Social media influencer and blogger, Martins Otse, VeryDarkMan, has filed a petition against Alex Ikwechegh, a member of the Abia Federal House of Representatives.
The petition alleges serious offences, including abuse of power, assault, attempted murder, and threats to life. It was signed by VeryDarkMan’s lawyer and activist, Deji Adeyanju.
The federal lawmaker was seen assaulting a Bolt driver, Mr. Stephen Abuwatseya, in a recorded video which has now gone viral.
Speaking with VeryDarkMan on Monday, the driver said Ikwechegh called Police officers who bundled him to their station.
“After the video, he called some Police officers, I don’t know the division they are assigned to, they bundled me to the station. They didn’t allow me to take my calls.
“I was taken to the IPO’s office, who spoke to him outside the office. After the call the IPO said he was going to do investigation at the honourable’s (Rep member) house in Maitama.
“They kept me behind the counter for over two hours. After the IPO returned from his house, he asked me why I recorded the Reps member.
“The honourable came to the station and started calling me names. I left the station at 3:00 am and my car is still at the station.”
