Hon. Smith Chiedoziem Anyanwu, the chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) for the Ife/Akpodim/Chokoneze Ward in the Ezinihitte Mbaise local government area of Imo State, was slain by as-yet-unidentified gunmen.
The opposition party has been placed into mourning, as revealed by Lancelot Obiaku, the Director General of its New Media Center, and fear and anxiety have descended upon the population.
