Imo State Governor, Hope Uzodinma, has described the killing of Alhaji Ahmed Gulak, the ex-Political Adviser to the former President, Goodluck Jonathan, as politically masterminded vowing to bring the perpetrators to justice.
The Governor, at a press briefing Monday in Owerri, said the manner with which a politician was killed was unconnected to a political assassination.
According to the Governor, ‘Ahmed Gulak was in Imo State for a national assignment. He came to Owerri with the Senate Committee on Constitutional Amendment. Being a humble man, he chose to travel incognito according to his friend who was with him.

‘Someone must have trailed him from the hotel to the airport. That is exactly why his gruesome murder appears to be a clear case of political assassination.’

The Eastern Updates recalls that the former Political Adviser was also the committee chairman of Imo APC primary election in 2019 where he declared Senator Hope Uzodinma the governorship candidate of the party amid confusion.
