Nine suspects have been arrested over the attack on a former governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN), Professor Charles Soludo.

This is according to the Governor of Anambra State, Willie Obiano, who stated this on Wednesday at the Dora Akunyili Women’s Development Centre in Awka, the state capital, assuring that other suspects will be apprehended.

“What happened last month is unfortunate. But let me tell you, we have re-strategised and we are coming out like a smoking gun,” Obiano said.

“We are not going to take prisoners. The nine people that attacked professor Soludo are in our net now. We will go after the others.

“We are not going to take prisoners any longer. A special squad has already been put together, and they are already working everywhere.”

Gunmen had on March 31 stormed a rally Soludo organised at Isuofia community, Aguata Local Government Area of the state, gunning down three of his security aides.

Following the attack, the bandits also kidnapped the Commissioner for Public Utilities, Emeka Ezenwanne.

Soludo, a chieftain of the All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA), is one of the frontline aspirants of the Anambra State governorship election scheduled for November 6.
