A chieftain of the ruling party, All Progressives Congress APC in the Federal Capital Territory Abuja, Pastor Benjamin Imeogu, has been murdered by unknown gunmen with his wife and son currently battling for their lives.

According to reports, Imeogu who was the Chairman of the APC panel on the conduct of the National Assembly primaries in the FCT, was attacked along the Nnamdi Azikiwe airport road in Abuja last Thursday, November 16th. He was reportedly shot five times on the chest at close range.

The deceased, his wife and three children were reportedly returning back from church, The Transforming Church, Galadimawa, when they were attacked. His wife and one of his sons are left in critical conditions as bullets passed through their stomach while the remaining two children escaped with minor wounds.
