GUNMEN suspected to be hired assassins today killed the Labour Party candidate for Onuimo Local Government Area in the Imo State House of Assembly, Christopher Elehu.
The gunmen also set his country home ablaze and destroyed his property including a motorcycle.
Reports say that the suspects struck in the early hours of Friday and shot for over two hours.
It was gathered that the gunmen, who were on rampage, also visited the houses of other politicians in the area but met their absences.
