Lawmaker who assaulted bolt driver, Granted ₦‎500,000 Bail by shortgun(m): 7:13pm On Oct 30, 2024
House of Representatives member, Hon. Alex Mascot Ikwechegh, appeared before an Abuja Chief Magistrate Court in Kuje on Wednesday, facing charges of allegedly assaulting a Bolt driver at his Abuja residence.

Representing the Aba North and South federal constituency in Abia State, Ikwechegh pleaded not guilty to the First Information Report filed by the Nigerian Police Force.

The charges include abuse of office, assault, and issuing threats to life.
Following Ikwechegh’s plea, prosecution counsel Mr. A. Umar requested a trial date to begin a full hearing.


In response, the lawmaker’s counsel requested bail, arguing that the charges were bailable and that the constitution guarantees his presumption of innocence.

Magistrate Abubakar Umar Sai’id granted the bail request, setting conditions at N500,000 with 2 sureties

If he was a poor man, the would have remanded him before granting bail. Nigerian laws only work for the poor.

Kudos to the Nigerian Judiciary.

However if you choose to behave like an animal......we will rehabilitate you.

angry Only 500k bail, for someone that can make another disappear

That alone is threat to life. This man should be serving serious Jail term.

if Nigerians VISITs the Morgue more than they do RELIGIOUS places, they would learn to calm down. All these "Do Yo KNOW Who I Am" for someOne that could lay useLessly the next split of second.

Nigerians will make you disappear from that house of rep and nothing will happen.

We will see who the real magicians are.

Too small, though with this public outcry, he will behave himself going forward.

Though some animals are more equal than the other, but yet all animals are equal.
