The Federal Capital Territory, FCT, Police Command has launched investigation into a reported attack on the governorship candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, for the forthcoming Anambra State election, Jude Ezenwafor.

It would be recalled that Ezenwafor survived an assassination attempt on his life in Abuja on Friday night when gunmen suspected to be assassins attacked and shot him.

Ezenwafor was subsequently admitted in an undisclosed private hospital in the nation’s capital for medical treatment.

Reports of the Anambra PDP candidate’s death had emerged online on Sunday.

However, it was gathered that Ezenwafor is currently battling for life.

When contacted, the FCT Police Public Relations Officer, SP Josephine Adeh told newsmen that the command had launched an investigation into the incident.

She, however, said the “true position and situation surrounding the incident” cannot be ascertained at the moment.
