The news emanating from Enugu, the coal city is not a palatable one. It is about how unknown gunmen, suspected to be members of Indegenous Peoples of Biafra(IPOB) gruesomely murdered Dr Chike Akunyili, husband of the late public health expert and former NAFDAC boss, Dora Akunyili.
The Message International reliably gathered that Akunyili was returning to Enugu from a meeting in Onitsha, Anambra state when the gunmen opened fired on his vehicle, killing him instantly with his driver and police orderly.
The remains of the deceased were deposited at the hospital ahead of burial and police investigation.
Dr. Akunyili was the Chief Executive Officer of one of the biggest hospitals in Enugu, known as St Leo’s Hospital.
He graduated first class and spent his professional career treating citizens across the country, including many on charitable grounds.
