Alex Ikwechegh, the Abia federal lawmaker who assaulted an Abuja Bolt driver, is scheduled to be arraigned before the Kuje Magistrate Court at 12 noon today, Wednesday.

The probe and prosecution of Ikwechegh are being handled by the Inspector General of Police’s Special Investigation Unit.

Recall that the lawmaker, representing Aba North and South Federal Constituency in Abia State, was captured in a viral video physically assaulting the Bolt driver, Stephen Abuwatseya.

The incident occurred on October 27 when the driver was delivering a package to the lawmaker at a residence on Zamfara Crescent, Maitama, Abuja.

Nigerians have continued to react and condemn the lawmaker’s actions.

Amid the outcry, the embattled lawmaker apologized and promised to cooperate with the police in their investigation. He also disclosed that he was seeking counseling over his actions.

In a statement, activist lawyer Deji Adeyanju said, “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. The IGP’s Special Investigation Unit (SIU) is in charge of the investigation and prosecution.

“The media is invited to cover the arraignment, which is scheduled for 12 pm today at Kuje Magistrate.”
