The All Progressives Congress (APC) has suspended the commissioning of its South-east zonal secretariat over the recent murder of a chieftain of the party, Mr. Ahmed Gulak.
Former Senate President and Chieftain of the APC, Senator Ken Nnamani, stated this in a press release he signed and made available to journalists.
Nnamani, who is also the South-east representative and member National Caretaker/ Extraordinary Convention Planning Committee of the party, said the suspension was in honour of Gulak, who he described as a loyal party man.
The press release stated: “In honour of Mr. Ahmed Gulak, who was gruesomely murdered recently, we have decided to postpone the official commissioning of the South-east APC Zonal Secretariat to a future date.
“Gulak was a notable stalwart of our party and a very good friend of many of us from the South-east Chapter of the APC.
“We condemn, without mincing words, the murder of Gulak and call on security agencies to unravel the circumstances surrounding his death.
“We equally condemn the uncivilised acts of destroying government properties and attacks on uniformed operatives. All utterances and conducts capable of inciting people must be discontinued.”
Gulak was killed in Owerri, Imo State, on Sunday morning as he made his way to the Sam Mbakwe Airport to catch a flight to Abuja.
