Mr. Victor Oba said to be cousin of former
first lady Patience Jonathan, has been
arrested by the Bayelsa State Police
Command over the attempted murder of his
ex-lover, Seigha Atia.

The suspect who is reportedly the manager of
the former first lady’s hotel 'Aridolf Hotels
and Spar', reportedly knocked down the lady
with his Sports Utility Vehicle (SUV), damaged
her leg beyond treatment and left her for
dead.

Recounting how the incident occurred, Atia
whose leg will reportedly be amputated said
Oba attacked her after she called off their
relationship.



She told The Nation;

“On the day of the incident, we had
an argument and he called me and
asked me to come outside of our gate
to get the rest of my things in his car.
He said he was driving to our area at
Ox-Bow Lake to come and give me my
things since I was no longer interested
in the relationship.

“He eventually showed up. He came
down from his car, reached for the
passenger seat, opened the door,
brought out two bags and handed
them over to me. I opened the bag
and I figured out my things weren’t
complete, and I told him some of my
things were not there and that I
would come and pick up the rest of
my things.

“At this point, he started screaming
saying he would not want to see me
close to his house. But I insisted I
would come to take other things he
did not bring to me.

“At this point, he was already in his
car. He started raining abuses on me,
calling me unprintable names. I
couldn’t take it. So, I responded. The
next thing, he drove his car into me
with speed. He hit me against our
gate, held me there and did not
reverse his car despite the fact that I
was screaming in pains.

“He later reversed and I fell to the
ground and he zoomed off. My
neighbours, who watched what
happened screamed for help and
came to my rescue.

“This relationship lasted for four
months. But I decided to quit when I
discovered that he was a violent
person. He had hit me once, that was
when everything started to take a
nosedive.

“I can’t walk for now, probably I will
never walk with this leg. They would
have amputated this leg earlier today.

But they referred me to a specialist
hospital in Port Harcourt. They want
to see whether something could still
be done and it must be done very
fast before it gets to my knees.

“I’m devastated, but I’m fine, i will
rise above it. I feel bad, I didn’t think
someone could go this extreme”.

Also commenting on the incident, the victim's
sister Preye said they are still shocked that
the former first lady's cousin could carry out
such violent act.



She said;

“We are still shocked. We cannot
believe this is happening at the same
time I’m tired. I have not slept, am
still exhausted.

“I was in the house when I heard a
bang on the gate. I felt it was just
someone who normally hits the gate
or something, then I heard voices,
and I knew my sister went out and I
saw her on the floor, blood on her
leg, I just ran to her, I was screaming,
I just picked her up and luckily she
was conscious.

“She told me Victor was responsible
for what happened to her. The
witnesses around there said he hit
her and zoomed off. They had a
misunderstanding; he insulted her
then she responded, then he hit her,
that was what eyewitnesses said.

“I don’t have so much confidence in
the Police because of who the guy is.
They called us and tried to settle, but
we cant accept such settlement
because right now my sister is at the
verge of having her leg amputated.

“We want justice. This was an
attempted murder, we want justice,
we want things legally done the right
way”.



Bayelsa State Police Spokesperson, Asinim
Buswat who confirmed the incident said the
suspect was arrested for attempted murder
and would be transfered to the Criminal
Investigations Department of the Police
Command.

Chaiiii....Chaiii....Victor Chaiii.......Diaris God o

wow

This is the real Nigeria. People that have connections with ordinary dpo of a local police station will be power drunk and feel on top of the world how much more somebody that has connection with a former "first lady". That is why some call this country a zoo or a shithole. Funny enough, he may even go free, despite this
