A Human Rights Lawyer shared the picture of the EFCC official that had the audacity to slap the wife of Dr. Innocent Ifediaso Chukwuma [INNOSON]. The Activist Lawyer wrote this on his wall:
“Assuming , arguendo [without conceding] that Dr. Innocent Ifediaso Chukwuma [INNOSON] committed a crime necessitating his arrest by the EFCC operatives, what could have emboldened this fellow to land a slap on the cheek of INNOSON’s wife amidst the ensuing melee? The Deputy Senate President, Distinguished Senator Ike Ekweremadu raised this troubling issue on the floor of the Senate which the Nigerian Senate roundly condemned with a remarkable unanimity. After roundly condemning the mess the EFCC sprinkled on the INNOSON establishment, the President of the Nigerian Senate rounded up the debate in these punchy words:
“This does not speak well for the country. How a private transaction has become the business of the EFCC is what I do not know. I have not seen the FBI intervene between people involved in a transaction. We are just making a mockery of the institution.”
If this fellow is the culprit that slapped INNOSON’s wife [In any event, the Commission owes the Nigerian nation an abiding duty to identify the correct person assuming he is not the culprit], the authorities must set a loud example of him. Together, we can #ENDIMPUNITY.”
Groups are already calling on Innoson’s wife to file a suit against the EFCC for their actions.
