegba, AbujaThe Commandant- General of Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps, Muhammadu Gana, has condemned the killing of the Action Alliance Imo senatorial district candidate, Mr Ndubuisi Emenike, by an NSCDC operative. He revealed that the suspect had been arrested and handed over to the police for investigation and prosecution. The erring operative who was the security aide to Emenike reportedly shot the politician dead while firing in the air during a party to celebrate the electoral victory of an All Progressives Congress candidate during Saturday’s rerun election in Imo State. But speaking while briefing the Corps management at the NSCDC national headquarters, Abuja, the CG described the killing of the politician as unfortunate. He also condoled with the family of the deceased as well as the people of Imo State and Nigeria in general.
