Attack on Female lawyer – Police Panel report contains falsehood – WACOL
DAILY POST reports that four policemen from the Abakpa Area Command of the Nigeria Police Force had allegedly invaded the WACOL office in Enugu and brutally assaulted some of the staff on duty, including a female lawyer, Mrs. Goodness Ibangah.
In a reaction, the Executive Director of WACOL, Prof. Mrs. Joy Ezeilo who addressed a press briefing on Wednesday said the report contained contradictions. On why she did not appear before the Panel, the professor of law recalled that she had ab-initio rejected the membership of the panel. Ezeilo said the Panel having admitted in their recommendations that the police officers should be sanctioned, “we want to know what is the disciplinary action, by now they ought to have been suspended.“The police were unduly and corruptly enriched, that is why they invaded the WACOL office.
She said the attack on her continued even at the Area Command office where one of the police officers said they did not care if she died.
