The Nigeria Police Force says is aware of the incident between a Bolt driver, Mr. Stephen Abuwatseya, and Hon. Alexander Ikwegh, a House of Representatives Member from Abia state which took place on October 27, 2024, in Maitama, Abuja.
The Nigeria Police in a statement via its Facebook handle on Monday 28th October,2024 disclosed that The Federal Caoital Territory (Abuja) Command is actively handling the case following Mr. Abuwatseya’s official report at the Maitama Divisional Headquarters.
The Police Force in the statement 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.
Recall that the House of representatives member had slapped the bolt driver three times and vowed to make him disappear for refusing to come down to give him(House of Reps member) the package he(bolt driver) came to deliver rather asked the house of reps member to come and collect the parcel.
