“The All Progressives Congress has expressed shock over Sunday morning’s barbaric killing of Barrister Ahmed Gulak, an APC chieftain in the Imo state capital, Owerri.
“The Party joins Nigerians to mourn his death and condemn his murderers in the strongest possible terms.
“We commiserate with his immediate family as well as the government and people of Adamawa State. He was a shining political leader and patriot.
“The APC and all well-meaning Nigerians is calling for national unity to fight crimes in the country and urge relevant security agencies to leave no stone unturned in their efforts to track down and swiftly bring the perpetrators of this crime to justice."
Meanwhile, Shehu Sani, a former senator representing Kaduna Central has reacted to the murder of Ahmed Gulak, a former political aide to ex-president Goodluck Jonathan.
Sani, who reacted to the tragedy in a series of tweets on Sunday, said it is time to track the unknown gunmen down and take action.
The former lawmaker lamented that road travellings in some parts of the country have become a dangerous expedition and a hellish experience.
Also, a group, Nigeria First, has commended President Muhammadu Buhari over his choice of Major General Farouk Yahaya as the new chief of army staff.
The group in a statement signed by its vice-president, Leonard Aluor, and seen by Legit.ng said the appointment of Yahaya as a successor to the late Lieutenant General Ibrahim Attahiru who died in an ill-fated air crash is applaudable.
