Alex Ikwechegh, the federal representative for Aba North and South in Abia State, is scheduled to appear before the Kuje Magistrate Court at noon today over an alleged assault on a Bolt driver, Stephen Abuwatseya.
The incident, which occurred on October 27, has sparked widespread criticism, fueled by a viral video showing Ikwechegh in a physical altercation with Abuwatseya.
The Inspector General of Police’s Special Investigation Unit is leading the investigation into the case, following public demand for accountability from the lawmaker.
Prominent human rights activist and lawyer Deji Adeyanju, who is representing Abuwatseya, confirmed the court appearance and urged the media to cover the proceedings.
“We are on our way to Kuje Magistrate Court for the arraignment of the honourable member who assaulted our client, Mr. Steven, a Bolt driver,” Adeyanju stated.
In the wake of the controversy, Ikwechegh has issued a public apology, expressing regret for his actions.
“I am deeply remorseful for my actions and am committed to taking responsibility,” he said.
The lawmaker also disclosed that he is receiving counselling to address his behaviour, which he acknowledges has caused harm.
The arraignment is a closely watched event, with Nigerians hoping for justice and a demonstration of accountability by public officials.
The court’s ruling is anticipated as a potential landmark for cases involving misconduct by elected representatives.
