Delta State Governor, Senator Ifeanyi Okowa, has condemned the gruesome murder Dr Uyi Iluobe, in a hospital in the state.

The deceased was alleged to have been attacked and killed by the relatives of his patient at a hospital in Oghara in Ethiope West Local Government Area of the state.

In a statement by his Chief Press Secretary, Mr Olisa Ifeajika, in Asaba, the governor said that the act of Iluobe was barbaric and reprehensible.

He charged the security agencies to intensify investigation into the dastardly act, and that they should leave no stone unturned to fish out his assailants and bring them to justice.

Okowa said that the killing of the medical doctor was unjust and unprovoked, adding that it was an act by agents against peace and progress in the state, and should be flayed by every well-meaning Deltan.
