Ezenwafor has since been receiving treatment at an undisclosed hospital in the nation’s capital.
“I’m currently in the hospital. The doctors are making efforts to operate me so that they can pull out bullets from my body,” Ezenwafor told Leadership newspaper on Saturday.
The PDP and the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) Police Command have yet to speak on the incident as of press time.
