A video of a member of the House of Representatives, Alex Ikwechegh, assaulting a Bolt driver during the delivery of a package to him at his residence in Maitama, Abuja, has emerged online.
Naija News reports that the driver had filmed the altercation between him and the Reps member representing Aba North & South Federal Constituency on the All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA) platform.
The lawmaker repeatedly slapped and insulted the driver for telling him to come out and get the snail the driver was meant to deliver to him.
In the footage, Ikwechegh insisted that the request was disrespectful given his social status while threatening to make the driver “disappear” without facing any consequences.
When the driver requested the delivery fee, the politician slapped him multiple times, querying the driver if he knew who he was talking to.
Realizing he was being filmed, Ikwechegh dared the driver to film him properly and call the Inspector General of Police.
Part of his words reads, “Do you know who I am? I can make this man (driver) disappear in the whole of Nigeria and nothing will happen. Can you imagine this rat? I am not going to give this boy one naira of my money.
“I am not going to call my policemen to beat you up, I will do that myself. I will show that I am a big brother to you, tie you up, lie you down and put you in my generator house. Do you know where you are? Because you saw me sitting outside here. Look at this monkey.
“Do you know who I am I just slapped you and there’s nothing you will do. My name is Honourable Alex Ikwechegh, tell them (public) I slapped you. Call the Inspector General of Police that I slapped you, let him come. Record me very well.”
