Court orders remand of SSS operative for assaulting police officer

-


A Gudu Upper Area Court, Abuja, on Thursday ordered the remand of a State Security Services personnel, Yusuf John, for allegedly assaulting a police officer.

Mr. John, 35, was docked on a two-count charge bordering on criminal force and assault, offences he denied committing.

The judge, Umar Kagarko, ordered that the defendant be remanded in police custody till January 29, to ascertain the true condition of the victim, allegedly beaten-up by the SSS operative.


The prosecutor, Augustine Urom, had told the court that Irieme Aigberadion, a police sergeant, attached to Lugbe Division, FCT Command, reported the matter at Garki Police Station on Jan.27.

He said the complainant, at about 6 p.m. on the same day, together with his team, went to Lagos Street, Garki, to wash their patrol vehicle.
“In the process, he saw the defendant beating one Gift Utti, of Garki 2, a commercial sex worker.
“He went to separate him and stop the beating of the sex worker,’’ Mr. Urom said.

The aftermath of assault and violence leaves a profound mark on victims, both physically and psychologically. His shirt was left disheveled, hair tousled, and expressions frozen in a mix of confusion and  shock as he grappled with whether to plead, escape, or simply endure the onslaught of blows that landed in his face.  It was 3 years ago, Popular Anambra-based pastor, Chukwuemeka Odumeje, known as ‘Indaboski Bahose the Liquid Metal,’ got manhandled by security agents in Onitsha. Odumeje, a sole individual, had attempted to protest the demolition of his church by  a team of government officials accompanied by armed security personnel . The widely reported incident, in which Odumeje was publicly subjected to inappropriate treatment by security personnel, garnered considerable public attention.  But rather than addressing the injustice of the experience he suffered, much of the public discourse centered on his lack of supernatural response. Many questioned why Odumeje...

Ignore all machinations, Sola Ebiseni remains the Governorship candidate of Labour Party. Once again, the Labour Party Campaign Organisation is inundated with calls on the purported replacement of Chief Sola Ebiseni, our Governorship candidate, with Ayo Olorunfemi less than 24 hours to the Ondo State Governorship election tomorrow. Contrary to the false report, the candidacy of Ebiseni was the decision of the Party presided over by the National Working Committee led by Julius Abure of which Ayo Olorunfemi is a member after the latter, who was a placeholder, voluntarily withdrew his candidacy backed with sworn affidavit, an undisputed fact confirmed by the Courts. For the umpteenth time and avoidance of doubt, Ayo Olorunfemi was not a party to any of the cases either at the High Court or the Court of Appeal and his Appeal as an Interested party was dismissed. There is no subsisting order of any court directing the INEC to remove or replace the name of Chief Olusola Nehemiah Ebiseni and ...
