Emily Eric, wife of Senator,
Elisha Abbo has reacted to video of her husband caught on camera assaulting a
woman at a sex toy shop in Abuja.
The Peoples Democratic Party
(PDP) lawmaker, who is the youngest Senator in the ninth National Assembly, was
seen in a 10-minute video footage, repeatedly slapping a woman, after she
pleaded with him not to physically assault the shop owner whom the Senator had
accused of calling him a drunk.
The assault reportedly happened
on May 11, 2019, nearly three months after he became Senator-elect.
Reacting, in a post which she
shared on Facebook, Abbo’s wife, Emily Eric supported her husband, adding that
he is innocent of the crime.
She wrote: “I stand with you
babana. And we will always stand for truth.
“My husband is innocent of what
people are saying against him.”
Senator Abbo has since the viral
video appeared online, been under attack.
However, Abbo admitted that he is
the man in the video.
Abbo, speaking to the Daily Sun,
claimed the video was distorted, insisting that he was not a Senator at the
time of the incident and suggested that the footage was doctored.

Stupid illiterate woman, may he slap you to kaura namoda and back. If your husband is innocent, why the public apology?
