President Muhammadu Buhari on Friday strongly condemned the gruesome killing of the Labour Party, LP, senatorial candidate for Enugu State East Senatorial District, Chief Oyibo Chukwu, and his aide.

Buhari, in a statement by his spokesman, Femi Adesina, believes that the perpetrators of this ignoble act have no respect for human life and dignity.

According to him, the culprits deserve the wrath of divine and natural justice.
