Joseph Omoniyi
The presidential candidate of the People’s Democratic Party, PDP in the last election, Atiku Abubakar has condemned the inhuman act by his party senator, Elisha Abbo who was caught on camera physically assaulting a nursing mother in a sex toy shop.
Atiku via a statement released on Wednesday asked the senator to tender a public apology and also submit himself to the police for investigation.
The former vice-president also demanded that the authorities of the party take disciplinarian measures against the young Adamawa lawmaker.
He wrote;
‘I have seen the alleged assault video involving Sen. Elisha Abbo. The video is sad, inexcusable. I know the Senator quite well. But the law is clear and leaders must lead by example.
I advise him to publicly apologize, voluntarily go to the police and show a good example expected of a young leader. I also call on our party, the PDP to take necessary disciplinary action and the Nigerian Police to ensure the law takes its full course. -AA’
