Court remands professor in prison over alleged attack on police orderly  

In a video clip that went viral on Wednesday, the officer was seen seated on the floor and asking to be taken to the hospital for medical attention while bleeding.

Force Public Relations Officer, CSP Muyiwa Adejobi, had confirmed the incident, saying the IGP ordered the professor arrest.

At the court on Friday, the professor was denied bail while the matter was adjourned till October 5, 2022.

The magistrate also ordered that she should be remanded in Suleja Prison pending the adjourned date.

Earlier, Abiola had denied assaulting the officer, saying it was strange that the IGP would forcefully violate “the fundamental rights and liberties of a distinguished law- abiding citizen and proceed to forcefully take her pictures and maliciously publish same in the print and electronic media in this nascent democratic dispensation.”
