Also dragged along are the Commissioner of Police, Imo State Command, Mr. Mohammed Ahmed Barde and the Chief Personal Security Officer to the Governor, Superintendent of Police Adamu Shaba Gboyako.
In the petition, the CUPP Spokesperson fingered the Imo State Governor, the Commissioner of Police in Imo State and the Chief Personal Security Officer to the Governor.
He said he was tipped off of the role played by the Chief Personal Security Officer to the Governor of Imo State, Mr. Shaba Adamu, in the attack on his house in Umukegwu, Akokwa in Ideato North Local Government Area on the 7th February, 2023.
Ugochinyere said that the purpose of the attack was to assassinate him based on his political views.
Ugochinyere also accused the Imo State Police Commissioner for refusing to investigate any of the three attempts on his life, adding that it was obvious that he knows those behind the attacks.
He further mentioned the Special Adviser to Governor Hope Uzodimma on Special Duties one Chinasa Nwaneri as part of the plot.
In his prayers in the petitions, Ugochinyere sought thorough investigation, disciplinary actions, prosecutions, visa ban, and inclusion on watch list among others on any person found wanting or culpable in the three attacks on him on 23rd December, 2022, 14th January 2023 and 7th February, 2023.
