A yet-to-be identified orderly assigned by Nigeria Police Force (NPF) Headquarters to one Professor Dike Zainab has been hospitalized after she was allegedly assaulted at the behest of her boss in Abuja.
According to reports the incident happened on Wednesday, September 21.
In a now-viral video posted by Deji Adesogan on Twitter, the orderly claimed she was beaten by the maids to the Professor Zainab.
“She told her boys to kill me,” she said incoherently.
In the video, she was captured seated on a floor, with part of her face and uniform, covered with blood stains. All she kept asking was to be taken to the hospital to save her life.
“Reports of one Prof Dike Zainab of Area 11 in Abuja who allegedly assaulted her Police Orderly and also ordered her maids to beat her up. Thorough investigation & prosecution of the culprits will serve as deterrents to others. Totally inhumane & unacceptable!!!” Dejiadesogan captioned the video on Twitter.
Nigerians have reacted to the incident and called the attention of the NPF to the video calling for justice and the prosecution of the culprit.
