An assassination attempt on the Caretaker Committee Chairman of Wukari Local Government Area (LGA), Daniel Aguyu, has been thwarted by the Police in the north-eastern state of Taraba.
The Taraba State Police Commissioner, Shaba Alkali, made the disclosure while briefing reporters on the security situation in the state after the election tribunal judgment that sparked off protests in some parts of the state.
Alkali explained that two suspects were apprehended in the premises of the LGA boss in an attempt to kill him following a tip off by some informants.
Wukari LG has been in the news for the wrong reasons in recent times with the latest being the reaction to the election tribunal judgment, in which seven people died in the aftermath of the announcement.
The Police boss promised that the command was determined to bring culprits and their sponsors in Taraba State to face the wrath of the law.
