Adeh noted, that the lawmaker was being questioned over what transpired between both parties.

According to the statement, “Preliminary investigations indicates that Mr. Abuwatseya was delivering a package to Hon.Ikwegh when a dispute across concerning the method of delivery. During the altercation, Abuwatseya was reportedly physically abused.

“The FCT police command expresses concern over Hon. Ikewechegh’s dismissive attitude towards the Inspector General of Police following the incident. After allegedly slapping the victim, he reportedly remarked with contempt ‘you can go ahead and call the Inspector General of Police’, demonstrating a troubling disregard for the authority of law enforcement.

“Currently, the suspect is at the Maitama Police station undergoing questioning”- The statement reads.

Streetnews reported that the bolt driver had gone to the residence of the lawmaker to deliver snails which he had ordered. On arrival, he called the lawmaker to get his product.

Ikewechegh who was said to be agitated by the call suddenly accused the driver of insulting him, by not bringing the snails into his residence.

The bolt driver argued that it was not his duty to bring orders into people’s residence but insisted on getting his money for the delivery.

Angered by his response, the lawmaker slapped the bolt driver, and attempted in using a stick to assault him.
