Senate President Ahmad Lawan, has expressed shock over the murder of former Speaker of Adamawa House of Assembly and chieftain of  All Progressives Congress (APC), Ahmed Gulak, in Owerri,Imo .

Lawan said this in a statement by his Special Adviser on Media, Mr Ola Awoniyi  on Monday in Abuja, describing the murder  as one crime too many.

He called for a swift investigation aimed at bringing all who involved in the crime to justice.

According to him, there can be no justification for the brutal murder of a human being and fellow citizen.

Lawan, however, appealed for restraint on the part of those calling for revenge, saying they should allow relevant authorities to serve justice on the matter .

The Senate President condoled with the family and friends of the departed as well as the government and people of Adamawa on the incident.
