The governorship of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Imo State, Samuel Anyanwu, on Saturday, was allegedly attacked in the state.
The attack took place in the Ikeduru Local Government Area of Imo State.
According to SaharaReporters, the convoy was ambushed by heavily armed men who opened fire on his convoy from all directions around 5 pm.
Some of his aides were said to have sustained varying degrees of injury.
Senator Samuel Anyanwu is said to have managed to escape.

Meanwhile, Anyanwu has called for the cancellation of the off-cycle election.
Naija News understands that Anyanwu made the demand while addressing journalists at a press conference.
He said INEC and security agents failed in their constitutional responsibility to deliver credible elections to the people of the state.
He said that instead, the security agents protected INEC staff as APC members rewrote the results.
Anyanwu vowed not to accept the results of the poll.
He said, “I have evidence that one of the thugs is a member of the House of Assembly.
“In the process of snatching the ballot boxes, the lawmaker’s Identity Card fell off, and I have it here with me.
“I call on INEC to consider the available evidence and cancel the results of elections in the affected areas.”
