Governor David Umahi of Ebonyi State has sacked two of his aides allegedly involved in a murder during the Peoples Democratic Party councillorship primaries on February 21.

The governor also directed the police command in the state to arrest the two aides for possible prosecution.

The directive was contained in a statement signed and issued by the Secretary to the State Government, Dr Kenneth Ugbala, in Abakaliki on Sunday.
