Human rights activist assaults female police orderly for refusing to do domestic chores (Videos)
Police have arrested an Abuja-based legal practitioner and human rights activist, Professor Zainab Duke Abiola, and her housemaid, Rebecca Enechido, for beating up her female police orderly, Inspector Teju Moses, over her refusal to carry out
menial and domestic chores.
According to a statement by the Force Public Relations Officer, CP Olumuyiwa Adejobi, IGP Usman Alkali Baba has directed the express prosecution of the arrested suspects who are currently in police custody.
He said “The Inspector-General of Police, IGP Usman Alkali Baba, psc (+), NPM, fdc, has strongly condemned the
grievous assault of a female police officer, Inspector Teju Moses, by her principal who is a legal practitioner and human rights activist, Professor Zainab Duke Abiola, and her domestic staff comprising the housemaid, one Rebecca Enechido, and a male suspect currently at large.
“Zainab Duke, an Mbaise-born activist, grievously assaulted her orderly in the 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.
“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, Professor 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.
Adejobi said the IGP has ordered the withdrawal of all
police personnel attached to the professor, and expressed consternation at the fact that an individual who claims to be an advocate for Human Rights could stoop so low as to violate the rights of another individual, a police officer tasked with
ensuring her protection.
