Upon reading the news, Obi typical of him drove to Alor, Idemili South Local Government home of Ngige to pay a solidarity visit to his once political foe. 


The two went into a closed door session where Ngige shared moments that led to the incident and prayed for the repose of the dead victim while wishing the wounded, which included his police orderly and a store owner, quick recovery. 


Addressing the press shortly after the closed door meeting, Ngige confirmed that there was a casualty in the shooting incident.
