Abia lawmaker assaults delivery driver, threatens to ‘make him disappear’
A disturbing incident involving Abia federal lawmaker Alex Ikwechegh and a delivery driver has recently surfaced, capturing attention due to a video taken by the alleged victim.
In the footage, Mr. Ikwechegh appears to slap the driver twice and threatens to detain him in his generator house, claiming he could make him “disappear” without facing any repercussions.
The confrontation began when the driver, assigned to deliver a package, asked Mr. Ikwechegh to meet him outside to collect it.
Mr. Ikwechegh, reportedly viewing this as disrespectful, expected the driver to bring the package directly into his Maitama residence in Abuja.
The driver’s refusal to do so allegedly led to an escalation, resulting in verbal and physical aggression from Mr. Ikwechegh.
The driver remained calm despite requesting payment for his service, which further intensified the dispute.
As of this report, the lawmaker has not issued any public response regarding the incident.
