Unknown gunmen assassinated an APC chieftain and former aide to ex-President Goodluck Jonathan, Ahmed Gulak in Imo state.

Gulak was reportedly shot dead by unknown gunmen on Saturday night, May 29, while returning to Abuja from Owerri, the capital of Imo state.

Reacting to the news, President Muhammadu Buhari said; “Let me warn that nobody or group of people who engages in such despicable acts should expect to go free. We’ll deploy all resources at our disposal to ensure that such callous and criminal elements are brought to justice”.

Unless, and until relevant agencies begin to hold persons accountable for their crimes, others will be emboldened to tread the same path of criminality.

I condemn the assassination of my old friend & former Special Assistant to @GEJonathan, Ahmed Gulak, in Owerri this morning.The cowards trailed him, targetted him, identified him & killed him.This was the handiwork of skilled professionals. May the soul of Ahmed rest in peace.

Nigerian Police announced withdrawal of vip police escorts, and they still blame Ahmed Gulak for moving without escort?

I think pressmen should stop asking the Nigeria police about crime, they’re as irresponsible as Buhari. https://t.co/qmVcohXHOW

If we allow ourselves to be deceived into a state of crises again, we will tow the road of destruction & everybody will feel the pain. I hope we are sensible enough to look beyond politics & ethnicity , in order for us and our children to inherit a workable Nigeria. #NeverAgain

Never really understood what Gulak went to do among strange political bedfellows.

I remember he oversaw the Imo State primaries that produced Hope Uzodinma and it was so controversial he had to announce the result in Abuja and Oshiomhole kicked against it.

God rest his soul.
