The Newspaper Distributors Association of Nigeria,
Akwa Ibom state chapter, has threatened to sue a
former senator from Akwa Ibom state, Anietie Okon
for publicly assaulting a newspaper vendor, Ndifreke
Etim.
The association has asked Okon to tender a public
apology to Etim or be sued, Premium Times reports.
Okon was said to have
slapped the newspaper
vendor multiple times
somewhere around the
banquet hall of the state
Government House.
The incident reportedly took place last Wednesday
during the swearing-in ceremony of the paramount
ruler of Ibeno local government area, Awong Effiong
Achianga as the chairman of Akwa Ibom state council
of traditional rulers.
Narrating what happened, Etim said he was hawking
newspapers near the entrance door of the banquet hall
when the former senator came out from the hall and
walked past him towards his car. He then suddenly
stopped midway and asked him to come.
According to him, he thought Okon wanted to buy
newspapers and so he ran to meet him. He was
however shocked when he got a ‘hot slap’ instead from
the senator.
Etim said: “When he finished slapping me, he accused
me of stealing his wallet. But God knows I am not a
thief, I sell newspapers to take care of myself and my
family. He didn’t even search me to see if I had his
wallet on me or not .”
He noted that two other vendors who witnessed what
happened begged Okon to stop molesting him, while
three able-bodied young men who were with the
former senator just stood by to watch.
Etim stated that he sustained bruises from the assault
and spent N4,000 to treat himself.
He added that he was yet to fathom why Okon decided
to pick on him.
The vendor, who said he spent N4,000 to treat himself
of bruises sustained from the incident, said he could
not figure out why the former senator picked on him.
When contacted, the former senator said: “I don’t want
to respond to such an issue.”
