Prof. Zainab Duke Abiola, an Abuja based lawyer and human rights activist and her house maid, Rebecca Enechido, have been arrested on the orders of the Inspector-General of Police, IGP Usman Alkali Baba, for “the grievous assault of a female Police Officer, Inspector Teju Moses”, serving as an orderly to Prof. Abiola.
Force Public Relations Officer, CSP Olumuyiwa Adejobi, disclosed this in a statement issued today, Thursday, September 22, 2022. He added that another suspect, a male domestic staff of the Prof. Abiola, is currently at large.
“Zainab Duke, an Mbaise-born activist, grievously assaulted her orderly in company of some accomplices on Tuesday 20th September, 2022 at her residence in Garki, Abuja, due to the refusal of the orderly to breach professional ethics by carrying out menial and domestic chores at her house.
“The IGP has directed the express prosecution of the arrested suspects who are currently in Police custody, as 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,” CSP Adejobi said.
“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.
“The Inspector-General of Police who similarly ordered the withdrawal of all Police personnel attached to the Professor, 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 Forece PRO said in the statement.
