The Chairman of the Code of Conduct Tribunal, UMAR DANLADI has been caught on camera physically assaulting a security guard at Banex Plaza in Abuja.
In a five-minute video that has gone viral, DANLADI was seen slapping and kicking the yet-to-be-identified security guard, while police officers suspected to be attached to him were trying to restrain him from attacking the guard.
But reacting to the video in a statement, CCT spokesperson, IBRAHEEM AL-HASSAN, said the security man was rude and had threatened UMAR over where to park his car.
According to the statement, the young security guard could provide a reasonable explanation why UMAR could not park his car at a particular empty space.
In the video, the crowd around the scene was heard shouting "Go away, go away, oga go inside your car, respect yourself.
AL-HASSAN claimed some miscreants in the crowd threw machetes and sharp objects at Umar's car, which led to a deep cut and dislocation in one of his fingers, while damaging his car and windscreen.
