Former presidential aide Ahmed Gulak has been killed in Owerri, Imo state
He was reportedly ambushed and shot early hours of Sunday morning enroute the Sam Mbakwe airport after concluding a visit to the state
Gulak was a special adviser on political matters to president Goodluck Jonathan prior to his defection to the All Progressives Congress APC in 2014
He was also the chairman of the Imo state APC governorship primary in which Hope Uzodinma emerged the party’s candidate
Gulak’s daughter Muneera has also confirmed this in a tweet earlier today
I just lost my dad please put him in your Dua. Thank you as you do so. Allaahummaghfir li (Ahmed Ali Gulak) warfa' darajatahu fil-mahdiyyeena, wakhlufhu fee 'aqibihi fil-ghaabireena , waghfir-lanaa wa lahu yaa Rabbal-'aalameena, wafsah lahu fee qabrihi wa nawwir lahu feehi
