Police Spokesperson Relieved Cab Driver’s Apology to Lawmaker Wasn’t Made at Police Station
Lagos State Police spokesperson, SP Benjamin Hundeyin, has expressed relief that Stephen Abuwatsaye, the cab driver allegedly assaulted by House of Representatives member Alex Ikwechegh, did not issue an apology at a police station or before the case went to court.
The incident in Abuja, which occurred two weeks ago, drew public attention when Stephen recently released a video offering an unreserved apology to the lawmaker for “provoking” him.
Stephen’s apology video, in which he cited personal forgiveness and a desire for God’s mercy, sparked mixed reactions online, with some speculating that he may have been pressured.
In response on X (formerly Twitter), Hundeyin acknowledged the speculation but noted he was grateful the video wasn’t made under police involvement, as it would likely have led to criticism against the police force.
It was reported that bandits were seen in Kwara State and abducted six residents from Rukpete Village.
The incident was reported to have occurred on June 8 at about 11 p.m.
Sources revealed that seven people were initially taken, but an elderly man was later released, leaving six victims in captivity.
The rising cases of insecurity in the country remain quite alarming.
The state of the country is affecting many people, as they believe nowhere is safe, including schools where they keep their children.
It has been reported that some parents have started withdrawing their children from schools in Abuja.
It can be noted that rumours of bandits being sighted near a school triggered panic, causing parents to hurriedly remove their children for safety.
While the reports of bandits have not been confirmed, the school has also issued safety measures to ensure the protection of students within the premises.
It has been rumored that bandits have made their way to Lagos, and allegedly they were spotted in Ibeju-Lekki, where some residents became suspicious of them and reported the matter.
A clip of the group of men went viral online, and many people became concerned. Whether true or not, fear has been sparked among Lagosians as they worry that bandits may already be in the state. Even if the reports remain unconfirmed, many believe it is still a possibility worth paying attention to.
