Abuja – The Inspector-General of Police, Usman Alkali Baba, has strongly condemned the grievous assault of a female Police Officer, Inspector Teju Moses, by
Prof. Zainab Duke Abiola and her domestic staff ; a house maid, Rebecca Enechido and a male suspect who is currently at large.

Baba made the condemnation in a statement issued in Abuja on Thursday by the Force Public Relations Officer, CSP Oumuyiwa Adejobi.

The IG-P expressed shock that Zainab Duke Abiola, a Legal practitioner and human rights activist can descend so low to assault the female police officer simply because of her refusal to breach professional ethics by carrying out menial and domestic chores at her house.

It will be recalled that Zainab Duke Abiola, an Mbaise born activist, grievously assaulted her orderly in company of some accomplices on Tuesday 20th September, 2022 at her residence in Garki, Abuja.

Consequently, the IGP has directed the express prosecution of Zainab Duke Abiola and other suspect who are currently in Police custody.

“The preliminary investigation shows overwhelming evidence of culpability on the part of the Professor and her domestic staff.

“The IGP has equally tasked the investigative team to ensure that the fleeing suspect is arrested and made to face the wrath of the law.

“It is pertinent to clarify that the suspect, Prof. Zainab, who name-drops the IGP, his family members, and other officers in the top hierarchy of the Force has no acquaintance with the Police in any form as erroneously peddled on social media,” Adejobi said in the statement.

According to him, the Inspector-General of Police has ordered the immediate withdrawal of all Police personnel attached to the Professor.

” He expressed consternation at the fact that an individual who claims to be an advocate for Human Rights could stoop so low to violate the rights of another individual, a police officer tasked with ensuring her protection,” the statement said. (vitalnewsngr.com)
