He must be prosecuted.

Your lying government said they have detained the senator.

Detaining him without charging him with assault and battery immediately will simply be acting up a movie script.

Better, he should be arrested.

Watch his apology press release video below, doesn't look like someone that's sorry.

looks like he was reading a speech to me Sha, anyways he will make a good actor but common man your speech didn't reflect ur disposition. Yes we shouldnt judge based on ur 5mins action but ur choice of words in this speech reveals more about you...... I will say remember this lessons and never repeat dis mistake.

A good development, but our use of words in this country shaaa, what do you mean alleged assault, when there is video evidence of the assault and no denial from the principal actor in the assault?

exactly. The offense is bailable so why make detaining him a big deal.

Police please, tell Nigerians the truth that Senator Elisha Abbo is relaxing in a comfortable room with Ac instead of been detain as you said?. If,he is not been detain as ordinary citizen that means, your bias in discharging your constitutional roles simple. Let him be treated as every other citizens of the country in the cell where mosquito and cold is available to tap into his skin please. The man didn't deserve sympathy at all.

Can you be realistic for once? That he was detained alone says a lot

Remember the victim didn't report him nor file a case against him.

Can he be charged without the victim filing a case against him or she already did?

While it is within the province of ecclesiastical doctrine to forgive sinners, we must avoid allowing those who transgressed our criminal laws to escape punishment they richly deserve on mere apologies.

I wonder whether the apologies would remedy the slaps received by the hapless woman.

Our humanity has been degraded. Will the apologies atone for the criminal conduct of battery and assault he repeatedly meted out to the woman?

I think this senator is playing on the emotional intelligence of Nigerians. Nigerians, being who we are, easily forgive and forget wrongs done to us. That is why our society remains backward. The absence of sanctions is what makes this great country live in poverty in the mist of abundant resources.

How can a man in his right senses slap a woman and hope to get away with it because he thinks Nigerians are quick to forgive?

The criminal justice system will be suffering injustice and ridicule, if this man is not prosecuted. The senator must also pay compensation to the lady he assaulted.

Apologies, though accepted, are not enough to atone for the show of shame and criminality displayed in the video,

Many thanks to Premium Times for breaking the story.

But there was a protest against him and the evidence is not deniable

Protest is just protest

Filing is what brings about charges

Someone that will soon be released without being punished for his sin.

Except this is not Naija

If the girl wants punishment and compensation she should sue, with the media drive this case has gotten, the senator will be at her mercy..

they should also detain that useless policeman that arrested the lady. i will like to know what he charged her with before arresting her.
Re: Police Detain Senator Abbo Over Alleged Assault by mrLhanray(m): 10:04am On Jul 05, 2019
the masses are now using social media to fight against oppressors, this is the last hope of a common man in Nigeria.
The guy should be charged to court. pls its not about not to young to rule, cos its their children and other family members that are filling up the position. its about creating working institutions, no matter who you are once you break the law, you must be punished, be it corruption, harassment, assault, stealing, fraud . . . you must be punished for it, that's the only way for this country.
A unified voice will make them do the will of the masses, even if it won't favour these politicians.

unfortunately, CCTV won't carry quality audio, so senator is damned.
