Amnesty International Nigeria has called for the investigation of  Senator Elisha Abbo for reportedly assaulting a yet to be identified lady in a sex toy shop in Abuja.

In a series of Tweet on their official handle, the agency said that the assault video which has gone viral is enough for the Nigerian police to act.

Amnesty also pointed out that Abbo reportedly threatened to unleash more violence on the victims if the incident got to the public.

In the video, the senator representing Adamawa North Senatorial District at the National Assembly was seen repeatedly hitting a woman for speaking back at him.

The clip obtained by Premium Times also showed the senator threatening to deal with the lady mercilessly in the presence of a police officer who rather than assist the victim, arrested her.

Abbo, who is the youngest senator in the country, had entered the shop around 6 pm on May 11, a Saturday. The senator walked in with three young women to purchase adult toys.

The tweet reads;

“Amnesty International is calling on Nigeria Police @PoliceNG to investigate Senator Elisha Abbo (Adamawa North) for alleged assault on staff of an adult shop he patronizes in Abuja. Video of the senator assaulting women is widely available for police to act.

“Senator Elisha Abbo, in company of 3-women, in an adult shop in Abuja assaulted women wildly in the presence of police @PoliceNG. This must be investigated. Victims of his violence must get justice.

“What is known so far on Senator Elisha Abbo’s assault on women:
-He went shopping in an adult shop with 3-women.
-He summoned police that joined him while assaulting a lady.
-He slapped her 3-times
-The woman he assaulted was treated in hospital for injuries.

“Reports say, Senator Elisha Abbo threatened to unleash more violence on the women if the incidence got to the public. It is resposibility of police @PoliceNG to now protect victims from further of his violence. This must be investigated. The senator must face justice.

“#Nigeria: Enough of rape. Enough of violence against women. Enough of injustice. Enough is enough.

“Senator Elisha Abbo is not above the law. Police @PoliceNG must investigate allegations against him. Victims of his assault must get justice. @MBuhari @ProfOsinbajo @NGRSenate @unwomenafrica @WRAPANG @stelladamasus @FakhuusHashim @obyezeks @FunkeBaruwa @buky @AishaYesufu…”
