The Nigeria Police Force on Monday, said it was fully aware of an incident where a member of the Federal House of Representatives representing Aba North and Aba South Federal Constituency, Hon. Alex Ikwecheghi assaulted a Bolt driver in his residence in Abuja.
The Police said the Bolt driver, Mr. Stephen Abuwatseya, had reported the incident which took place on October 27, 2024, in Maitama.
A statement by the Police stated that the FCT Command is handling the case following Mr. Abuwatseya’s official report at the Maitama Divisional Headquarters.
The Police Force also urged the public to refrain from using the name or office of the Inspector-General of Police to intimidate others, as such actions undermine the values of impartiality that the IGP’s office upholds.
A video of the incident between the Reps member and the bolt dispatch rider has been trending on social media showing how the Reps member slapped the rider and threatened to make him disappear without trace.
