Ejike Ugwueze, a local government council chairmanship aspirant in Enugu, has reportedly been shot dead by gunmen. The deceased, who was vying for the chairmanship position of Isi-Uzo Local Government Area, was a member of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), the ruling party in Enugu State.
The tragic incident occurred while Ugwueze was driving through Neke Odenigbo, a community in Enugu East Local Government Area. The assailants reportedly blocked his vehicle and shot him multiple times before fleeing the scene.
A video circulating on social media shows Ugwueze lying lifeless in his Lexus SUV, which bore several bullet holes.
Ejike Ugwueze was the brother of Chijioke Ugwueze, who died in June 2020 while serving as a member of the State Assembly. Following Chijioke’s death, his wife, Amaka Ugwueze, was elected to replace him in the House of Assembly.
