Trending Video Of Moment House of Reps Member Assaulted Uber Driver

The viral video of a member of the House of Representatives representing Aba North & South Federal Constituency, Alex Mascot Ikwechegh, allegedly assaulting a driver of an e-hailing company in Abuja has emerged.

The video which went viral in the early hours of Monday captures the lawmaker angrily confronting the driver, who he said disrespected him by asking him to step outside to receive his parcel.

The situation escalated when he was shown to have hit the driver repeatedly while allegedly threatening to “make him disappear” without consequences.

The video has drawn condemnation across social media, with many accusing the member of the house of exploiting his position as they insist justice must prevail.

He felt he disrespected him. A simple please bring in inside the house, just normal courtesy. He felt an ordinary Bolt driver should lick his ass. Stupid classism.”

ChuksOhaxx opined: “God don butter this guy bread.. find better lawyer and sue that man joor. Life changing opportunity with evidence. Lmao.”

Seankleann reacted: “Even if he sues for assault, as a member of the House of Representatives, I dont think the @PoliceNG will do justice to this case. I strongly doubt the outcome favoring that Uber Driver, do you know why? Bcos he’s a NOBODY. Just watch how the matter would be swept under the carpet.”

HeDontMakeNoise noted: “I will make you disappear and nothing will happen” ke??? This is enough to ruin his political career permanently but… You can already see ret@rded Nigerians, who are so in love with their chains, trying to justify these shameful actions.”
