On Friday, Saudi Arabia’s ambassador to Nigeria unleashed terror on a
police officer on duty at the official residence of IGP MD Abubakar in
Maitama District of Abuja.
According to an eyewitness, the envoy
tried to pass through a barricade set infront of the IGP’s house but was
ordered to turn back by the policemen on duty.
He was politely
told to take another route due to security reasons however, Rajeh
insisted on using the route. He was reported to have forcefully ordered
the policemen to remove the barricade for his convoy to pass.
When
they turned down his request, he resorted to engaging the policemen in a
hot exchange of words using verbally abusive language.
At some point, the ambassador became infuriated and began punching one of the policemen on duty at the IGP’s house.
The
situation, our source further revealed, took another twist, resulting
in the Saudi ambassador rushing to a top presidency official for
intervention, apparently to stop the matter from getting out of hand, or
even arousing his superiors in Saudi Arabia.
