EKO HOT BLOG reports that Abia Central Senatorial district Candidate of the All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA) in the 2015 and 2019 general elections, Ahamdi Nweke, escaped death earlier this month when gunmen attempted to assassinate him.
Nweke was lucky to have escaped the assassins’ bullets without sustaining any gunshot injury, but his driver was not so lucky as he sustained a serious gunshot injury.

Nweke was attacked in front of his country home in Isiala Ngwa South Local Government Area of the state by the gunmen who had laid siege in front of his home without his knowledge.
Speaking to Vanguard in a report published on Tuesday, Nweke said but for providence, he would have been dead.
“I could see that some of the bullets could not penetrate. They just made cracks but some pierced through the window without the glass falling off,” he narrated.
“At that point, I couched behind the front seat, and all I was hearing were: ghoam! Gboam! And I was shouting, John reverse, reverse into the road!
“But my driver was shouting: Daddy they have shot me. Luckily he still had the mind to reverse and sped at high speed but was unable to control the steering. And I leaned forward and engaged the drive but the car was moving right and left.”
