I was the one attacked by the police,they try to kill me,Ait reporter and other journalists were there. It was reported by Ait and other national print medium. To turn around and accuse harmless me of lies is rediculous. But this time they will be shocked bc i know too much.

The lawmaker has a case in court for allegedly supplying arms to thugs in Lokoja, the capital of Kogi.
But he has since denied the allegation.
